II. Cloze: 5%     “The Invisible Gorilla,” 16 in 1999 by Christopher Chabris and Daniel Simons, is one ofthe best-known experiments in psychology. 17 were shown a short video of two teams, one inwhite shirts and 18 in black shirts, moving around and passing the basketball to one another.Viewers, in the meantime, had to keep a silent count of the number of passes made by the people in whiteshirts. At some point, a gorilla strolled in, faced the camera, thumped its chest, and then left, spending nineseconds on screen. With something so conspicuous right in front of the eyes, to our great astonishment,half of the people watching the video and counting the passes missed the gorilla!    The experiment reveals how people can focus so hard on something that they become blind to theunexpected, even when staring right at it. 19 , when people direct their entire mental spotlight tothe basketball passes, it leaves the rest of the world in darkness. Even when people are looking straight atthe gorilla, people frequently don’t see it, because it’s not what they’re looking for.What’s more, the experiment also reveals a naked truth: our minds don’t work the way we think theydo. We 20 think we see ourselves and the world as they really are, but actually we’re missing awhole lot!
