话说小盆友对糖果（candy）、甜食（dessert）这种东西最没有抵抗力了。最近一群国外科学家就做了一个小实验（experiment）：把一个小孩和一颗棉花糖（marshmallow）一起留在空房间里，并规定：如果他们能忍着不吃就可以得到多一颗（这算是哪门子鬼实验……乃们大人真的好无聊……完全就是对幼小身心的残酷折磨啊喂！），各位小盆友又有哪些有趣的反应捏？

【The Marshmallow Test】（部分对话实录）

Ok, sit in that chair. Alright, here's the deal. Marshmallow, for you. You can either wait, and I'll give you another one if you wait, or, you can eat it now.

When I come back, I'll give you another, so you'll have two.

Just stay in here and stay in the chair till I'm come back, ok?

I'm gonna go do something, and I'll come back.

Twins: It smells yummy! It smells really good!

……

How did you do? Did you do good? You did? You wouldn't eat it, would you? So I have told you I'll give you another. OK, now you can have both~!
