Without thinking about it, you look upwards, too. Why? In the concert, someone begins to clap and suddenly the whole room joins in. You do, too. Why? Sometimes we feel we are acting correctly when we do the same as others. The more people follow an idea, the better or truer we think the idea is. It39。s the social proof （社會認(rèn)同感） that works. The scientist Asch carried out an experiment. It shows how social proof can influence us. In a room, a man is shown Line 1, and next to it are three lines （A, B, C）. A is longer, C is shorter and B is as long as Line 1. He must tell which of the three lines is as long as Line 1. When the man is alone, he gives the correct answer B. Then, five other men enter the room, and each of them gives the answer C as they were told to. Now the man changes his idea and gives the answer C. Asch got the same result many times among different subjects （實(shí)驗(yàn)對象）. Why do we act like this? Well, in the past, following others was a way to keep from danger. Suppose that 5000 years ago you were hunting （打獵） with friends. Suddenly, they all ran away. What would you have done? Would you have stayed? No, you would have run, too. We are descendants （后代） of those who copied others39。 action. It is so deeply planted in our mind that we still use it now. Social proof has special power. The advertising industry, for example, often makes use of it.

It can be used in every field, such as on some signs and restaurant menus. But there are some problems when people use it. Perhaps you39。ve seen the English letters WC in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from native（地道的） English？In fact, foreigners from English﹣speaking countries seldom use the letters. Workers in our city are changing WC signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps. WC, or water closet, is old﹣fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me. says Nancy, a young woman from the US. The old sign will bee Gents/Men and Ladies/Women. I see much poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs, she says, I know what they mean, but they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me My hometown is Guizhou Province, I know he or she should say My hometown is in Guizhou Province. Hometown is a smaller place in a province. The mon mistakes that Nancy picked up include Not Entry, which should be No Entry, Direction of Airport should be changed to To the Airport. And it is Room Rate, not Room Price. And remember to Keep off the Grass rather than Care of the Green. The next time you walk on the street or eat in the restaurant, you can go and see if the expressions are right. （1）Who sel
