El narrador quiere conocer a la persona que inventó (el marcapasos / el correo electrónico).
Escucha la descripción y subraya la frase que mejor completa la oración. No sé quién fue el que inventó el correo electrónico, pero si está vivo yo quiero conocer a esa persona. De todos los inventos del siglo XX, no creo que haya ningún otro que haya logrado esclavizarnos como el famoso correo electrónico. Mi rutina diaria está controlada por este diabólico invento. Tan pronto me levanto y antes de bañarme siento la necesidad, la compulsión de ir a mi escritorio para ver si me han llegado nuevos mensajes. Naturalmente, antes de acostarme la noche anterior había hecho exactamente lo mismo. Me pregunto cuál es la fascinación que sentimos por este nuevo invento. El placer no está en recibir y leer los mensajes, el placer está en la expectativa, la esperanza de recibir un mensaje de algún amigo olvidado, de un amor que ya dábamos por perdido o de alguna sorpresa inimaginable. ¿Qué es lo que en realidad recibimos? Anuncios sobre drogas que prometen curar todo tipo de enfermedades que no estoy seguro que existan. Claro está que no faltan las invitaciones a visitar lugares exóticos y prohibidos del espacio cibernético y las promesas de hacernos millonarios sólo con enviar unos dólares a un funcionario del ministerio de hacienda de una república mítica de África. Como hago todos los días, leo mis mensajes, lamento no haber recibido nada de interés y espero que para cuando llegue a mi trabajo, allí estará esperándome ese mensaje que me hará feliz por el resto de mi vida. What will be an ideal response?
What are the consequences of discovering that you've been lied to? In an interpersonal relationship, the discovery can be traumatic. As we grow closer to others, our expectations about their honesty grow stronger. After all, discovering that you've been lied to requires you to redefine not only the lie you just discovered, but also many of the messages you previously took for granted. Was last
week's compliment really sincere? Was your joke really funny, or was the other person's laughter a put-on? Does the other person care about you as much as he or she claimed? Research has shown that lying does, in fact, threaten relationships. Not all lies are equally devastating, however. Feelings like dismay and betrayal are greatest when the relationship is most intense, when the importance of the subject is high, and when there was previous suspicion that the other person wasn't being completely honest. Of these three factors, the importance of the information lied about proved to be the key factor in provoking a relational crisis. We may be able to cope with "misdemeanor" lying, but "felonies" are a grave threat. An occasional white lie in an otherwise honest relationship doesn't pose much threat. Major deception, though—especially when it is part of a pattern of deceit—is likely to provoke a relational crisis. In fact, the discovery of major deception can lead to the end of a relationship. More than two-thirds of the subjects in one study reported that their relationship had ended because they discovered a lie. Furthermore, they attributed the breakup directly to the lie. Which of the following is NOT discussed as an important factor in leading to a crisis in a relationship after a lie is discovered? a. previous suspicion about the other person's honesty b. lying about a subject of great significance c. intensity of emotions in the relationship d. age of the parties involved in the relationship
