Imagine this situation. You pass a group of people. The people are talking to each other. You cannot hear what they are saying. But suddenly they start laughing. What would you think? Would you think they were laughing at something funny that one of them said? Or -- be honest with yourself -- would you think they were laughing at you? Yes, you.想象一下这样的场景,你从一群人面前走过,这些人在互相交谈,你听不到他们在说什么。但他们突然大笑起来,你怎么想呢?你会认为他们是因为其中一人说了好笑的事而大笑吗?或者,老实说,你觉得他们在笑你吗?是的,就是笑“你”。
