I went at once to a shop where they sold 21 for children. Being charmed with the sound of a whistle in the hands of another boy, I 22 over all my money for one. I then came home, and went 23 all over the house, much pleased with my whistle, 24 disturbing all the family. My brothers and sisters, when I told of the 25 I had made, said I had given four times as much as the whistle was worth. They put me in 26 of what good things I might have bought with the rest of the money, and laughed at me so much for my stupidity that I cried feeling upset. And the 27 gave me more chagrin(懊恼) than the whistle gave me pleasure. This, however, was afterwards of use to me, for the impression 28 on my mind, so that often, 29 I was tempted to buy something I did not need, I said to myself, “Don’t give too much for the whistle,” and I 30 my money. As I grew up, came into the world, and 31 the actions of men, I thought I met with many, very many, who “gave too much for the whistle”. If I knew a miser who gave up every kind of comfortable living, all the 32 of doing good to others and the joys of friendship, for the sake of 33 and keeping wealth — “Poor man,” said I, “you pay too dear for your whistle.” When I met a man of pleasure, who did not try to 34 his mind or his fortune but 35 devoted himself to having a good time, perhaps even 36 his health, “Mistaken man,” said I, “you are providing 37 for yourself, instead of pleasure; you are paying too dear for your whistle.” If I saw someone fond of 38 who had fine clothes, fine houses, fine furniture, all 39 his fortune, for which he had run into debt, “Alas,” said I, “he has paid very dear for his whistle.” In short, the miseries of mankind are largely due to their putting a 40 value on things — to giving “too much for their whistles”. 21.

People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear.” Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits detected in the study include a person’s general age, their gender, income, political affiliation(派别), and other personality characteristics, including someone’s emotional stability.Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color and condition of someone’s shoes.
