    　　The baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby．Almost from the moment it is born, the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother．During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large, warm, and soft object in its environment, particularly if that object also gives it milk．After a week or m, however, the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on “mother"－the real mother or the mother-substitute(母亲替代树)．

    　　During the first two weeks of its life warmth is perhaps the most important psychological(心理的)thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby．The Harlows, a couple who are both psychologists, discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother-substitutes－one covered with cloth 4nd one made of bare wire．If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature, the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother．However, if the wire model was heated, while the cloth model was cool, for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother-substitutes as their fuvorites．Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the mw comfortable cloth mother．

    　　Why is cloth preferable to bare wire? Something that the Harlows called contact(接級)comfort seems to be the answer, and a most powerful influence it is．Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers' skins, putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can．Whenever the young animal is frightened, disturbed, or annoyed, it typically rushes to its mother and rubs itself against her body．Wire doesn't “rub" as well as does soft cloth．Prolonged(长时间的)“contact comfort" with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is cither warmth or milk．

    　　According to the Harlows, the basic quality of baby's love for its mother is trust．If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother, the baby ignores the toys no nutter how interesting they might be．It screams in terror and curls up into a furry little ball．If its cloth mother it now introduced into the playroom, the baby rushed to it and holds onto it for dear life．After a few minutes of contact comfort, it obviously begins to feel more secure．it then climbs down from the mother-substitute and begins to explore the toys, but often rushes back for a deep embrace(拥抱)as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well．Bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding onto its “mother．”

    When you think of the tremendous technological progress we have made, it’s amazing how little we have developed in other respects. We may speak scornfully of the poor old Romans because they enjoyed the seemingly excited killing that went on in their arenas（竞技场）. We may despise them because they mistook these goings on for entertainment. We may forgive them because they lived 2000 years ago and obviously knew no better. But are our feelings of superiority（优越）really justified? Are we any less blood-thirsty? Why do boxing matches, for instance, attract such universal interest? Don’t the audience who attend them hope they will see some violence? Human beings remain as bloodthirsty as ever they were. The only difference between ourselves and the Romans is that while they were honest enough to admit that they enjoyed watching hungry lions tearing people apart and eating them alive, we find all sorts of arguments to defend sports which should have been banned long ago.
    　　It really is incredible that in this day and age we should still allow hunting or bull-fighting, that we should be prepared to sit back and watch two men punch each other in a boxing ring, that we should be relatively unmoved by the sight of one or a number of racing cars crashing and bursting into flames. Any talk of ‘the sporting spirit’ is merely hypocrisy（虚伪）. People take part in violent sports because of the high rewards they bring. Audience are willing to pay vast sums of money to see violence. A world heavyweight championship match, for instance, is front page news. Millions of people are disappointed if a big fight is over in two rounds instead of fifteen. They feel disappointment because they haven’t experienced the exquisite pleasure of witnessing continuous violence.
    　　Why should we ban violent sports if people enjoy them so much? You may well ask. The answer is simple: they are uncivilized. For centuries man has been trying to improve himself spiritually and emotionally—though with little success. But at least we no longer tolerate the sight madmen imprisoned in cages, or public punishment of any of the countless other barbarous (野蛮的) practices which were common in the past. Prisons are no longer the harsh forbidding places they used to be. Social welfare systems are in operation in many parts of the world. Big efforts are being made to distribute wealth fairly. These changes have come about not because human beings have suddenly improved, but because positive steps were taken to change the law. The law is the biggest instrument of social change that we have and it may exert great civilizing influence. If we banned dangerous and violent sports, we would be moving one step further to improving mankind. We would recognize that violence is unworthy of human beings.
