And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain? And that wasn't just the first week; it was practically every day for two months. I never got past the pain level, and pain isn't fun. What a cruel way to do it! So many other exercises, including walking, lead to almost the same results painlessly, so why jog?

　　I don't jog any more, and I don't think I ever will. I'm walking two miles three times a week at a fast pace, and that feels good. I bicycle to work when the weather is good. I'm getting exercise, and I'm enjoying it at the same time. I could never say the same for jogging, and I've found a lot of better ways to stay in shape.

　　In my early 30s, I used an expired (过期的) student ID to buy discounted movie tickets. I'd tell myself, I'm buying a ticket I wouldn't have otherwise bought. I think many people have done similar things; however, we still think of ourselves as honest citizens. Researchers who study these behaviours believe that character isn't the real reason. We might break the rules under some conditions and in some mind­sets, but not in others.

　　Years ago, Francesca Gino, a professor at Harvard, and Dan Ariely, a behavioural economist at Duke, wondered if people with higher IQs were more likely to cheat. They found that cleverness wasn't closely connected to dishonesty, but creativity was. The more creative you are, the easier it is to retell the story of what happened when you behaved dishonestly.

　　Harvard University psychologist Joshua Greene argues in his book Moral Tribes that we may be born without having a clear sense of right and wrong, but our culture sharpens it. If your tribe downloads pirated (盗版的) music, you're likely to go with the flow.

　　Harvard researcher Leslie John, along with two colleagues conducted an experiment. They told volunteers that others in the room were making more money than they were for getting questions right on a test. Guess what happened? That group, which considered itself disadvantaged, cheated more than those who believed that everyone received an equal payment.

　　The real threat is that rule breaking worsens over time. Behavioural psychology offers a few antidotes. Keep yourself fed and well­rested - we're likelier to behave badly when hungry or tired. Reflect on how your actions look through others' eyes and see yourselves in a positive light. In a Stanford study, when researchers used the verb cheat - please don't cheat - participants still cheated freely because they felt distanced from the act. When the noun was used - don't be a cheater - hardly anyone did.

　　5．According to Francesca Gino, who are likeliest to break the rules in a company?

A．Accountants.　　　　　　B．Designers.
