旁白：来听心理学课程讲座中的一部分。

Narrator: Listen to part of a lecture in a Psychology class.

教授：当我们思考过去的时候，

我们对有些事情的记忆比其他事情更清楚，为什么呢？

we remember some things better than others, why is that?

Well? There are a few different explanations.

一种解释是，如果我们对某事已有一些先前的了解，我们会记得更清楚，

One explanation is that we remember something better if we already have some previous knowledge about it,

举个例子，假设你要去听古典音乐音乐会。

For example, let's say you're going to go to a classical music concert.

如果你在去听音乐会之前对古典音乐一无所知，

If you don't know anything about classical music before you go to the concert,

你可能以后不会记得音乐会的很多细节了。

you probably won't remember many details of the concert later on.

举个例子，如果有人一年后问你这场音乐会，

For example, if somebody asks you about the concert a year later,

你可能不记得管弦乐队演奏了什么曲子，

you probably won't remember what pieces the orchestra played,

what order they played them in and so on.

如果你在去听音乐会之前已经知道很多关于古典音乐的知识，

if you already know a lot about classical music before you go to the concert,

举个例子，如果你多年来一直在学习和演奏古典音乐，

for example if you've been studying and playing classical music for many years,

这可能会让你更容易回忆起音乐会的细节。

it's probably going to be much easier for you to recall the details of the concert later on.

另一种解释是，当我们想要记住的东西有不同寻常或不同的时候，我们会记得更好。

Another explanation is that we remember better when there's something unusual or different about what we're trying to remember.

举个例子，假设你在一所大学的课堂上，

For example, let's say you're in a class at a university,

一个大班，里面有一百多名学生。

a big class, with over a hundred students in it.

一年后，你最可能记得那几百个学生中的哪一个？

A year later, which of those hundred students are you most likely to remember?

可能是那些在某种程度上不同寻常或不同的人。

Probably the ones who were unusual or different in some way.

or a woman who was exceptionally intelligent.

事实上，这些学生与其他学生不同，这让他们更容易被记住。

The fact that these students were somehow different from the other students will make them easier to remember.
