No matter how clean the treated water is, since it was once toilet water, it is still difficult for most people to swallow.
Many studies have shown that people have a strong aversion to consuming potentially contaminated food or water. Even knowing that the food and water in your hands are indeed clean, the feeling that it makes you sick doesn't go away. There are two classic experiments that verify this well. Paul Rozin, a psychologist at the University of Pennsylvania, dropped a sterilized cockroach into water, and only one of the 50 people who participated in the experiment drank the water from the cup. In another experiment, researchers placed apple juice in a brand-new, completely unused urinal. Even though everyone knows and admits that a urinal is as clean as a cup, most people refuse to drink its juice. This aversion is the same in all chuman cultures.
At this time, we need to use some psychological clues to deceive ourselves. If you think "This water turned out to be toilet water... it's disgusting..." then it is difficult to drink it, but if you think "This water turned out to be toilet water... "dirty water and has been released into nature, then it comes from nature and enters the aquatic plant again and is filtered cleanly." The feeling will be very different. Sometimes the human brain is so easy to fool. If you don't believe it, try it.
?Whether there is no water or no electricity, it is very inconvenient for our modern lives, but if I have to choose one, I think not of water can be even more unbearable.
?First of all, the first reason is that water is a necessity in our lives. Among the most basic needs of people's lives, water is an essential necessity for our survival. Whether for drinking or washing, we useLet’s use water more than electricity. Of course, it cannot be denied that we depend on electricity for lighting, entertainment, work, etc., and electricity often represents modern life, but the basic needs are more important.
?I remember one time when there was a water and electricity outage in the school dormitory, at that time I couldn't wash my face night and I couldn't flush the toilet. The hallway was filled with trash. an indescribable smell. Even though the phone couldn't be charged and the lights couldn't be turned on at that time, we all agreed that it would be better to be without power.
?Second, there are alternatives to electricity. Before the invention of electricity, people used fire for lighting, cooking and talking during the long nights. Water has existed throughout ancient and modern times as a sourcethis of life, and its importance is obvious. Let's talk about modern life. If there is no electricity, you may not be able to play games or use your cell phone, but you can spend time chatting with friends around you, or go out to do some exercise. exercise, etc., to pass boring time. time during power outages.
?Finally, from a girl's point of view, although many boys will feel like they're losing a lot of fun without electricity, but for us, the lack of water means we can't not take off our makeup at night or take a shower. Daylight saving time is probably something I can't stand at all.
? Different people may have different feelings and choices about this issue. Anyway, every time I stop drinking water I do it. It's unbearable. After all, I believe that the basic needs of life are more important than the useion of electricity for entertainment.
