Here is a question. Who talks more, women or men The seemingly contradictory(相矛盾的 ) proof is shown by the difference between what I call public and private speaking. Much more males feel comfortable when playing the "public speaking" ,while much more females feel comfortable with the "private speaking". Another method of realizing these differences is by using the terms report-talk and rapport-talk.For most women, the language of conversation is basically a language of rapport(友好 ).a method of setting up connections and relationships. What’s more, emphasis is placed on showing similarities and matching experiences. From childhood, girls blame their fellows and try to stand out or appear better than others. Mankind feel their closest connections at home, or in surroundings where they feel at home during private speaking. But even the most public situations can be tackled with like private speaking.While for most men, talk is primarily a way to keep up independence and position in a hierarchical(等级的) social order. This is done by exhibiting knowledge and skill, and by holding center stage through language performance such as story-telling, joking, or giving information. When they are kids, boys learn to use talking as a way to get and keep attention. So they are more comfortable talking in larger groups made up of people they know less well in the broadest sense, which is called "public speaking". But even the most private situations can be processed like public speaking, more like giving a report than setting up rapport. The author puts forwards his main idea by ().

A. telling why males and females speak in different ways
B. introducing two different methods of speaking
C. stating his own point of views
D. showing some interesting examples

Mark Lilla: Young clients often have not set up their credit ratings. Many of them do not have steady in-comes. They might have difficulty borrowing money from an agency in business to make loans. Parents or relatives are often their best source of loans. Of course, the parents or relatives would have to have money available and be willing to lend it. You might even get an interest-free loan. Nevertheless, a parent or relative who lends should receive interest the same as any other lender. Chris Roddy: For most consumers the cheapest place to borrow is at a commercial bank. Banks are such a good source of installment loans that it may run for a year or up to three years. Most banks also make single payment loans to consumers for short periods at 30, 60, or 90 days. A typical interest rate is 3 cents per $ 100 per day. Suppose that you used $ 100 of your credit and repaid it in 30 days. The cost would be 90 cents. Karen Barber: Another possible source of loans is a life insurance strategy. Anyone who owns this type of insurance may borrow up to the amount of its cash value. The amount the insurance company will pay in case of death is reduced by the amount of the loan. For instance, suppose that someone with $ 10,000 of insurance borrows $ 2,000 and dies leaving the loan unpaid. The insurance company would pay only $ 8,000 to the person entitled to receive the money. Louise Richard: Borrowing from pawnbrokers is both simple and expensive. In exchange for a loan the borrower leaves some item of value such as jewelry, a camera, a musical instrument, or clothing. Usually the amount of money received is far less than the actual value of the item left. When a borrower repays the loan plus interest, the pawnbroker gives the item back. If the loan is not paid within a year, the pawnbroker gets his or her money by selling the item. Jodie Morse: When money is urgently needed, people may agree to pay any price for a loan. Too late, they may find themselves in the clutches of loan sharks. A loan shark is an unlicensed lender because their rates are higher than the law allows, sometimes 1,000 percent or more a year. Borrowers are hardly ever capable of repaying their loans. It is all they can do to pay the interest. Borrowers who fail to pay the interest on time have been threatened with injury. Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement. Note there are two extra statements. Statements A A person can borrow as much as his life insurance’s cash value. B The lender gets huge profits. C The borrowers may not take as long as they want to repay their loans. D If the loan is not paid in a year, the item belongs to the lender. E Borrowing from their parents or relatives is the easiest or the best loan source for the young consumers. F The consumers without good credit can borrow money from their parents or relatives. G The interest rate of the commercial bank is the lowest. For example, the cost would be 360 cents if you borrowed $ 200 and repaid it in 60 days. Mark Lilla
