Think about driving a route that’s very familiar. It could be your commute to work, a trip into town or the way home. Whichever it is, you know every twist and turn like the back of your hand. On these sorts of trips it’s easy to zone out from the actual driving and pay little attention to the passing scenery. The consequence is that you perceive that the trip has taken less time than it actually has.
This is the well-travelled road effect: people tend to underestimate the time it takes to travel a familiar route.
The effect is caused by the 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. And afterwards, when we come to think back on it, we can’t remember the journey well because we didn’t pay much attention to it. So we assume it was shorter.
选项
答案
试想你正在一条非常熟悉的路上开车。这条路可能是你上班、进城或者回家的路。无论它是哪条路线,你都熟知这条路上的所有拐弯处。在这样的旅程中,很容易忽视实际的行驶过程和路过的风景。结果是,你会认为这次出行花费的时间要比实际的时间更少。 这就是“熟路效应”:在开车时人们往往会低估花费在熟悉的道路上的时间。 这种效应的产生原因是我们分散了注意力。由于不必太集中注意力,当沿着熟悉的路线驾车,时间似乎过得更快了。然后,当我们回忆这段旅程时,我们却无法很清晰地记起它,原因是当时我们并没有留意这段路程。所以我们潜意识里会认为这段旅程花费的时间短。
