If a friend helps you, what do you do in return You could just say “Thank you”. Or you could write a thank-you note. But most people don’t do this.
“People don’t seem to give thanks to people quite often,” Amit Kumar from University of Texas says.
Why are people hesitant (犹豫的) about sending thank-you notes And how do most people react when they receive one
Kumar and his team asked some students to each write a letter of thanks to another person. Then, they questioned both the writer and the recipient (接受者) about the letter and how it made them feel.
They found that people don’t like to write thank-you notes because they feel like they have to think too much about it. They worry about what to say and how to say it.
But people really like receiving thank-you notes. They feel especially happy.
“If people knew that writing a thank-you note can have such a big influence on the recipient, they would do it more often,” Kumar says.
Kumar says this study makes us think that simple, small changes in our everyday lives can make a big difference in how we treat other people and how we feel.
根据短文内容，判断下列句子正（A）误（B）。
31．Most people like to write a thank-you note when a friend gives them a favor.
32．Many students know what to say because they want to think too much.
33．People would like to get thank-you notes from others.
34．The writer thinks writing a thank-note can have a big influence.
35．The study can help us make a big difference in how to treat others.
