Initial cnversatins can greatly influence hw relatinships develp ver time. Peple ften feel wrried abut the impressins they think they left after talking t smene fr the first time: “Did they really like me, r were they just being plite?” “Were they interested in ur chat, r just feeling bred?”
T check whether these wrries are reasnable, ur team did nearly 10 years f research. In ur studies, UK participants talked with a stranger they had never met befre. After their chat, they were asked hw much they liked their partner and hw much they thught their partner liked them. This let us cmpare peple’s beliefs abut being liked with hw much they were actually liked.
Again and again, we fund that peple left their cnversatins with bad feelings abut their perfrmance. In ther wrds, peple underestimate hw much their cnversatin partners enjy talking with them — a wrng belief we call the “liking gap”.
This bias might seem t nly appear in first talks, but its influence ges much further. Surprisingly, the liking gap can keep affecting many kinds f relatinships, including wrk cnnectins with cwrkers, lng after the first cnversatin. A larger liking gap is linked t being less ready t ask wrkmates fr help, less ready t give hnest feedback t them, and less ready t wrk n future prjects tgether.
There are many ways t reduce this biased feeling. One simple way is t change where yu fcus yur attentin. Try t pay mre attentin t yur cnversatin partner, shw real curisity abut their life, ask mre questins, and listen carefully t their answers. The mre yu fcus n the ther persn instead f yurself, the better yur chat will be, and the less yu will wrry abut the things yu think yu did wrng.
4. What d peple usually wrry abut after their first cnversatin with a stranger?
A. Whether they made a gd impressin n the partner.
B. Whether they can meet the partner again sn.
C. Whether they talked t much during the chat.
D. Whether they shared t much persnal infrmatin.
5. What is the “liking gap” accrding t the research?
A. The difference between hw much peple like themselves and hw much thers like them.
B. The difference between hw much peple think they are liked and hw much they are actually liked.
C. The difference between hw much peple like their partner and hw much their partner likes them.
D. The difference between hw peple feel in initial cnversatins and in later wrk interactins.
6. Which f the fllwing is a result f a larger liking gap in wrk relatinships?
A. Being mre willing t wrk n new prjects with cwrkers.
B. Being mre ready t give hnest feedback t wrkmates.
C. Being less willing t ask clleagues fr help.
D. Being mre active in building clse friendships with partners.
7. What is ne way t reduce the liking gap accrding t the article?
A. Fcus mre n yur wn perfrmance during the cnversatin.
B. Avid asking t many questins t the cnversatin partner.
C. Pay mre attentin t the cnversatin partner and listen carefully.
D. Try t talk mre t make the cnversatin lively and interesting.

Cnflict in cmmunities ften falls int tw main types: task cnflict and relatinship cnflict, and it can be hard t tell them apart smetimes.
Task cnflict arises when grup members hld different ideas abut what needs t be dne. It shws up in disagreements ver a grup’s cre matters: its gals, task pririties, r hw decisins are made. Task cnflict is manageable as lng as peple realize the disagreement is abut the wrk itself, nt the individuals. T slve this kind f tensin, cmmunity members need t let everyne’s vice be heard and respected. Slving task cnflict calls fr empathy and emtinal intelligence, thugh this desn’t mean the final decisin must include every pinin. After discussin, everyne shuld feel they had a fair chance t speak and that their ideas were taken seriusly.
Relatinship cnflict is trickier because it hits a persn’s sense f self-wrth. This kind f cnflict usually starts under tw cnditins: first, peple have clashing values r basic assumptins, and secnd, neither side can lk past their wn prejudices. In shrt, everyne believes they are cmpletely right and refuses t change their psitin.
In relatinship cnflict, peple see the ther persn as the prblem and attack them persnally. Each side thinks mst peple are n their side and that the ther is acting ut f selfishness. This leads t disagreements nt fr the sake f the task, but just t prve the ther persn is wrng.
Smetimes cnflict begins with a task issue — like preferring different tls r ways f wrking. If this early argument is ignred r handled prly, simple task cnflict can turn int mre cmplicated relatinship cnflict. When relatinship cnflict happens, peple ften react withut thinking, instead f stpping t reflect n the results.
It’s imprtant t remember that cultures differ in hw they deal with cnflict. In sme cultures, peple think it’s dishnest nt t face a disagreement penly, while in thers, such direct talk abut cnflict is seen as unacceptable.
8. Hw can task cnflict be managed well?
A. By talking abut persnal feelings penly.
B. By listening t different views with respect.
C. By cllecting as many pinins as pssible.
D. By keeping discussins shrt and clear.
9. What d we learn abut relatinship cnflict?
A. It centers n task-related differences.
B. It includes persnal attacks and criticism.
C. It leads t direct pwer struggles.
D. It values lgic mre than empathy.
10. What des the authr emphasize in the last paragraph?
A. Disagreement is unavidable in cmmunities.
B. Disputes shuld be slved in a timely way.
C. Culture can easily fix cmmunity cnflict.
D. Ways t slve cnflict are different acrss cultures.
11. What is the best title fr the text?
A. Slving Grup Cnflicts
B. Understanding Different Opinins
C. Dealing with Cmmunity Tensin
D. Knwing the Types f Cnflict

A study has fund that children with strng family bnds are clsely cnnected with a high chance f flurishing in life. “What makes this study stand ut is that it prves family cnnectin is linked t children’s flurishing, nt just surviving r aviding harm,” said Dr. Rbert Whitaker, the lead researcher f the study.
Researchers surveyed mre than 37,000 kids acrss 26 cuntries. In this research, family cnnectin was measured by an average scre f five areas: warmth, encuragement, security, value, and invlvement. Flurishing was measured by an average scre f six areas: self-acceptance, life purpse, psitive relatinships, persnal grwth, life skills management and independence. The cre f family cnnectin is that kids feel they are accepted and lved at hme, which lets them learn their strengths and weaknesses in a safe space while building their self-identity, Whitaker explained.
Accrding t the study, children with the strngest family cnnect in were ver 49% mre likely t flurish cmpared with thse with the weakest family cnnectin. The highest scres in bth family cnnectin and flurishing came frm children wh said they lived with bth parents, had enugh fd and never saw their family wrry abut mney. Researchers then adjusted the data fr families’ pverty levels t remve the influence it might have had n the results. Even after adjusting the data, the strength f family cnnectin still had a clear effect n hw much children flurished.
Accrding t Whitaker, adults have a strng influence n the emtinal atmsphere at hme, s it’s key t create a place where children feel nticed and listened t. A great chance t build strnger family ties is during mealtimes. Adults shuld make an envirnment where kids feel free t speak their minds. While kids are talking, grwn-ups shuld shw they truly care abut what their children are saying. Quiet time is als a pwerful way t cnnect, Whitaker said. Spending quiet time tgether r even ding husewrk can help create a deep family cnnectin.
