1. The Taos Hum 陶斯之聲

Some residents and visitors in the small city of Taos, New Mexico, have for years been annoyed and puzzled by a mysterious and faint low-frequency hum in the desert air. Oddly, only about 2 percent of Taos residents report hearing the sound. Some believe it is caused by unusual acoustics; others suspect mass hysteria or some secret, sinister purpose. Whether described as a whir, hum, or buzz and whether psychological, natural, or supernatural no one has yet been able to locate the sound's origin.

多年以來，美國新墨西哥州小城市陶斯的部分居民和訪客一直被沙漠空氣中一種微弱的低頻噪聲所困擾。奇怪的是，只有大約2%的陶斯居民說自己聽見了這種聲音。有些人認(rèn)為它產(chǎn)生于特殊的聲學(xué)作用，也有些人懷疑這是集體幻覺或是某種神秘邪惡行為的產(chǎn)物。不管人們形容這種聲響還是呼呼聲、嗡嗡聲還是咝咝聲，也不管它究竟是心理作用、自然產(chǎn)物還是超自然產(chǎn)物，至今還沒人能找到它的來源。
