“ind your own business.” we’re told．“Don’t talk about others behind their backs．”The proble with this advice is that，not only is it unrealistic，it’s also counterproductive(起反作用的)．
Coon sense holds that gossip(流言蜚语)hurts people’s feelings and daages relationships．But recent research shows the opposite—that strong counities and relationships between people would be ipossible without gossip．
Gossip is a way for people to let you know the liits of social behavior．“If you ove into a counity and your neighbor tells you how the forer hoeowner never dealt with his rubbish properly，his gossip is letting you in on soething，”says Dr．Ralph Rosnow of Teple University．“Gossip says：these are the boundaries and you are crossing the．You’re not abiding by the rules and you’d better get back in line．” Seen this way，gossip is a way to counicate criticis without conflict(冲突)，giving you a chance to change your behavior without losing face．
On the other hand，what about ill-willed gossip，the kind that puts other people down? Gossip is hearing soething we like about soeone we don’t and，in nearly every country in the world，gossip agazines have huge nubers of readers．According to researchers，however，this kind of gossip also has a good side because it helps us put our own probles in perspective(正确地)．“If we read bad news about well-known people，or get the frightful details of our neighbors’ bad situation over a cup of coffee，our own probles begin to pale in coparison，”says Dr．Jack Levin of Northeastern University．
However, that doesn’t ean that gossip is necessarily a good thing，either．Researchers found that people who gossip a lot tend to feel like they’re under a lot of stress．This ight be because while they’re busy talking about other people，they’re also busy thinking what other people are saying about the．
57．What is the purpose of the text?
A．To encourage us to spread gossip about others．
B．To prevent us fro spreading gossip about others.
C．To ake a coparison between good gossip and bad gossip．
D．To recognize certain positive functions of gossip．
58．According to the passage，people in general think that__________．
A．nobody pays attention to gossip
B．it’s a bad habit to gossip
C．not all the gossip you hear is worth believing
D．it’s necessary to have a nice gossip with a friend or neighbor
59．It could be learned fro the passage that_________．
A．people under uch stress enjoy gossiping about others
B．in fact ost people tend to believe gossip
C．in a way gossip helps us deal with our own probles
D．the ore there is gossip，the stronger relationships becoe between people
