The process of perceiving others is rarely translated(to ourselves or others) into cold,objective terms．"She was 5 feet 8 inches tall, had fair hair, and wore a colored skirt．" More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations,abilities, ideas, and characters． Furthermore, we sometimes behave as if we can accomplish this difficult job very quickly--perhaps with a two-second glance．
We try to obtain information about others in many ways． Berger suggests several methods for reducing uncertainties about others; who are known to you so you can compare the observed person's behavior with the known others' behavior, observing a person in a situation where social behavior is relatively unrestrained or where a wide variety of behavioral responses are called for,deliberately structuring the physical or social environment so as to observe the person's responses to specific stimuli, asking people who have had or have frequent contact with the person about himor her, and using various strategies in face-to-face interaction to uncover information about another person--question, self-disclosures, and so on．
Getting to know someone is a never-ending task, largely because people are constantly
changing and the methods we use to obtain information are often imprecise． You may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him． If we accept the idea that we won't ever fully know another person, it enables us to deal more easily with those things that get in the way of accurate knowledge such as secrets and deceptions． It will also keep us from being too surprised or shocked by seemingly inconsistent behavior． Ironically, those things that keep us from knowing another person too well (e． g． secrets and deceptions) may be just as important to the development of a satisfying relationship as those things that enable us to obtain accurate knowledge about a person (e． g． disclosures and truthful statement)．

We need to follow the lead of Britain's families and put in the hard work to renew the contract between the generations.You don't get a better Britain by chance-you have to build it.Nor are we likely to overcome the divides facing our country by accident-we have to unify it.But when it comes to ensuring that Britain works for all generations,young and old,as a society we too often leave il to chance,something families would never do.The giving and taking of the generational contract,in which we support young and old,feels like the natural order of things.Cont.ributing when we can and being looked after when in need is what we do every day as 14 million parents bring up their children.And just as that contract underpins our families,it has long underpinned our socieLy and welfare state.But this intergeneraLional conLiact is under pressure.We are already failing to provide the social care our older generations deserve,need and expect.And this is before the real pressures,and a~24bn bill,from delivering on our health and care obligations in an ageing society arrive in the next decade.Solution after solution has been panned,binned or pushed into the long grass by government after government.The need co renew our intergenerational conLract is clear and urgenl,bul doing so is far from easy.It requires new thinking and tough trade-offsPfrom how we deal wich the fiscal pressures of an ageing society in a way that is generationally fair,to how we deliver the housing young people need while respecting the communities everyone values.And the polit,ics are far from straightforward.Renewal should involve an agenda appealing to all generations,but voters'party preferences have never been so starkly divided by age.This state of affairs-with the Conservatives reliant on older people who are most likely to vote,and Labour sitting on a lead amongst younger generations who represent the fucure of British elections-is not desirable for the parties themselves or our counlry as a whole.We need our political leaders co rise to this challenge with an appeal to all generations.It can be done,as the forthcoming final report of the Incergenerational Comm]ssion will lay out.We can deliver the health and care older generations deserve,withoul simply asking younger workers to bear all the costs.We can do more to promote educacion and skills,especially for those who have not chosen on the university route.We can provide more security for yoimg people,from the jobs they do to the homes they renL.And we can show younger generations thal owning a home is a realit,y not a dislanl prospect in 21st-century Britain.Such an appeal across generations is che route to building a better Bricain-and a more united one,too.

B.The housing issue may be one of top priorities of the new contract.
C.The two parties may have different plans for the new contract.
