【题目】
When taking an elevator,do you often push the"Close"button?You hope by pushing it,the elevator door will close faster.But what if the button is actually fake(假的)?
Karen Penafiel is the executive director(执行董事)of the US'NationalElevator Industry.She said that elevators'"close"buttons are a complete trick,at least in the US,and that doors will not close any faster despite how hard you push.
In the 1990s the Americans with Disabilities Act (《美国残疾人法案》)
was passed in the US.It means all elevators have to stay open long enough to allow disabled people to enter.Only US firefighters and elevator workers can really use the buttons with special keys.
But the buttons aren't completely useless.According to psychologists(心、理学家),fake buttons can make you feel better.They give you a sense of control that can help reduce stress.That's why some other buttons in our lives are fake,too, For example,many offices in the US have fake thermostats(温控器).People may feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace.
You were told that traffic light buttons could help make the traffic signals change faster.But they may not really work either.
However,even when people know these little"white lies",they still push fake buttons.As long as the doors finally close,it seems worthy, John Kounios is a psychology professor at Drexel University in the US.He told The New York Times that he always pushes the traffic light buttons."After all,I've got nothing else to do while waiting.So why not push the button on the off chance that this one will work?"
