In the United States, train transportation is unpopular compared with cars and airplanes. Most people like traveling by car or by air. Officials of the United States Department of Transportation made a study in 2001. The study is about how many miles Americans traveled by different means of transportation.

They only studied trips longer than 50 miles. The study showed that fifty-six percent of all miles were traveled in personal vehicle. Forty-one percent were traveled in an airplane. Two percent were traveled in a bus. And less than one percent of miles were traveled in a train. Amtrak is the national provider of train transportation in the United States. In the past ten years, the number of its passengers has increased by eighteen percent. Although the number of passengers has increased, it is still very small now. In countries such as France, Germany, or Japan, more people use trains. There are several reasons why many people ________________________.

Firstly, Americans love to drive their own cars. On highways, cars can travel as fast as trains. These highways connect all major cities in America．Secondly, many travelers like to be independent. When they use their own cars they can decide when to travel. Thirdly, many buses travel between major cities. Bus travel is less costly than train travel. In a huge country like the United States, cities are far away from each other. In some cases, travel from one city to another by train may take more than a day. Airplanes can carry passengers over long distances much faster.

People who do not want to spend long time traveling by train decide to fly. For these people saving time is the most important thing.

Judgment of character can be influenced by something as simple as the temperature of a drink held in our hands, according to a US study published today.

Researchers from Yale University conducted experiments that showed that people perceive（認(rèn)識(shí)）others as more generous and more attentive if they have just been holding a hot cup of coffee, and that the inverse is true for cold drinks.

A second study found that people are more likely to give something to others if they held something warm, and more likely take something for themselves if they held something cold. In the study, published in the current issue of the journal Science, the research team built on earlier studies that show the physical distance between individuals also influences social judgment about others.

The experiment suggests that the warmth of an object or the distance that is felt between people means more than simple metaphors（暗喻）.Both instances, researchers said, are literal examples of trust first experienced between mother and child during infancy.

“When we ask whether someone is a warm person or cold person, they both have a temperature of 98.6（Farenheit,37Celsius）,” said Yale psychology professor John Bargh, who co-authored the study with Lawrence Williams at the University of Colorado. “These terms indirectly explains the primitive experience of what it means to be warm and cold.”

“Physical temperatures affect not just how humans see each other, but also how humans behave,” said Bargh, “The power of temperature on character assessments has been backed up by recent brain imaging studies.” He added, “Physical warmth can make us see others as warmer people,            cause us to be warmer, more generous and trusting as well.”

The study was funded by the National Institutes of Health.
