After finishing shopping in the supermarket, I and my wife Julie stood in the shortest line.
There was only one guy in it, but he was in a 31 and there seemed to be some trouble going on.
Well, I and my wife Julie stepped in behind him. At first, he seemed to be having 32 getting his groceries onto the conveyor belt. But after a while, I realized that what he was actually doing was 33 them into two parts. I offered to help, but he and the checkout lady had it 34 He asked Julie if she would mind 35 his empty basket away. Then he 36 for his wallet which was in a pocket on one side of his wheelchair. The way he was positioned and the fact that he had only one 37 arm made this quite a stretch for him, so I helped there.
What must it be like, I wondered, to be so 38 on other people like that.9 The checkout operator came around and gave him his 39 and the items he needed. She 40 one bag of groceries over a handle at the back of his chair. I 41 to get the. bigger bag and he said, "No. 42 you could do me a favor. Take that part along to the entrance and give it to Angela. " I dutifully did that, 43 Julie with our shopping. It 44 that Angela was collecting food for people who might otherwise go hpngry!
This guy, despite the 45 that his physical condition imposed on him, had 46 more than twice as much shopping as he needed and 47 the bigger bag to help other people! He didn't let the fact that he needed help 48 him from being a help. He may have been limited 49 , bat his heart was more than capable of 50 all that. And it changed my idea of dependenee.

Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation（感觉） of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.
Psychologists have known that one person’s perception（感知） of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.
Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.
To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the study’s hypotheses（假设）, handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.
“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh.
