passage　3

　　　for　some　time　past　it　has　been　widely　accepted　that　babies—and　other　creatures—learn　to　do　things　because　certain　acts　lead　to　“rewards";　and　there　is　no　reason　to　doubt　that　this　is　true.　but　it　used　also　to　be　widely　believed　that　effective　rewards,　at　least　in　the　early　stages,　had　to　be　directly　related　to　such　basic　physiological　“drives"　as　thirst　or　hunger.　in　other　words,　a　baby　would　learn　if　he　got　food　or　drink,　some　sort　of　physical　comfort,　not　otherwise.

　　　it　is　now　clear　that　this　is　not　so.　babies　will　learn　to　behave　in　ways　that　produce　results　in　the　world　with　no　reward　except　the　successful　outcome.
