If you are familiar with this scene, you’ll know how time flies when you are having fun. Now scientists have thought over a reason why this is the case.
Scans (扫描仪) have shown that patterns of activity in the brain ____14____ according to how we focus on a task. When we feel ____15____, we concentrate (专心于) more on how time is passing. And this makes our brains think the clock is ticking more slowly.
