17．It all began with a stop at a red light．
    Kevin Salwen was driving his 14-year-old daughter，Hannah，back from a sleepover in 2006 While waiting at a traffic light，they saw a black Mercedes Coupe on one side and a homeless man begging for food on the other．
"Dad，if that man had a less nice car，that man there could have a meal，"Hannah protested． The light changed and they drove on，but Hannah was too young to be reasonable．She pestered （纠缠）her parents about inequity， insisting that she wanted to do something．
"What do you want to do？"her mom responded．"Sell our house？"
Warning!Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager．Hannah seized upon the idea of selling the luxurious family home and donating half the proceeds to charity，while using the other half to buy a more modest replacement home．
Eventually，that's what the family did．The project-crazy，impetuous （鲁莽的） and utterly inspiring-is written down in detail in a book by father and daughter scheduled to be published next month："The Power of Half．"It's a book that，frankly，I'd be nervous about leaving around where my own teenage kids might find it．An impressionable child reads this，and the next tiling you know your whole family is out on the street．
At a time of enormous needs in Haiti and elsewhere，when so many Americans are trying to help Haitians by sending everything from text messages to shoes，the Salwens offer an example of a family that came together to make a difference-for themselves as much as the people they were trying to help．In a column a week ago，It described neurological （神经学的）evidence from brain scans that unselfishness lights up parts of the brain normally associated with more primary satisfaction．The Salwens'experience confirms the selfish pleasures of selflessness．
Mr．Salwen and his wife，Joan，had always assumed that their kids would be better off in a bigger house．But after they downsized，there was much less space to retreat to，so the family members spent more time around each other．A smaller house unexpectedly turned out to be a more family-friendly house．

13．Researchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person's shoes．"Shoes convey a thin but useful slice of information about their wearers，"the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality．"Shoes serve a practical purpose，and also serve as nonverbal cues（线索）with symbolic messages．People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear．"
    Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits（特质）detected in the study include a person's general age，income，political tendency，and other personality traits，including someone's emotional stability．Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style，cost，color and condition of someone's shoes．In the study，63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants．Participants in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes，and then filled out a personality questionnaire．
    So，what do your shoes say about your personality？Some of the results were expected：People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes，and flashier footwear was typically worn by outgoing people．However，some of the more specific results are interesting．For example，"practical and functional"shoes were generally worn by more"friendly"people，while ankle boots were more closely connected with"aggressive"personalities．The strangest of all may be that those who wore"uncomfortable looking"shoes tend to have"calm"personalities．
    And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take exceptional care of them，you may suffer from"attachment anxiety，"spending too much time worrying about what other people think of your appearance．There was even a political calculation in the mix with wearing"shabbier and less expensive"shoes．
    The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality traits，but researchers pointed out that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were revealing deep insights into their personalities．
