But thanks to etiquette (礼仪) expert and author William Hanson, we realize that little has

11、 changed during the past 100 years.In a BBC radio program, Hanson released a list of common words used in British English that could reveal whether a person is “common” or “fashionable”.And yet here comes the interesting part: While some of us might go through life using fancy words, dressing in way

12、s that make us appear more well-off than we really are, there are wealthy people in the world who try to hide their riches because they want to be seen as “normal” instead of “showy”.Beatrice, for example, is a New Yorker who inherited (继承) millions of dollars.

13、as a habit of removing the price tags (价签) from her clothes so her house staff dont see them and feel uncomfortable.“We dont want that Wow.” said Scott, also a New Yorker, who had just inherited over $50 million. “Were just not the type of people who wear it on our sleeve.”1、What does William Hanson

While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of

17、.A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason this happens is because the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart, crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, ma

18、king it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You wont feel any immediate effects, but if you sit for long periods of time its important that you take note of how long you have your legs crossed for. You sho

19、uldnt have your legs crossed for more than 15 minutes, and its important that you get up and walk around at least once every hour.Crossing your legs can also lead to neck and back pain. Ideally, its best for our bodies to sit with our feet planted flat, hip width apart, on the floor, but its not eas

20、y to maintain perfect posture all day at the office. When you sit with your legs crossed your hips are in a twisted position, which can cause one of your pelvic bones to rotate. Since your pelvic bone supports your neck and spine, this can cause pressure on your lower and middle back and neck.You al

21、so might notice that when you sit with your legs crossed for long periods of time your feet and legs get tingly or have the feeling of being asleep. This is because when one leg sits on top of the other it causes pressure on the veins and nerves in your legs and feet. It can cause numbness and/or te

22、mporary paralysis in the legs, ankles, or feet. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floo

26、e as those viewed by your friends, family and other Internet users. But youd be wrong. Websites and social networks track your location and search history and make assumptions about your age, race, sex and political views. They then show ads they believe to be the most relevant, in order to maximize

27、 clicks, but personalize which results you see by eliminating what they think is irrelevant.This is sold to the public as positive, making each web session relevant and interesting, yet it is leading researchers to fear this could widen divides between the North and South, rich and poor, and young a

28、nd old. For example, in terms of wealth, if users are only ever shown particular products and job advertisements based on how much they earn or where they live, these users will never be given the opportunities to increase their wealth, or how much they spend on items.Princeton University has create

29、d bots（自动程序）, each with their own fake profiles. These bots have different fake ages and sexes, earn different levels of money, are virtually(虚拟地) based in various locations around the world and have different interests. By using these bots to scan and research the web, the researchers hope to creat

30、e a picture of not only what each of them sees, but also what sites they are missing out on.According to lead researcher, Arvind Narayanan, “Our goal is a web privacy census（普查）which will be a comprehensive map of who are collecting what information, what they are inferring from it, and who they are

31、 sharing it with. It is an important step in our final goal of figuring out how users are treated based on that information.”Personalization also has its benefits. Shopping sites such as Amazon and eBay can scan a users search and purchase history to offer suggestions. This can help find similar, ch

32、eaper items or items that are more suited to their needs at a glance. Its also possible to disable personalized ads and results. Googles search engine lets you switch off personalization, for example.Researchers from the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona and Yahoo felt the issue was so potential

33、ly damaging, and they have also created a way to “burst the filter(过滤) bubble”. They believe that just because people have opposing views on certain topics it doesnt mean they wont share interests with others.1、The underlined word “eliminating” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_”.Adecorating Bremoving
