Section Ⅲ translation

　　46.Directions

　　Think about driving a route that’s very familiar. It could be your commute to work, a trip into town or the way home. Whichever it is, you know every twist and turn like the back of your hand. On these sorts of trips it’s easy to zone out from the actual driving and pay little attention to the passing scenery. The consequence is that you perceive that the trip has taken less time than it actually has.

　　This is the well-travelled road effect: people tend to underestimate the time it takes to travel a familiar route.

　　The effect is caused by the way we allocate our attention. When we travel down a well-known route, because we don’t have to concentrate much, time seems to flow more quickly. And afterwards, when we come to think back on it, we can’t remember the journey well because we didn’t pay much attention to it. So we assume it was proportionately shorter.

　　想想非常熟悉的行駛路線。這可能是在您通勤上班、旅行、城鎮(zhèn)或回家的路上。不管是哪個，你熟悉每一個轉彎，就像熟悉你的手背一樣。在諸如這樣各種各樣的旅行很容易從實際駕駛體驗中游離出來，并且很少注意到路過的風景。結果是你察覺到該行程花了比它實際上有更少的時間。

　　這就是輕車熟路帶來的“公路效應”： 人們往往低估行駛熟悉的路線所花費的時間。

　　這一效應是由我們注意力的方式引起的。當我們沿著一條熟知的路線行駛時，因為我們并不需要太多注意力，時間似乎更快地在流逝。之后，當我們回想起它時，我們不能很好記住這次旅程，因為我們沒有注意到它。所以我們假設它是成比例地縮短了。
