Think about driving a route that’s very familiar. It could be your commute to work, a trip into town or the way home. Whichever it is, you know every twist and turn like the back of your hand. On these sorts of trips it’s easy to lose concentration on the driving and pay little attention to the passing scenery. The consequence is that you perceive that the trip has taken less time than it actually has.
设想一下，你正开车行驶在一条十分熟悉的路上。它可能是你上班的通勤路，可能是进城的一趟，或是回家的路。无论是哪一条，路上的每一处弯道、每一个转角，你都了如指掌。开这类熟路时，人很容易对驾驶本身走神，而对沿途掠过的风景也几乎不加留意。结果就是，你会觉得这趟路花的时间，比它实际花的要少。
This is the well-travelled road effect: People tend to underestimate the time it takes to travel a familiar route.
这就是「熟路效应」：人们往往会低估走一条熟悉路线所需要的时间。
The effect is caused by the way we allocate our attention. When we travel down a well-known route, because we don’t have to concentrate much, time seems to flow more quickly. And afterwards, when we come to think back on it, we can’t remember the journey well because we didn’t pay much attention to it. So we assume it was shorter.
这种效应源于我们分配注意力的方式。当我们沿着一条熟悉的路线行驶时，由于无需太过集中注意力，时间似乎就过得 更快。而事后，当我们回过头去回想这趟行程时，却记不太清了，因为当时我们并没怎么留 意它。于是，我们便想当然地以为这趟路花的时间更短。
