  • Somebody who did something really amazing or important for them.

    那個人可能為受試者做過什麼事,或他本身對受試者來說就是個重要的存在。

  • We had them write down as much as they could about why this person was so important.

    然後要受試者在紙上寫下為什麼這個人如此重要,寫越多越好。

  • Now a lot of them thought at this point the experiment was over until we really put them on the spot and tried to get them to call that person and read what they wrote about them.

    很多人以為寫完後測驗就就結束了,不過我們更進一步,要他們打給那位特別的人,並將寫下的內容唸給那個人聽。

    - 好可惜。 - 到那身後的世界去了。

  • You up for it?

    準備好了嗎?

    呃...嗯...好了。

  • What would you say if we called up Dora?

    如果我們打給 Dora,你會跟她說什麼?

  • We can try but she lives in Britain.

    我們可以試試看,不過她現在住在英國。

  • In Britain?

    在英國嗎?

  • Oh, I don't know her number by heart, this is awful.

  • That's fine, I don't know my mom's number right here.

    沒關係,我現在也想不起來。
