Would you stop if you saw a 6-year-old girl alone in a public place?
当你看到一个6岁的小女孩孤零零站在公共场所的时候,你会停下来对其提供帮助么?
A social experiment conducted by UNICEF shows how differently people reacted — depending on the girl's appearance.
联合国儿童基金会最近进行了一项社会实验,观察人们会因为女孩不同的着装而做出何种不同的反应。
The video posted to YouTube features a 6-year-old child actor named Anano. When Anano was dressed in a nice dress and coat, people stopped to ask if she was lost, tried to comfort her and made phone calls on her behalf.
该视频上传到了YouTube网站上,而参与这次实验的6岁小女孩名为阿娜诺。当阿娜诺穿着时尚整洁的衣服站在街边时,人们都会停下来询问其是否迷路,并试图安慰她,有些行人还会主动打电话为其提供帮助。

Then makeup artists covered her face with soot and dressed her in dirty sweats and a knit cap. The video shows people walking right past her without a second glance.
随后,化妆师在阿娜诺的脸上涂上煤灰,并让其换上了破旧的毛衣,戴上一顶脏兮兮的针织帽。视频显示,当阿娜诺以衣衫褴褛的面貌站在街边时,来往行人无人问津。
UNICEF then repeated the experiment inside a restaurant. When Anono was clean and dressed nicely, diners welcomed her at their tables. Strangers smiled at her, patted her arm and even rubbed her cheeks.
联合国儿童基金会随即又将饭店作为实验地点。当阿娜诺穿着整洁得体的衣服出现在餐厅时,很多用餐的顾客都非常欢迎她坐在自己身边,冲她微笑,拍她的手臂甚至还抚摸她的脸颊以示喜爱。
When she returned to the restaurant in the dirty sweats and knit cap, people clutched their purses and bags when she passed by. One man signaled to an employee and asked, "Can you take her out please?" The video shows Anano running out of the restaurant in tears.
当她换上破旧的脏衣服再次出现在饭店时,情况却截然不同。有些顾客特意将自己的包远离阿娜诺,还有一位顾客直接向店员表示将阿娜诺赶出餐厅。视频的最后显示阿娜诺流着眼泪跑出了饭店。
"We stopped the experiment because Anano became too upset," UNICEF said.
"由于阿娜诺情绪特别低落,我们的拍摄工作便没有再继续进行下去。"联合国儿童基金会表示。
"Every day, millions of children living in poverty are ignored, pushed aside and deprived of everything they need to thrive," UNICEF stated on YouTube. "It doesn't need to be this way. Our 2016 State of the World's Children Report is a call to action for the world to treat its least fortunate children the way it treats its luckier children."
联合国儿童基金会在YouTube上公开发布:"世界上平均每天有数以百万计的儿童处于贫困的境地。他们被人忽视,被人冷落,被剥夺了他们成长所需要的一切。事实本不应该如此,2016年世界儿童状况报告就曾呼吁全世界用平等的方式对待所有的孩子,无论其贫穷还是富有。"
