           The article "I know the Truth, So Don't Bother Me with Facts"by Jeffrey Kluger from In Time, October 29,2010 stated that Humans believe lies and rumors easily. Recently, A new survey found out that it was very easy to double people's beliefs.In addition, Most people persisted with their beliefs even when it was proven that their beliefs were wrong.
            I agree with what the article stated. Most people accept and believe rumors. They don't try to know the truth because they are more interested in what people just say instead of what the truth is.Unfortunately, people don't care how much the rumor effect a person's life. Last year, I almost broke up with my boyfriend because of the rumor. One day, My boyfriend went back his hometown for a month. At that time, one of my old friends moved to New York. I helped him as much as i can because he was new in New York.I met him in a cafe shop for several times and talk about our old time.We had known each other since we were kids. Unfortunately, A rumor came out that i was having a new boyfriend. Fortunately, whenever i talked to my boyfriend on the phone, i told him about my friend too. 
          When my boyfriend came back, we had quarrels because of the rumor.He almost believed the rumor even though he knew that i was just helping my friend.He tried to find out the truth because he knows exactly who i am like.Later, He realized the truth and whenever someone talked my rumor, he talked from my side. Nevertheless, Other people believed the rumors even though they don't exactly know the truth.
          In conclusion, Rumors are very dangerous and very easy to spread out. Many people don't care how much rumors effect a person's life.So,My advice is not to accept and spread out the rumor without knowing the truth because rumors can ruin a person's life terribly.
