The first payment the defeated must make is to accept the victor39。 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. 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.t enjoy being on the receiving end of one, since they usually don39。 ve all spread some. In more traditional times they shook entire families. Today, they travel differently because the way we share information has also changed.Rumors (謠言): we39。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，句義猜測和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，要求考生準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時(shí)根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。由此推斷簡化軟件開發(fā)可能會導(dǎo)致意料之外的結(jié)果。 （4）考查推理判斷。因此霍華德說No. Greek.
