Task 4
4。阅读:behavior perserance,就是说很多情况下人们相信什么事,即使过后知道这是不对的,但是还会继续做...
听力:教授以自己经验告诉大家,小时候妈妈说如果不穿暖和了就不让出去...要不然会感冒,但是,长大后才知道是感冒病毒引起感冒,并不是温度,冬天感冒几率反而最小,虽然知道是错的,但是还是继续执行,而且还让他的孩子冬天出去时也要穿得暖暖的。
第四题:阅读:关于 brief perservation,听力:教授举了自己小时候母亲让他穿厚夹克以防止感冒,等他长大后发现感冒是由于接触病毒引起的,冬天反而不容易感冒,但他依旧教育自己的孩子多穿厚夹克是为了预防感冒。
belief perseverance
有些人hold belief on available information, even though the information is false.阅读举例说妈妈告诉小孩天冷穿夹克保暖可以防感冒,可是小孩长大后知道感冒是因为病毒引起,可是他还是会对自己的孩子说天冷穿夹克,如果孩子问他为什么,他还是会说可以防感冒。
Belief perseverance. believe is based on available information; even the information is proved to be wrong, people still hold the same belief. i.e. speaker was told by his mom that if he does not wear jacket, hat, and gloves in the winter and go outdoors, he would catch the cold. When he grew up, he understand that winter is least possible to catch cold because the cold virus, the reason for getting cold, is less in winter. However, he still told his son to wear jacket, hat, and gloves before going out of the house.
阅读中是theory: once people hold on to what they believe, it is unlikely for them to change the beliefs even when they acknowledge the fact which can prove there are flaws in their beliefs.
听力中的教授用个人经历来解释理论:When he was young, he was told to keep warm in winter because the cold weather will cause him get a cold. Later he acknowledged that cold was caused by virus instead of cold wind, plus it is easier to get a cold in the fall not winter. However, he still believe there is necessary for him to keep warm outdoors in the winter to keep away from catching a cold. He also tells his children to keep warm in the winter too.
