Tipping, psychologists have found, is not just about service. Instead, studies have shown tipping can be affected by psychological reactions（反应） to different factors（因素） from the waiters choice of words to how they show themselves while taking orders. Even how much waiters remind customers of themselves can decide how much change they pocket by the end of the night. So Rick van Baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups. He requested that half serve with a phrase such as, “Coming up!” Those in the other half were asked to repeat the orders to the customers. Rick van Baaren then compared the results. It pays to mimic（ 模仿 ） your customer. The copycat（ 模仿的 ） waiters made almost double the amount of the tips to the other group. Leonard Green and Joel Myerson, psychologists, found the generosity of a tipper may be limited by their bill. After research on the nearly 1000 tips left waiters, taxi drivers and cleaners, they found that tip percentages（ 百分比 ） in all the three dropped as customersbills went up. In fact, tip percentages reach to a plateau（稳定的） when bills topped（高出） $100 and a bill for $ 200 made the worker gain no bigger percentage tip than a bill for $100. “Thats also point of tipping,” Green says “You have to give a little extra to the taxi driver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being to serve you. If they werent there youd never get any service. So I think part of the idea of a tip is for just being there.” 根据短文内容选择正确答案。 （ ） 46.
