Motivation(动机) to satisfy one‘s needs is broughtabout by ―drives‖, These ―drives‖ do notdetermine man‘s behaviour, but rather direct man‘senergy towards certain aims. For example, man‘sbody requires food, which is a biological need, whenthis need comes up, man feels uncomfortable andhis thoughts turn to getting food or satisfying thatneed. If he is very hungry, it will difficult for him topay enough attention to anything except his need for food.

　　While all men feel hungry, there is more than one method for helping free people of thisuncomfortable feeling. How needs are satisfying depends on what we have been taught orwhat we have learned from our experiences. As we grow, we learn shat foods our societyconsiders acceptable, and how they should be prepared and eaten. In some societies, forexample, pork is considered a special food while in other societies it is strictly forbidden. Insome societies fish is always cooked, but in other societies raw (生的) fish is preferred. The wayin which we satisfy a drive is a learned response. Nature has not built a food – gettingresponse into man. He cannot just eat whatever he wants of whenever there is food, hissatisfaction of the hunger drive, for example, is limited by the rules of a society. Although weare hunger, according to the rules of society, we should not steal food, even if it belongssomeone weaker than we are.
