A bookstore chain “Popular Bookmall” introduced their special style of book distribution (分銷)in Shanghai back in November. This experimental store offers books at very low prices, and there is no staff to require customers to pay before taking books away. Sounds like a book lover’s paradise!
Popular Bookmall had already set up such a shop in Nanjing. The organizers of the Nanjing store report that it was a great success; enough customers voluntarily paid for their books. But most older “honesty stores” in China did not receive enough honest customers. For example, a self-service restaurant opened in Fujian province years ago. It allowed customers to pay whatever they chose, but about one-fifth of customers paid nothing. The organizers of the “honesty stores” say that their goal is to encourage people in China to remember how important honesty is.
Many Chinese are worried about dishonesty in China. Even at Popular Bookmall, not everybody chose to pay for their books. Is it a good way to solve it by law? Maybe not. We should listen to our conscience (良心). This has deep roots in Chinese culture. Confucius (孔夫子) taught Chinese to be conscientious and honest.
But there are also a great rational (理性的) reason for “honesty stores”: the more honest people there are in society, the more reasons we have to trust others. And if people trusted each other, they’d be more willing to share. For example, in a “sharing economy”, we do not have to think about saving or spending money all the time. We should try to help other people. In brief, society is built on trust, not only trade (商業(yè)).

Drawing might help you think
When you're sitting in class, have you ever drawn pictures in the margins of your notebooks?
If so, your teacher might have told you 1.(stop). Many people think of doodling(涂鴉) as a distraction(精神渙散) from more important things. But it might be just the opposite.
One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear. In 2009 researchers asked two groups of people to listen to a phone message. One group 2. (encourage) to doodle, but the other was not. Neither group knew that it would be asked to remember information from the message. But the group that doodled remembered 29 percent more.
Other people 3. (suggest)other uses for drawing. Jesse Prinz, a professor who studies doodling, says it can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to draw
might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you 4. (have)a fresh perspective and figure out an answer more quickly.
Two years ago, an author named Sunni Brown 5. (write)a book on doodling. She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think. She admits that people see doodling
as doing nothing, but she wants to change that. In fact, she runs a business that helps companies
improve organization and planning through doodling. Brown 6. (believe)doodling is helpful because it incorporates(整合)many ways of learning. You lean in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading or writing, and through movement. The more ways you use, the better you learn.
And when you doodle while you 7. (listen )to a lecture, you use all four.
You might think that being good at 8. ( draw)is important for doodling. But if the point of doodling is to help you think, then it doesn't matter what the picture looks like. Even if you're not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need help focusing, pick up a pen and doodle away!
1.to stop 2.was encouraged 3.have suggested 4.will have 5.wrote 6.believes 7.are listening 8.drawing 【解析】本文介紹了涂鴉的作用。有人認為涂鴉會使人精神渙散,但另一部分人認為涂鴉會使人有創(chuàng)造性。教授Jesse Prinz在實驗中證明了涂鴉的作用。Su...查看答案和解析>>
