  People have long debated the essence(本质)of human nature.Some people think humans are born good.In San Zi Jing(Three Chara~er Classic), a Chinese children's educational book from the 13th century, we read:“Men at birth are naturally good.Their natures are similar, their habits become different.''

  Yet some philosophers disagree with this.They think men are born selfish and vicious(恶的).

  For example, Thomas Hobbes, the 1 7th century English philosopher argued that men are born self-interested and with a liking for war.

  Over the centuries, different philosophers have argued their cases.Now the results of a new study, which contrasts the behavior of very young children and young chimpanzees(黑猩猩)suggests that human beings are born sociable and helpful to others, according to a New York Times report.

  “Of course every animal must to some extent be selfish to survive.But the biologists also see in humans a natural willingness to help.”The New York Times science reporter Nicholas Wade writes.

  Wade quotes a book published in October by American psychologist Michael Tomasello.

  Tomasello writes:“When infants(婴儿)18 months old see an unrelated adult whose hands are full and who needs help opening a door or picking up a dropped clothespin, they will immediately help.The helping behavior seems to be innate because it appears so early and before many parents start teaching children the rules of polite behavior.''

  Tomasello finds that this behavior is not the result of an incentive(动机)of a reward, suggesting training does not influence it.And it seems to happen across cultures, with their different timetables for teaching social rules.For these reasons, Tomamsello concluded that helping is natural, not something taught by parents or culture.

  And it seems that infants cannot only help in practical ways, it can also help with information, Tomasello writes.From the age of 1 2 months they will point at objects thin all adult pretends to have lost.Chimpanzees, by contrast, never point at things for each other, and when they point for people.it seems to be as a command to go fetch something rather than to share information.
