31、 same way. Email works for some, but others would rather pick up the phone and talk, text, or even use social media to say something. Respect the person youre trying to communicate with and use the method he/she accepts more easily. Consider your tone (语调). The problem with email and social media is
32、 that it can be difficult to determine the tone. _5_ But if it comes off pushy or angry, you could cause a misunderstanding with the recipient.
