单选题Questions are based on the conversation you have just heard.
____________

A．Common causes of anger.
B．Judging people's behavior.
C．Changing people's attitudes.
D．The effects of negative behavior.

参考答案B

解析:M: One of the most common questions we ask about people's behaviour is why. Why did she say this? Why did he do that? [7] Sometimes the reason is obvious. For example, someone is driving down the street, the light turns red, and they stop, why?
W: Because they have to, legally I mean.
M: Exactly! In this case the reason is obvious, so usually we don't question it. But when the reason is not so obvious and [6] especially when the behaviour could have negative consequences, we'll be more likely to feel a need to explain the cause of the behaviour. Social psychologists have a term for this, for the process of explaining the causes of the behaveour, it's called" causal attribution". And one theory suggests, there's a pattern in the way we go about attributing causes to people's behaviour. According to this theory, there are two categories of reasons: internal factors and external actors. Again, Lisa, say you're driving down the road and all of a sudden some guy turns into the lane fight in front of you, and you have to slam on your brakes to avoid an accident. How do you react?
W: I'll probably get very angry.
M: Because...
W: Well, he's not paying attention, he's a bad driver.
M: So you automatically attribute the driver's behavior to an internal factor. He himself is to blame because he is careless.
W:So if I said it was because of heavy traffic or something, I'd be attributing his behaviour to an external factor, something beyond his control.
M: Good. [8] Now how do we usually explain our own negative behaviour?
W: [8] We blame external factors.
M: That's right.
