2
The Limits of Lying.
3
Lying is a part of human nature, but how far will people go?
4
Psychologist Dan Ariely became interested in dishonesty about 15 years ago.
5
During a long-distance flight, he came across an IQ test in a magazine.
6
He answered the first question and checked the answer key to see if he got it right.
7
He then took a quick look at the next answer before looking back at the quiz.
8
He continued in this way through the whole test.
9
Not surprisingly, he scored very well.
10
When I finished, I thought, I cheated myself, he says.
11
So why did he do it?
12
Presumably, I wanted to know how smart I am, but I also wanted to prove I'm this smart to myself.
13
The experience led Ariely to develop a lifelong interest in the study of lying and other forms of dishonesty.
14
To find out more about lying habits, Ariely developed a series of studies known as the Matrix Experiments.
15
In the experiments, volunteers completed a test with 20 simple math problems.
16
They were given five minutes to solve as many as they could.
17
For each correct answer, they were told they would receive a sum of money.
18
When the time was up, the volunteers counted the number of problems they solved correctly.
19
They were then asked to destroy their answer sheets in a shredder.
20
After reporting their own test scores, they were paid accordingly.
21
However, there was something the volunteers didn't know.
22
Their answer sheets were never actually destroyed by comparing actual test
23
scores to reported scores arieli's research team found out how many volunteers lied
24
and how much they lied by the results of the 40 000 people who participated in the experiment nearly 70
25
percent lied about their test score.
26
On average volunteers said they solved six problems but it was closer to four.
27
The results are similar across different cultures.
28
Most of us lie but only a little.
29
The question Ariely finds most interesting is not why
30
so many of us lie but rather why we don't lie a lot more.
31
In one version of the experiment participants were offered significantly more money for each correct answer.
32
However, this did not cause them to cheat more.
33
Here we give people a chance to steal lots of money and people cheat only a little bit.
34
So something stops us, most of us, from not lying all the way, Ariely says.
35
The reason, he believes, is that we want to see ourselves as honest
36
because honesty is a value taught to us by society.
37
This is why most of us place limits on how much we lie.
38
We may be able to come up with an excuse for taking post-it notes from an office fairly easily.
39
But it is much more difficult to come up with an excuse for taking $10,000," Ariely explains.
40
The extent of our lying is determined largely by what is acceptable by society.
41
Cheating is easier, he says, when we can justify our behavior.

Who Will Benefit from This Video?

This video is ideal for intermediate English learners focusing on IELTS speaking practice or honing conversational skills. It balances engaging content with accessible language, making it perfect for those working on comprehension, vocabulary expansion, and critical thinking. The discussion of Dan Ariely's research provides rich material for practicing complex ideas—key for exams or real-world communication.

Words & Idioms Worth Stealing

  • Presumably: Used to suggest a likely reason (e.g., "Presumably, she missed the train").
  • Come up with: To think of an idea or excuse (e.g., "He couldn't come up with a good reason").
  • Place limits on: To set boundaries (e.g., "Parents often place limits on screen time").
  • Justify: To explain why something is acceptable (e.g., "She tried to justify her lateness").

These phrases are versatile and common in academic and everyday speech, making them essential for shadowspeak practice—repeating phrases aloud to build fluency.

How to Get the Accent Right

The speaker’s clear, moderate pace makes this video great for the shadowing technique. Focus on stress in multi-syllabic words like "dishonesty" (dis-HON-es-ty) and "significantly" (sig-NIF-i-cant-ly). Notice how the speaker pauses after introductory phrases ("In the experiments," "However,") to emphasize key points—mimicking this rhythm will improve your shadow speech flow. Also, practice the reduced "wanna" in "I wanted to" to sound more natural. Repeat short segments, pausing and replaying, to match the speaker’s tone and intonation—this trains your mouth and brain to produce authentic English sounds.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
