    (5) [A man in Halifax, Canada, wanted to find out if people were thankful for someone holding the door open for them.] The social experiment showed that (7) [99 out of 100 people expressed gratitude.] “I didn’t think we were going to get 99. I don’t know why, but I was pleasantly surprised because it went beyond just ‘thank you’. People got into conversations with us,” said Steve Foran, CEO of Gratitude at Work. “What we know from research is that from grateful people come good things”, he said. “A simple way to induce gratitude in people is opening doors, (6) [and so we went to six places and opened the doors for people.]” For the experiment, Foran’s team went to a shopping centre, a mall, two office buildings, and a coffee shop. (6) [The door was held for 15 to 20 people at a time at each location.] “We did have one that didn’t say thank you. We’re not here to judge them because on any given day, that could be me or you. I suspect out of the 100 people, there were probably a bunch of them having a bad day, (7) [but grateful people make people grateful]”, said Foran.

6. What did Steve Foran and his team do in the experiment?（史蒂夫·福伦和他的团队在实验中做了什么？）

解析：C。录音中福伦提到，引导人们感恩的一个简单方法就是帮他们开门。因此，我们去了6个地方，在那里帮人们开门。他们在每个地点都会为15到20个人扶门。即福伦和他的团队在不同地方为人们扶门，因此C选项符合题意，为正确答案。

错项排除：录音中福伦提到，这件事的意义已经超过了一句简单的谢谢，人们开始和我们交谈。由此可知，是人们主动和福伦的团队交谈，并非是福伦团队引导陌生人与他们交谈，故A项错误。B项利用录音中出现的15 to 20 people设置干扰，录音中提到，研究人员在每个地点都会为15到20个人扶门，但并没有说这些人心情不好，故B项排除。录音中福伦表示，他们确实遇到了一个不说“谢谢”的人，但并未提到他们采访了不表达谢意的人，故D项错误。
