However, conflict can also be viewed in terms of its background conditions, the feelings of the involved part
44、ies, their actual behavior, and the consequences of their behavior.Conflict is an organizational reality that is inherently neither good nor bad in and of itself. It can be destructive, but it can also play a productive role both within a person and between persons. Whereas most managers seek to red
45、uce conflict because of its negative effect, some seek to use it for its positive effects on creativity, and motivation.There is no “one best way“ for managing interpersonal conflict, either as an involved adversary or as a third party.

Each of these roles adds its own distinct strengths and weaknesses.51 From this passage, we learn that _.（A）interpersonal conflict is typical of all people（B） interpersonal conflict tends to occur more often among aggressive people（C） when we look at interpersonal conflict, we must alwa
