By the way did you have any other dreams last night that didn't come true?
顺便问一下,你昨天晚上还做了其它没有实现的梦吗?
Hmm, I don't remember what other else I dreamed.
嗯,其他的梦不太记得了。
Why not? Some studies suggest we have literally hundreds of dreams each night.
为什么?有研究称,我们每天晚上会做数百个梦。
Ok, I get the point. Maybe this dreaming the future stuff is more like picking and choosing dreams when they happen to fit.
好,我知道了。也许梦见未来这种事更像是从成千上百个梦的中挑选一个碰巧合适情景的。
Coincidences are bound to come up.
所以,巧合事件就发生了。
And if the coincidence acts as retrieval cue, the sense that you predicted something can be pretty convincing… even if it's just a dream.
如果巧合能作为检索的线索,那么预测未来这一说法就相当有说服力,尽管那只是一个梦。
