Upright
Ask the direct question and be ready for the answer.
Watch what is being done rather than what is being said.
Curiosity here is your best tool, used with a calm tone.
Rumours arrive quickly, so verify before repeating.
A new line of study is worth a short experiment.
Reversed
Words are being used faster than they are being checked.
The watchfulness has become suspicion of everything.
Gossip creates the very conflict it describes.
Ask one clarifying question instead of assuming the worst.
Speak plainly and abandon the loaded phrasing.
Original Chinese reading
Upright: 好奇、求知、消息灵通
Reversed: 多嘴、八卦、学而不深
