申論題

Prior to the invention of writing, our ancestors had to rely on memory, sketches, or music to encode and preserve important information. Memory is fallible, of course, but not because of storage limitations so much as retrieval limitations. Some neuroscientists believe that nearly every conscious experience is stored somewhere in your brain; the hard part is finding it and pulling it out again. Sometimes the information that comes out is incomplete, distorted, or misleading.

在文字發明之前，我們的祖先不得不依靠記憶、草圖或音樂來編碼和保存重要信息。當然，記憶是容易出錯的，但不是因為存儲限制，而是因為檢索限制。一些神經科學家認為，幾乎所有有意識的體驗都存儲在你大腦的某個地方。困難的部分是找到它並再次將其拉出。有時出來的信息是不完整的、歪曲的或誤導的。
