智能时代我们丧失的能力
Expanding our knowledge base
拓宽知识面的能力
The convenience of nearly instantaneous information can easily become a crutch. If we're not knowledgeable about certain subjects such as physics, politics, or music we know we can look it up online. That's not necessarily a negative.
人们几乎都很容易依赖瞬时信息。如果我们不了解某些学科如物理、政治、或音乐,我们都知道可以在网上查。这并不一定是负面的做法。
What's problematic is that we often look up and recite the information, but don't actually absorb it. It may seem daunting, but this is arguably the easiest skill to revitalize.
问题在于我们经常查找信息并背诵信息,但实际上却并不吸收信息。这点似乎令人生畏,但可以说是恢复了一种最简单的技能。
Whenever you reference an unfamiliar subject take time to actually learn the information.
每当你引用一门自己并不是很熟悉的学科知识,实际上是在花时间学习这门学科的信息。
