The first time I heard the expression "Know yourself" by Socrates, I didn't realize its meaning until I go to university. I started my university life unwillingly, because I didn't want to leave my parents and university of engineering was not my dream school, too. However, I changed my mind complete after a semester. My schoolmates are from different place, some of which are really outstanding. This makes me realized there is always someone much more better capable. Since then, to know myself has become an importance part of my life. Only by knowing who I am or where I am can I really follow the right path.

We usually interpret someone looking us straight in the eye during an interaction as a sign of trustworthiness. 1.This is at least the case in the Western world.
But research is increasingly challenging this standard view. 2. In a competitive environment where a negotiation is taking place, looking at another person directly in the eye can be a sign of competition and unkindness, rather than kindness.
While folk wisdom tells us eye contact is a sign of honesty and trustworthiness, these findings were not a surprise. Animals have direct eye contact not before engaging in kind behaviors but rather immediately before an attack. 3. We humans seem to be carrying on this tradition by looking our opponent directly in the eye before we "attack".
What does this mean for the work place? In a competitive business environment, when taking part in negotiations or a business deal, for example, be aware that people who look you directly in the eye may not be as friendly as you think. 4. In many Asian cultures, for example, looking a person of higher status in the eye is a sign of disrespect, while looking away signals respect.
5. And this must be fully understood. This means they most likely don't apply to social environments, such as spending time with friends, family or loved ones. In these cases, direct eye contact, often referred to as a "gaze", can still be a sign of intimacy（亲密）and kindness.
A.This may help you understand eye contact much better.
B.Eye contact is a sign of challenge and threat from another.
C.The study led by Jennifer Jordan shows quite the opposite.
D.All the experiments took place in a competitive environment.
E.We use eye contact as a marker of intimacy and straightforwardness.
F.Actually it can be rather upsetting when someone avoids eye contact.
G.If you want to express honesty and reliability, direct eye contact may indicate the opposite.
Over 2. 5 quintillion （1018） bytes of data are created each day. Many of them consist of information that would allow people to be personally identified.
At the same time that we share our personal information, there is a growing concern with how that information is being gathered, stored, used and shared. While many economies like Canada and the EU have privacy laws dating back to the mid-1990s, changes to data practices in the past five years have motivated governments to review or update existing laws.
Changes to privacy laws are being fuelled by growing public concerns with the idea of unrestricted data accumulation and use. For instance, earlier this year, the World Economic Forum found that 1/3 of global citizens have no idea about how their personal information is used and that trust is lacking.
Privacy laws are changing to deal with the real and noticed risks of harm which result from the under-regulated or unregulated data economy. The EU has introduced big reform to laws which are aimed at protecting privacy. The EU's General Data Protection Regulation （GDPR） introduced strict requirements for those that control or process the personal data of the people who live in the EU. The GDPR's stated goals focus on the protection and basic rights of personal information. Certain US states are also entering the ring in the fight for control over personal data. They have passed or are actively considering privacy laws. California is out front. The California Consumer Privacy Act （CCPA） provides greater control to individuals over their personal information. There is a sense that privacy laws are on the near horizon in the US.
These are two examples that are actively pursuing more progressive privacy laws. One important consideration is to harmonize global standards for best law practices. This will ease compliance （遵守）across border and provide a valuable signal to the public that governments are keeping pace with rapid change.
1.What's the cause of the change of privacy laws?
A.A growing need for information. B.Public concerns over data security.
C.General awareness of data control. D.Collection of personal information.
2.How does Paragraph 4 develop?
A.By giving examples. B.By listing statistics.
C.By analyzing reasons. D.By making comparisons.
3.What is an important consideration for global law makers?
A.The practice of laws in different fields.
B.The reflection of reality in different eras.
C.The consistency of laws in different regions.
D.The adaptation to changes in different societies.
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A.EU passes new laws for privacy protection.
B.Governments ignore the violation of personal privacy.
C.Privacy laws are changing to protect personal information.
D.People lack the awareness of personal information protection.
