问题12
How do most people detect lying?
A recent study overturned what we know about lying. Most of us have a theory about how to tell if someone is telling a lie.
overturn 推翻
We may develop that theory from observation of those people we know well and see regularly, but we tend to generalize what we gather from that unscientific daily research and make a universal theory.
universal theory 通用的理论
So we might imagine that lairs have evasive eyes or the opposite, they simply stare at you.
evasive 不坦率的 模棱两可的 逃避的 规避的

Or perhaps it is more generally nervous behavior, we are associated with lies. Whatever the particular theory, it is usually based on close observation of people we know.
On average, we are lied to some 200 times per day. These are mostly harmless lies.
问题14
But lies nonetheless. But there is a problem with our theory, even though they're based on observation, the average person, you and me, tested rigorously on how well we detect lies——fails to do better than chance.
nonetheless 无论如何
rigorously 严厉地
fails to do better than chance
未能比偶然做得好,即大部分情况下都是偶然观察出撒谎

That's well established over many studies. And lots of attempts by researchers to work out reliable ways to detect lies. It's even relatively easy to fool lie detectors, the gold standard of lie detection by training yourself in breathing techniques and symptom suppression. Is there any way to get better at detecting lies? The new research offers some surprising advice. Stop looking and listening instead. It turns out that if we are unable to see the face, but rather focus on the voice of the person in question, our accuracy rate improves considerably.
symptom suppression 症状的抑制
