The

20、only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating- a dozen long-stemmed red roses.

21、speak with me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband-a prisoner in a nearby prison-was my next patient.

22、r husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boys father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule wasnt full, I agreed. After all, it was Christmas Eve. A short time later, her husband

23、 arrived-with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. The womans tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to

24、 my office. While I worked, the guards stood just outside my door. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions.

Bargh. Psychologists have known that one pers

31、ons perception（感知）of anothers “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships.
