基礎被動語態

Do you ever wonder how you stack up to others?

你是否曾經好奇過你和別人比起來是如何呢?

For example, in North America, if you are a male

舉例而言，在北美，如果你是高於

who is taller than 5'9 or women taller than 5'3

5尺9吋的男性，或者你是高於5尺3吋的女性

And if you weigh less than 88.3 kg and 74.7 kg

而如果你的體重輕於88.3或74.7公斤

Worldwide, however, humans actually weigh 62 kg on average.

然而，就全世界而言，人類的平均體重其實是62公斤

But avid readers like likely inflate this number

但這數字可能是由閱讀成癮的人提高的

with 4 books per year being the most common number reported.

報導指出，一般人通常一年讀四本書

And if you can read faster than 300 words per minute,

and you're also faster than the majority.

If you finish a bachelor's degree or higher,

you're far below average with only about 10% not finishing.

你就遠遠低於平均值，因為只有10%的人沒有完成高中學歷

If you're a man who can benchpress more than 135 lbs,

如果你是個可以舉重超過135磅的男人

If that tires you out and you sleep more than 6.8 hrs,

And if to wake up you're drinking less than 3 cups of coffee per day,

如果你每天起床後喝不到三杯咖啡

Still thirsty? Most people drink 3 to 4 cups of water a day.

覺得渴嗎? 大部分人每天喝3到4杯水

If you're urinating less than 6 times a day, you're below average.

如果你一天小便少於6次，你在平均之下

And if you have more than one bowel movement today,

you're probably above average based on surveys.

But these are not necessarily reasons for concern.

The average person farts around 14 times a day

If you end up having more than two kids in your lifetime in most Europe and North America,

在北美及大部份歐洲國家，如果你一生有超過2個小孩

But if you have less than 6 children in Niger,

但在尼日爾，如果你只有不到6個小孩

And if you're watching more than 5 hours and 4 mins of TV each day,

如果你每天看超過5小時又4分鐘的電視

That's the same amount of time the average spends on their mobile service.

但和大部分人每天花在行動設備上的時間是一樣的

But if you're a teen and spending less than 9 hours on media,

但如果你是個青少年，一天只花不到9小時在通訊媒體上

The average person also simply touches their phone over 2000 times a day.

一般人平均一天碰手機超過2000次

Think you're smarter than the average person or better at driving?

你覺得你比一般人聰明，或是更會開車嗎?

How about having better health, memory or being a better friend than the average person.

覺得你比他們更健康、記性更好，或是一個更好的朋友嗎?

Turns out the vast majority of people also think they're better than average

in a phenomenon called Illusory Superiority.

這是一種叫做優越感偏誤的現象

It's a cognitive bias where people overestimate their own abilities and qualities

人們會因為認知偏誤而高估自己的能力和才能

在學校的調查中，有百分之八十七的學生

rated their academic performance above the median.

認為自己的學業成績在中上程度

Interestingly, people with lower IQs tend to overestimate their IQ,

有趣的是，IQ低的人往往會高估自己的IQ

while who actually have above-average IQs tend to underestimate them.

而IQ比較高的人往往會低估自己

Men are also more likely to overestimate their IQ by 5 points,

Perhaps most shocking is that in cognitive test,

也許最令人吃驚的是，在認知測驗中

even the lowest scoring groups predict they're above average

就連成績最爛的一群人也認為自己高於平均

And researchers believe it because those worst at the test

研究人員認為這是因為那些成績最差的人

are also worse at understanding the skills required to do it well.

也正好是最不知道要怎麼準備考試才能考好的人

This paper actually won a Nobel Prize in 2000.

在2000年時這份研究得到了諾貝爾獎

"The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence".

這世界的問題在於，聰明的人對自己充滿疑惑，愚笨的人對自己充滿自信
