    Did you know that what you think you like and don't like is often the result of false (believe)? As humans, we tend to be  (easy) influenced when it comes to liking or disliking something, and we're happy to have our existing opinions  (confirm). But once they became fixed, we often lose our ability to be  (object) and we don't like to have our ideas challenged. Generally speaking, human beings are not good at taking a balanced view of things. For instance, we unconsciously start to listen for and select information that (match) our understanding and turn a blind eye to information that doesn't,  (reject) it out of hand. We don't always like to accept new information that doesn't match up with what we already believe. As a result, we often don't even consider the reasons behind  opposing point of view. Instead, we look for evidence that confirmswe have already thought, and which conforms to our own point of view. We're more likely(give) meaning to information that matches those we've already believed. In other words, we are biased (有偏见的)towards certain information.  can come as a shock when information we trusted is actually exposed to be untrue.
