38、e flame wars that are Internet comment threads. But psychologists say this addictive form of vitriolic (刻薄) back and forth should be avoided or simply checked by online media outlets because it actually damages society and mental health.A perfect storm of factors come together to cause the rudeness
39、and aggression seen in the comments sections of Web pages, said Markman, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. First, commenters are often nearly nameless, and thus, unaccountable for their rudeness. Second, they are at a distance from the target of their anger be it the ar
40、ticle theyre commenting on or another comment on that article and people tend to go against distant abstractions more easily than living, breathing talkers. Third, its easier to be nasty in writing than in speech, hence the now somewhat out-of-date practice of leaving angry notes (back when people u
41、sed paper), Markman said. And finally, Edward Wasserman, Knight Professor in Journalism Ethics at Washington and Lee University, noted another cause of the vitriol: bad examples set by the media. “Unfortunately, mainstream media have made a fortune teaching people the wrong ways to talk to each othe
42、r. People understandably conclude anger is the political vernacular (行话) , that this is how public ideas are talked about,” Wasserman wrote in an article on his universitys website. “It isnt.”In Markmans opinion, media outlets should cut down on the anger and hatred that have become the model in rea
43、der exchanges. “Its valuable to allow all sides of an argument to be heard. To a greater degree, someone who is making a reasonable point but with an angry tone is hurting the nature of the argument, because they are promoting people to respond in a similar way,” he said. For their part, people shou
44、ld seek out actual human beings to communicate with, Markman said and we should make a point of including a few people in our social circles who think differently from us. “Youll develop a healthy respect for people whose opinions differ from your own; the back-and-forth negotiation that goes on in
45、having a conversation with someone you dont agree with is a skill and its not easy to master it,” Markman said.58. Why do psychologists encourage people to stop attacking each other online? A. The social problems are too complex to figure out. B. The online media outlets will review the comments. C.
46、 The action does harm to society and individuals. D. The Internet users are easily attached to hot topics. 59. What can we learn from the analysis by Markman?A. People are cautious to make vitriolic remarks online.B. The targets online are more likely to be commented on. C. Understanding the literal
47、 meaning is easier than oral language. D. An argument with an angry tone can promote its power.60. What is the authors main purpose in writing the passage? A. To show different ways of expressing opinions. B. To reveal the severe problems of the public media. C. To raise the awareness of proper comm
