Unit 3　Life in the future 【导语】　未来对于我们每一个人来说都充满了神秘。如果我们能够预知未来那将是多么奇妙的事这应该是我们每一个人都很向往的事情。我们能否做到呢？ Its impossible to know the future.We can guess，but no one has actual knowledge of whats going to happen down the road. But if youre someone who trusts her/his feelings，youre more likely to accurately predict future events than people who dont trust their feelings as much. Thats the conclusion of a recent study done by researchers at Columbia Business School. Through a series of eight studies they found that subjects who had a high amount of trust in their feelings were generally better able to predict things like the outcomes of presidential elections，football games，the winner of American Idol，and even the weather. How is this possible，you ask? The best explanation is known as the“privileged window” hypothesis.The gist is that when we rely on feelings to make a prediction，were really summarizing and calling on everything we know about the subject in question.Its similar to what journalist Malcolm Gladwell wrote about in his best-selling book Blink that the more we know about something the greater our ability to make snap judgments and predictions without thinking too much. Unlike Gladwells theory，though，the recent study is less about snap decisions and more about consciously deciding to rely on feelings to make predictions.Do that，and youre more likely to be able to sense what may happen in the future. 【词海拾贝】　　正确无误地准确地；精确地预言预测总统的首长的vt.给予……特权假说假设；猜想猜测(……之)要点主旨梗概要义容易的；仓促的有意识地；自觉地【问题思考】？(no more than 10 words)答案：If you are someone who trusts her/his feelings.feelings can predict.(no more than 18 words) _______________________________________________________ 答案：The outcomes of presidential elections kind of result can we get according to the book Blink？(no more than 20 words)答案：The more we know about something the greater our predictions without thinking too much.
