• When someone doesn't like you and they won't be your friend

• When someone prefers an idea and won't give an equal chance to another idea

• have a sip of coffee, eat some chips, and then move on

• try to think about a better way to write it

• find evidence from many different sources

• eliminate ideas from one particular group

Bias can help us _________ what people thought or believed in a particular time
