夢(mèng)可以預(yù)知未來(lái)？
D: Lots of people have had dreams that seem to foretell the future. Some psychologists attribute this to "retrieval cues".
許多人都做過(guò)一些好像可以預(yù)知未來(lái)的夢(mèng)。心理學(xué)家把這種現(xiàn)象歸因于“提取線索”。
Y: Retrieval cues?
提取線索？
D: A retrieval cue is a coincidence in the real world that triggers a dream memory which otherwise would have gone unnoticed. For example, did you know you dreamed about a little dog before the real dog showed up?
提取是一種巧合：現(xiàn)生活中的某個(gè)場(chǎng)景讓你回憶起一個(gè)不被注意夢(mèng)境。比如，你知道你夢(mèng)到的那只小狗出現(xiàn)在真實(shí)的狗之前嗎？
Y: Oh, yes, I was thinking about it all morning.
是的。我整個(gè)早上都在想這個(gè)夢(mèng)。
D: Really?
真的嗎？
Y: Welll, I think so.
我想是吧。
D: Maybe, or maybe the real event triggered a recollection of a dream, which not seems like it must have been in your thoughts all along. By the way did you have any other dreams last night that didn't come true?
也許吧，有或許是真實(shí)事件讓你回憶起某個(gè)夢(mèng)境，而這個(gè)夢(mèng)境不一定一直都在你的腦海中。順便問(wèn)一下，你昨天晚上還做了其它沒(méi)有實(shí)現(xiàn)的夢(mèng)嗎？
Y: Hmm, I don't remember what other else I dreamed.
嗯，其他做過(guò)的夢(mèng)都不記得了。
D: Why not? Some studies suggest we have literally hundreds of dreams each night.
為什么不記得了呢？有研究稱我們每天晚上要做數(shù)百個(gè)夢(mèng)。
Y: Ok, I get the point. Maybe this dreaming the future stuff is more like picking and choosing dreams when they happen to fit.
好，我知道了。也許夢(mèng)見(jiàn)未來(lái)這種事更像是從成千上百個(gè)夢(mèng)的中挑選一個(gè)碰巧合適情景的。
D: Coincidences are bound to come up. And if the coincidence acts as retrieval cue, the sense that you predicted something can be pretty convincing… even if it's just a dream.
所以，巧合就發(fā)生了。如果巧合作為提取線索，你能預(yù)測(cè)未來(lái)就相當(dāng)有說(shuō)服力，盡管那只是一個(gè)夢(mèng)。
