From youngest to oldest, tell us: what order would you put this boy's photos in?
要求按照年纪从最小的到最老排列,请回答:你会按照什么顺序排这个男孩的这三张照片?
Got your answer?
有答案了吗?
Most people say that the far right image is the youngest, followed by the image at left, with the oldest in center.
大多数人认为,最右边的图片是年纪最小的,其次是左边的,中间是年纪最大的。
Well, it's a trick.
好吧,这是个骗局。
Each of these images is exactly the same, just viewed from a different angle.
这几张照片其实是一模一样的,只是从不同的角度看。
The illusion works because your brain is adept at spotting features that signify age.
之所以会有这种错觉,是因为你的大脑擅长识别表明年龄的特征。
The thin lower face, small nose, chin and neck gives the image a child-like appearance.
瘦削的下脸、小鼻子、小下巴和小脖子,使这张照片看起来更像是一张孩子的照片。
Viewed from below, the jaw and neck appear fuller, proportions you'd expect to see in older teens.
而从下往上看,下巴和脖子看起来更饱满,这个比例你更可能会在十几岁的孩子身上看到。
