    Trust is a tricky business. On the one hand, it's a necessary condition for many worthwhile things such as child care or friendships. On the other hand, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (put) your faith in the wrong place often carries a high price.

    Then, why do we trust at all? Well, because it feels good. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} people place their trust in an individual or an institution, their brains release oxytocin, a hormone that produces pleasurable feelings and triggers the herding instruction that leads sheep to flock together for safety and prompts humans {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (connect) with one another.

    Swiss Scientists have found that exposure{#blank#}4{#/blank#} this hormone puts us in a trusting mood: In a study, researchers sprayed oxytocin (催产素) into the noses of half the subjects; those subjects were ready to lend significantly {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (high) amounts of money to strangers than were their counterparts{#blank#}6{#/blank#}inhaled something else.

    Lucky for us, we also have a sixth sense for dishonesty that {#blank#}7{#/blank#} protect us. A Canadian study found that children as young as 14 months can differentiate between a credible person and a dishonest {#blank#}8{#/blank#}. Sixty toddlers were each introduced to an adult tester holding a plastic container. The tester would ask, "What's in here?" before looking into the container, smiling, and exclaiming, "Wow!" Each subject was then invited to look inside. Half of them found a toy; the other half discovered the container was empty-and realized the tester {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (fool) them.

    Among the children who had not been tricked, the majority were willing to cooperate with the tester in learning a new skill, demonstrating that they trusted his leadership. In contrast, only five of the 30 children {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (pair) with the "inflexible" tester participated in a follow-up activity.

    One day, Nick invited his friends to supper. He was cooking some delicious food in the kitchen. Suddenly, he {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (find) that he had run out of salt. So Nick called to his son, "Go to the village and buy some salt, but pay a fair price for it: neither too much {#blank#}2{#/blank#} too little."

    His son looked surprised. "I can understand why I shouldn't pay too much, Father, but if I can pay less, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} not save a bit of money?"

    "That would be a very {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (reason) thing to do in a big city, but it could destroy a small village like ours," Nick said.

    Nick's guests, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy sale more cheaply if they could. Nick replied, "The only reason a man would sell sale {#blank#}6{#/blank#} a lower price would be because he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it."

    "But such a small thing couldn't {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (possible) destroy a village."

    "In the beginning, there was only {#blank#}9{#/blank#} very small amount of unfairness in the world, but everyone added a little, always {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (think) that it was only small and not very important, and look where we have ended up today. "
