流言和閑話
你從一個(gè)朋友那里聽(tīng)說(shuō)了一個(gè)有趣的故事，你的朋友是從另一個(gè)朋友那里聽(tīng)說(shuō)的，你朋友的朋友又是從大廳里的一個(gè)人那里聽(tīng)說(shuō)的，大廳里的那人是從數(shù)學(xué)課上傳來(lái)的一張紙條上知道了這件事，紙條可能是某個(gè)人剛編造出來(lái)的。
流言和閑話很有可能充滿著你的學(xué)?；蛏鐓^(qū)。這是非常正常的。畢竟，每個(gè)人都會(huì)扯閑話，甚至是父母、名人、政治家。它是我們與他人交流、與他人生活保持聯(lián)系的一部分。但是流言和閑話有什么區(qū)別呢？
流言是一條未經(jīng)證實(shí)的消息或故事，也就是說(shuō)，說(shuō)這條消息或故事的人不知道它是真是假。它可能是真的，也有可能部分是真的部分是編造的，或者完全是編造的。
而閑話就有些不同了。閑話是一些“有趣”的談話，也就是說(shuō)，它涉及駭人聽(tīng)聞或私人的話題。閑話經(jīng)常談?wù)撘恍┲T如愛(ài)情、關(guān)系的事或人們不在公眾場(chǎng)合談?wù)摰碾[私。當(dāng)一條閑話被證實(shí)是假的，很簡(jiǎn)單，這就是謊言。如果有關(guān)某人的一條閑話是真的，那它仍舊會(huì)傷害到別人因?yàn)檫@些信息是私人的、隱秘的。
有時(shí)候，流言和閑話是無(wú)害的，但是有時(shí)候它們可能對(duì)個(gè)人、友情和整個(gè)一群人造成傷害。你知道嗎？散布流言閑話其實(shí)就是欺負(fù)當(dāng)事人。
Lesson70 Rumour and Gossip
You hear a juicy story from a friend， who heard it from another friend， who heard it from a person in the hall， who read it on a note passed in math class， which was written by somebody who probably just made it up．
Chances are， rumours and gossip are always floating around your school or community． That's totally normal． After all， everyone gossips...even parents， celebrities， and politicians． It's part of how we communicate and stay connected with other people's lives． But what is the difference between a rumour and gossip?
A rumour is a piece of information or a story that has not been verified， meaning that the person telling it doesn't know if it's true or false． It might be true， it might be partially true and partially made up， or it might be totally made up．
Gossip， on the other hand， is a little different． Gossip is talk that is somehow “juicy，” meaning it deals with subjects that are shocking or personal． Gossip is usually about things like love and relationships， or private things that people don't talk openly about． When a piece of gossip is known to be false， it's a lie， plain and simple． If a piece of gossip about somebody is true， it can still be very hurtful because that information may be private and personal．
Sometimes， rumours and gossip are harmless， but at other times they can be very hurtful to individuals， friendships， and whole groups of people． Did you know that spreading rumours and gossip about someone is a form of bullying? Yes．
