2015年考研英語二翻譯答案

　　翻譯題目：

　　Think about driving aroute that’s very familiar. It could be your commute to work, a trip into townor the way home. Whichever it is, you know every twist and turn like the backof your hand. On these sorts of trips it’s easy to loseconcentration on the driving and pay little attention to the passing scenery.The consequence is that you perceive that the trip has taken less time than itactually has。

　　This is thewell-travelled road effect: people tend to underestimate the time it takes totravel a familiar route。

　　The effect is caused bythe way we allocate our attention. When we travel down a well-known route,because we don’t have to concentrate much, time seems to flow more quickly. Andafterwards, when we come to think back on it, we can’t remember the journeywell because we didn’t pay much attention to it. So we assume it was shorter。

　　參考答案：

　　不妨想想在熟悉的道路上開車?？梢允窃谀闵舷掳嗟穆飞?，也可以是在進城或回家的路上。不管是哪個，你對每一個拐彎都了如指掌。在這些熟悉的道路上開車，很容易失去注意力，也不會注意路邊的風景。結果是，你覺得這次旅途花的時間比實際時間少。

　　這稱為“熟路效應”：在熟悉的道路上開車時，人們往往會低估花費的時間。

　　這種效應是由我們分配注意力的方式所決定的。當我們沿著熟悉的路線駕車，因為我們不必太集中注意力，所以我們會覺得時間過得更快。后來，當我們回憶這個旅程時，我們卻不記得了，因為我們根本沒有注意它，所以我們認為它花的時間短。
