Most of us will probably admit to the occasional little white lie. But in fact, more than one in three people tell at least one lie every day.

大多数人或许都承认，我们偶尔说些善意的谎言。但事实是，超过三分之一的人每天至少会说一个谎言。

It turns out that the fairer sex are the biggest fibbers of all. According to a survey, a shocking four in five women tell lies on a daily basis.

Some women even admit to doing so as many as 30 times a day - the equivalent of twice every waking hour, a survey has revealed.

This compares with two out of five men who said they tended to tell lies every day.

Fortunately the picture is not as bleak as the statistics imply. People said they mainly shied away from telling the truth to avoid hurting other people's feelings.

The biggest reason they lied was to 'make someone feel better' (55 per cent). This was followed by 'to not get into trouble' (32 per cent) and one in four put it down to the fact that 'life is complicated'. 'Proving a point' and 'saving face' were also common reasons to skirt around the truth.
