英語(yǔ)時(shí)差：眼睛飛快掃視（中）

The kind of quick eye motion we’re talking about is called a saccade, from a French word meaning to twitch or jerk. During the fraction of a second that a saccade takes, images sweep over our retinas at high speed. Yet we don’t get a feeling of motion, because our brain suppresses visual perception during saccades. Otherwise, the world might look to us like a bad home video where the photographer held the “record” button down while swinging the camera around the room. An odd thing about this suppression is that it’s not complete. Get in the car and have someone drive you past a roadside fence. Without moving your head, glance quickly from front to back; you can make the fenceposts seem to freeze for an instant.
