对一般人来说,那不过是呆板的陶瓷娃娃罢了,但在有些人眼里,这些玩偶却能讲话甚至走动。有些人只害怕某种特定玩偶,而有些人却害怕各式各样的玩偶,且避之唯恐不及。之所以害怕玩偶,可能是因为玩偶跟人很像,患症者搞不懂到底是静止不动的物体还是活生生的东西。而且说实话,大概很多人小时候半夜醒来会认为那个废弃的玩偶或泰迪熊是邪恶的入侵者吧?我敢打赌这么想的不止我一个!
15 Arachnophobia – fear of spiders (Anyone remember that movie?)
蜘蛛恐惧症——害怕蜘蛛(是不是想起了某部电影?)
This is one of the most common phobias, with women being the most likely to be affected. Some experts suggest that it may be an amplified form of a response that helped humans survive in the past, while others believe it’s a cultural phenomenon as it seems to be most prevalent in Western countries. The response is usually irrational, especially in places like the UK where spiders are not only non-venomous, but also unlikely to grow larger than your little fingernail. If you’re in Australia, however, you might be considered a little more rational.
这个恐惧症也很常见,其中患者女性居多。有专家认为,这可能跟人类远古时期的生活习性有关;也有人觉得这只是一种文化现象(西方尤甚)。人们对蜘蛛的反应通常不是很理性,尤其是在英国:那里的蜘蛛既没毒又不可能大过指甲。但是,如果你是在澳大利亚,遇到蜘蛛还真得理性一点。
