In more traditional times they shook entire families. Today, they travel differently because the way we share information has also changed. The fact is that rumors have great potential to upset things, whether socially or personally. We don39。t enjoy being on the receiving end of one, since they usually don39。t have good intentions. They are somewhat veiled (掩飾的) messages. Normally rumors are oral messages: word of mouth. The paradox (自相矛盾) is that there is no evidence to support rumors, but the more people share it, the more they see it as true. To finish explaining rumors, we think that they follow certain very clear laws. Secrecy: The source is unknown. There is also a proven phenomenon that human beings usually forget the source of a message before they forget its content. Certainty: We hardly question rumors simply because of the mental effort involved. On the other hand, no one likes to doubt a person who convinces us that the information they spread is true. Change: It acts like a tree. New rumors branch out to fill in the gaps left by the first rumor. Another property (屬性) of rumors is that they tend to bee viral. Each receiver is at the same time a potential transmitter (傳輸者) of the information. The receiver often adds their own opinion. Their manner and tone of transmitting it also changes it. How can we end rumors? The answer is as simple as it is impossible: preventing people from municating. A more realistic response is equally difficult, although less than the first one. It is that we should be critical of the information we receive. We should ask ourselves if the source is reliable. Ask (if possible) the person you heard it from whether they also trust the information. We should also think about if the rumor benefits someone, and if that someone started the rumor. One rumor to be especially cautious of is a rumor about groups relatively unable to defend themselves. That39。s why we say, History is always told by the winners. The first payment the defeated must make is to accept the victor39。s version of the story.（1）What can we learn about rumors? have all heard some and believed them.39。re happy to be the receiving end of them. may have negative influence on society. often hide good intentions in the messages.（2）How are rumours like a tree? keep changin
