31、ing emails, according to new research. “There are pretty good odds at being able to guess the gender of someone just by reading their emails,“ said David Silver, an assistant professor in the school of Communications at the University of Washington. “Many studies have found that men using email tend

32、 to supply answers that shut down the dialogue. Women are more prepared to open up the discussion. Theyre also more prepared in a chatroom to say I dont, know.

35、rted their own chatrooms. “Silver pointed to a series of studies into the differences between male and female behavior Online. One study showed women were a lot less status-oriented (强调身份的 ) in their use of the Internet. In one chatroom for academics it was noticed that female undergraduates, gradua

36、tes are all treated each other equally. In the same chatroom, researchers noticed women were a lot quicker to share information. The news comes as the gender balance in Internet use shifts towards women. In the UK, women account for 40 percent of those online at present and this is expected to rise

42、 the lives of two types of people. One type consisted of men and women deprived, by World War I, of faith in the moral values in which they had believed.

43、ee Stories and Ten poems. The novel that established Hemingways reputation, The Sun Also Rises, is the story of a group of morally irresponsible Americans and Britons living in France and Spain, members of the so-called lost generation of the post-World War I period. Hemingways second important nove

44、l, A Farewell to Arms, is a story of a deeply moving love affair in wartime Italy between an American officer and a British nurse. The OM Man and Sea is his greatest novel that earned him the Nobel Prize for literature. The novel tells how man is faced with nature, and how man straggle against natur

45、e. Death in the Afternoon and Green Hills of Africa are Hemingways two nonfiction works. Hemingways economical writing style often seems simple and almost childlike, but his method is used to show complex effect. In his writing, Hemingway used simple nouns and verbs to describe scenes wonderfully. B

In addition, Hemingway believed that an author writing about a familiar subject is able to write economically. Hemingways stylistic influence on American writers has been enormou

48、s. The success of his plain style in expressing basic, yet deeply felt, emotions contributed to the decline of the elaborate (浮夸的 ) Victorian-era style that is typical of American writing in the early 20th century. Many American writers have regarded Hemingway as an influence on their own work. 51 T
