  “60秒科学”是一个电台节目,用一分钟的时间为大家带来新鲜、有趣的科学新闻,听众只需花一分钟便能轻松掌握科技发展新方向。盼望着,盼望着,五月来了,假期的脚步近了!要玩就赶紧——快乐的时间过得很快,时间过得快也会玩得更快乐哦!什么意思?听听就知道了!Got a minute?
  
  As we all know, time flies when you’re having fun. But according to a study in the journal Psychological Science, the reverse[相反的情况] is just as true: we enjoy ourselves more when we think time passes quickly.
  Time is a tough thing to keep track of. Sometimes it zooms[快急速移动], other times it drags[过得很慢]. And
  psychologists got to wondering, as psychologists often do: how does that make you feel?
  So they asked people to take a 10-minute test. And then they pulled a fast one[搞鬼]: For half the volunteers, they called “time’s up” when only five minutes had passed. The other half had to labor for 20 minutes before their 10-minute test was done. The result?Compared with the folks for whom time stood still, the finished-in-five team said they had more fun.
  
  众所周知,欢乐的时光总是过得飞快。但是根据《心理科学》期刊上的一项研究,这句话倒过来说也是正确的——当我们认为时间过得很快时,我们也会玩得更尽兴。
  时间的确叫人难以捉摸。有时候它飞速流逝,有时又拖拖拉拉。心理学家们便一如既往地对此发出疑问:为什么我们会有这样的
  感觉?
  于是他们让人们参加一个10分钟的测试,暗中耍了点小花招:一半志愿者仅仅进行了5分钟测试,他们就喊“时间到了”。而另一半志愿者的10分钟测试则延迟至20分钟才被叫停。结果如何?与那些感觉时间停滞不前的人相比,那些只完成了五分钟测试的组员称自己享受到更多乐趣。
