>>托福写作：2017年托福考试写作范文素材：诚实和善意的谎言

素材段落

As the truth is sometimes difficult to confront, there are times when a white lie or the absence of some key facts becomes appropriate. The problem is that people have different standards for when, why and how the truth is shaped. Thesedivergences will unavoidably cause miscommunications, breakdowns of trust and other dysfunctional behaviors. That is why white lies are common under some circumstances. For example, when children receive low grades in a math examination, their parents usually encourage them by telling them that they have worked hard and what they lack is just a bit of luck. In this case, parents attempt to avoid hurting their children’s feelings and confidence by 'hiding the truth', and, in the process, they support their children in an unwavering way.
