How to avoid conflicts Arguing with @ partner, family member, or co-worker can be a lot of things: informative, helpful, destructive, or hurtful. Most people would agree that conflict is exhausting, If you're looking to avoid con- flict, there are immediate things you can do to stop a fight from happening and ways to prevent fights down the road. 17. If your partner has instigated the fight, or has responded irrationally to your concerns, verbalize this. For example, say, “I realize this issue is really important to you", or "I know you don't think my idea is any good, but I do”. 18. Make this conversation as emotionally sta- ble as possible, no yelling or blaming. Instead, make your points brief and specific. It will be easier for the other person to respond to spe- cific instances, than broad generalizations or accusations. While this may be hard, limit the conflict to one or two main issues. 19. You should be actively listening to what the other person says, Listen to what she or he’s re- ally trying to tell you, whether or not it's what you ‘want to hear. Dor't rush the other person to talk. Letting her bring up concerns at her own pace will make her feel respected and listened to. 20. If you don't agree with what she's is say- ing, validate her concerns, rather than arguing with her, It may be helpful to take a few mo- ments to gather your thoughts before respond- ing. This will keep you from accidentally saying ‘something hurtful. 21. This is just as important as avoiding yell- ing, cursing, or name calling. Avoid crossing your arms, pointing fingers, hiding your hands, or not making eye contact. These can signal an unwillingness to talk. https://weew.wikihow.com/Avoid-Conflict A_ | Use humor |B _| Give the other person a chance to speak C_| Calmly discuss one another's concerns _| Put yourself in the other person's shoes D E__| Respond tothe other person with respect | F _| Plan your body language Plan important discussions S [H_JAcknowledge the other person concerns Test 1 | Yactua “UnTanHAtTASK 5 answers on the separate answer sheet.

Write your The Great Mammoth Hoax According to most accounts, woolly mammoths became extinct thousands of years ago. But in Octo- ber, 1899 a story titled “The Killing of the Mammoth” appeared in McClure's Magazine in which a narrator named H. Tukeman described how he had recently hunted down and killed what was possibly the last surviving mammoth in the Alaskan wilderness. ‘According to the tale, Tukeman was travelling through Alaska in 1890. At Fort Yukon he met an old Indian named “Joe”. He showed Joe some pictures from a scrapbook, and one of the pictures happened to be of an elephant. Seeing the picture, Joe became excited and began to tell Tukeman of how he had ‘once seen a similar creature living in a nearby moun- tain valley. ‘Tukeran determined to find the creature the old Indian had described. He hired an Indian guide, and together the two men travelled to the location de- scribed by Joe. Sure enough, they found the creature still there, bathing in a mountain river. The creature was nothing less than a woolly mammoth: “There he ‘stood in a little clearing, the great beast that only one other living man had seen, tearing up great masses oflichenous moss and feeding as an elephant feeds.” Working on the premise that the creature would be attracted to smoke, the two men built a large bonfire, and, as expected, the mammoth eventually rushed over to inspect the blaze.

Then they roasted and ate some of the meat, finding it “not unpalatable, but terribly tough” This tale as it appeared in McClure’s Magazine was pure fiction, and was labelled as such in the magazine's table of contents. Nevertheless, huge numbers of readers were fooled by the realistic tone of the narrative and wrote both to the magazine and to the Smithsonian expressing outrage that the last mammoth had been shot. So many people wrote in that the magazine had to publish a statement in a subsequent issue explaining that “The Killing of the Mammoth" had simply been a work of fiction. Their statement read as follows: "The Killing of the Mammoth” by H. Tukeman was printed purely as fiction, with no idea of misleading the public, and was entitled a story in our table of con- tents. We doubt if any writer of realistic fiction ever had a more general and convincing proof of success: 23.

Everybody loves to play board games sometimes, but itis surprising to know how long this pastime has been in existence. Some of the earliest board games are over five thousand years old. The oldest is proba- bly Senet, an Ancient Egyptian game which has been found in burials from before 30008C. ‘The game involves an element of luck, and so it was thought by the Ancient Egyptians that those who won the game were protected by the Gods. For this reason, games of Senet were often buried alongside the body in the grave, to be used on the dangerous journey to the afterlife. The game can also be seen on a number of paintings in tombs. The game board is set out as a grid of three by ten rows, and uses two sets of at least five pawns. The actual rules are un- known, although some historians have proposed rules Which are used in the Senet sets available today. 22. Which of these would be the best title for this passage?

Although the ancient rules are un- known, a stone tablet has been found which depicts a reliable record of how the game was played in 177-176 BC. Both Senet and The Royal Game of Ur are prob- ably predecessors to the game backgammon, which itself has a long history. The game of Nard, which existed in tran in around 30008C, used two sets of fifteen counters, four dice and same board as the one used in backgammon today, although the ini tial starting positions and rules are different.

It has recently become quite pop- ular to order omelettes made with egg whites only, (33) Because of their supposed health ber- efits, and because the yolk is high in fat and choles- terol, the whitesare in high demand and the yolks are being tossed aside.
