    The Value of an Hour

    It was Thanksgiving morning. In the crowded kitchen of my small home I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in clothes and thin little sandals(凉鞋), staying together at the door on the top step.

    “Any old ， lady？” asked one of them.

    I was . I wanted to say “no” until my eye their sandals, which were wet with heavy snow.

    “ and I’ll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”

    They walked and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the . I served them cocoa and bread with jam to fight the freezing cold outside. I went back to the kitchen and started again on my household budget for Thanksgiving Day.

    The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice，“Lady, are you ？”

    I looked at my old sofa covers. The girl put her cup back in its saucer(托盘) and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” Her voice was with a need that no amount of food could supply. They left after that， their papers against the wind. They hadn’t said “Thank you.” They didn’t need to. They had me that I had so much for which to be grateful. Plain blue china cups and saucers were worth five pence. But they matched.

    I tasted the potatoes and the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a good steady job—these ，too.

    Honesty is the best policy, as the English saying goes. Unfortunately, honesty often leaves us when no one is watching, British psychologists reported last week.

    Researchers at UK’s Newcastle University set up an experiment in their psychology department’s coffee room.

    They set a kettle, with tea, coffee and milk on the counter and hung up a sign listing the price for drinks. People helping themselves to a cup of tea were supposed to put a few cents in the box nearby.

    The scientists hung a poster above the money box, and changed each week between pictures of gazing eyes and pictures of flowers. The researchers found that staff paid 2.76 times more for their drinks when the image of the eyes was hung.

    “We were shocked by the size of the effect,” said Gilbert Roberts, one of the researchers.

    Eyes are known to be a powerful perceptual (知觉的) signal for humans, scientists say.

    “Even though the eyes were not real, they still seemed to make people behave more honestly,” said Melissa Bateson, a behavioral biologist and leader of the study.

    Researchers believe the effect throws light on our evolutionary past. It may arise from behavioral characteristics that developed when early humans formed social groups to strengthen their chances of survival. For social groups to work, individuals had to co-operate, rather than act selfishly. “There’s an argument that if nobody is watching us, it is in our interests to behave selfishly. But when we’re being watched we should behave better. So people see us as co-operative and behave the same way towards us,” Bateson said.

    The new finding indicates that people have a striking response to eyes. That might be because eyes and faces send a strong biological signal we have evolved to respond to, Bateson said.

    The finding could be put to practical use. For example, images of eyes could ensure ticket sales on public transport and improve surveillance(监视) systems to deter anti-social behavior.

    1.In the experiment, a poster was hung above the money box to ________．

    A. give a harmonious atmosphere

    B. remind people the drinks were not free

    C. prove the actual effect of different pictures

    D. see how honest people are in different situations

    2.From the result of the experiment, we can conclude that ________．

    A. people might pay more for the drinks at the image of gazing eyes

    B. people may be dishonest when no one is watching them

    C. no one would pay for the drink unless they are told to

    D. just a image of flowers is not enough to remind people to pay for a drink

    3.What is the best title for the passage?

    A. You're being watched!

    B. Pay for your drink, please!

    C. Mind your behavior in public!

    D. Look out for electronic surveillance equipment!

    4.Which of the following English proverbs can be best used at the beginning of the passage?

    A. Once a thief, always a thief

    B. Lies have short legs

    C. Honest is the best policy

    D. An honest look covers many faults
