40 Timeless Days in a Cave
Woah! This is interesting.
15 people stayed inside a cave for 40 days.
And...the cave was very deep and completely dark!
There was no natural light in the cave! 有15個人在一個沒有光線的洞穴裡40天
The people inside could not know if it is daytime or nighttime!
They used electric lamps, but they couldn't bring a watch or a phone into the
cave. 這些人可以帶著電燈,但是不能帶手錶或手機進山洞
Why did they do this? Well, scientists want to learn more about time.
Time is very important for people.
We can use a watch to tell time, but even without a watch, natural light
helps us know the time.科學家想了解,人類對時間的感覺。
Do you know what time it is right now?
Maybe you don't know exactly but if you look outside you can kind of guess.
通常看一下外面,可以猜出大概的時間。
Time is a funny thing. When we have fun, time seems to go by so fast...but
when you do homework...time seems to go super slow, right?
These scientists lived without knowing the time for 40 days! And guess what?
When they came out...they said it was wonderful!
Most of the people said they wanted to stay in the cave longer!
大部分的人說他們想要在洞裡待更久
Hmm...what an interesting experiment!
