I don't know what this key is for!?

Question

When I bought my car a 1990 Honda Civic EX, it came with 2 sets of keys, each with 2 keys on it. The normal keys obviously are used to start the car, as well as unlock the trunk and doors. I can't figure out what the smaller key is for. the smaller key is about half the size of the normal key, it doens't lock the glove box because there is no lock. I'm not sure what else it could go to. the shift lock release key is apparently the ignition key according to the manual, but I don't have time to test it and I don't want to test it since I don't know what the shift lock release does in this car. Can anyone help me?

I believe it for when you valet park , It should just open the doors and start the car .  It shouldn't open the glove box are anything else to your car.
