人类使用远不止10%的大脑 Humans Already Use Way, Way More Than 10 Percent of Their Brains 人类使用远不止10%的大脑 By now, perhaps you’ve seen the trailer for the new sci-fi thriller Lucy. It starts with a flurry of stylized special effects and Scarlett Johansson serving up a barrage of bad-guy beatings. Then comes Morgan Freeman, playing a professorial neuroscientist with the obligatory brown blazer, to deliver the film’s familiar premise to a full lecture hall: “It is estimated most human beings only use 10 percent of the brain’s capacity. Imagine if we could access 100 percent. Interesting things begin to happen.”可能你已经看过了科幻惊悚片《超体》的预告。一开始是一连串极具个人风格的特效，接着斯嘉丽?约翰逊与坏人激烈打斗。然后摩根?弗里曼出场，饰演一个神经学家，穿着标志性的棕色大衣，在座无虚席的演讲厅里侃侃而谈关于这部电影著名的大前提：“据估计，人类使用不到大脑的10%的能力。想象一下如果我们能够100%充分利用我们的大脑，那会是多么有趣的现象啊。” Johansson as Lucy, who has been kidnapped and implanted with mysterious drugs, becomes a test case for those interesting things, which seem to include even more impressive beatings and apparently some kind of Matrix-esque time-warping skills.约翰逊饰演的露西遭人绑架，被植入了神秘药物，成为了有趣现象的试验品。这些有趣现象包括更多的打斗和黑客帝国式的时间扭曲能力。 Of course, the idea that “you only use 10 percent of your brain” is, indeed, 100 hundred percent bogus. Why has this myth persisted for so long, and when is it finally going to die?当然，“你仅使用了10%的大脑”这种想法100%是假的。为什么这种谣言被传了这么久，什么时候才能消失呢？ Unfortunately, not any time soon. A survey last year by The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinsons Research found that 65 percent of Americans believe the myth is true, 5 percent more than those who believe in evolution. Even Myth busters, which declared the statistic a myth a few years ago, further muddied the waters: The show merely increased the erroneous 10 percent figure and implied, incorrectly, that people use 35 percent of their brains.很遗憾，这不是很快就能发生的事。去年麦克?J?福克斯基金为帕金森综合症研究进行了一项调查发现，65%的美国人相信这个谣言，比相信进化论的人还多5%。甚至在《流言终结者》几年前宣称了这个数据只是谣言之后，也只是搅混了这趟水：这档节目只是增加了错误的10%这个数字，暗指人类使用了35%的大脑。这也是不正确的。 Like most legends, the origin of this fiction is unclear, though there are some
