asked for a donation by a disabled woman in a wheelchair than if asked by a nondisabled woman. In
another 1 , subway riders in New York saw a man carrying a stick stumble(绊脚) and fall to the floor.
Sometimes the victim had a large red birthmark on his 2 ; sometimes he did not. In this situation, the
victim was more likely to 3 aid if his face was spotless than if he had an unattractive birthmark. In
4 these and other research findings, two themes are 5 : we are more willing to help people we
like for some reason and people we think 6 assistance.
In some situations, those who are physically attractive are more likely to receive aid. 7 , in a field
study researchers placed a completed application to graduate school in a telephone box at the airport.
The application was ready to be 8 , but had apparently been "lost". The photo attached to the
application was sometimes that of a very 9 person and sometimes that of a less attractive person.
The measure of helping was whether the individual who found the envelope actually mailed it or not.
Results showed that people were more likely to 10 the application if the person in the photo was
physically attractive.
The degree of 11 between the potential helper and the person in need is also important. For
example, people are more likely to help a stranger who is from the same country rather than a foreigner.
In one study, shoppers on a busy street in Scotland were more likely to help a person wearing a(n)
12 T-shirt than a person wearing a T-shirt printed with offensive words.
Whether a person receives help depends in part on the "worth" of the case. For example, shoppers
in a supermarket were more likely to give someone. 13 to buy milk rather than to buy cookies,
probably because milk is thought more essential for 14 than cookies. Passengers on a New York
subway were more likely to help a man who fell to the ground if he appeared to be 15 rather than
drunk.

Researchers in the psychology department at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) have discovered a major difference in the way men and women respond to stress. This difference may explain why men are more likely to suffer from stress-related disorders. Until now, psychological research has maintained that both men and women have the same "fight-or-flight" reaction to stress. In other words, individuals either react with aggressive behavior, such as verbal or physical conflict ("fight"), or they react by withdrawing from the stressful situation ("flight"). However, the UCLA research team found that men and women have quite different biological and behavioral responses to stress. While men often react to stress in the fight-or-flight response, women often have another kind of reaction which could be called "tend and befriend." That is, they often react to stressful conditions by protecting and nurturing their young ("tend"), and by looking for social contact and support from others - especially other females ("befriend"). Scientists have long known that in the fight-or- flight reaction to stress, an important role is played by certain hormones(激素) released by the body. The UCLA research team suggests that the female tend-or-befriend response is also based on a hormone. This hormone, called oxytocin, has been studied in the context of childbirth, but now it is being studied for its role in the response of both men and women to stress. The principal investigator, Dr. Shelley E. Taylor, explained that "animals and people with high levels of oxytocin are calmer, more relaxed, more social, and less anxious." While men also secrete(分 泌)oxytocin, its effects are reduced by male hormones. In terms of everyday behavior, the UCLA study found that women are far more likely than men to seek social contact when they are feeling stressed. They may phone relatives or friends, or ask directions if they are lost. The study also showed how fathers and mothers responded differently when they came home to their family after a stressful day at work. The typical father wanted to be left alone to enjoy some peace and quiet. For a typical mother, coping with a bad day at work meant focusing her attention on her children and their needs. The differences in responding to stress may explain the fact that women have lower frequency of stress-related disorders such as high blood pressure or aggressive behavior. The tend-and-befriend regulatory(调节的) system may protect women against stress, and this may explain why women on average live longer than men. | |||||||||||||||
