为什么挠自己痒痒不觉得痒?大脑的预测系统是怎么工作的?
Why can't you tickle yourself? How does the brain's prediction system work?
痒感是身体对不可预测触碰的警报。自己动手时,小脑提前把动作计划抄送给体感皮层:这是我干的,别大惊小怪——警报解除,痒感消失。别人挠你,时机力度无法预测,警报照响。机器实验证明:用机械臂精确复制你自己的挠痒轨迹,痒感也会消失。大脑是个预测机器,连痒都要先核对剧本。
Ticklishness is an alarm for unpredictable touches. When you tickle yourself the cerebellum forwards your movement plan to sensory cortex: I did this, stand down — no tickle. Other people's timing and force stay unpredictable so alarms ring. Robotic arms replaying your exact trajectory erase the sensation too. The brain is a prediction machine checking scripts even for giggles.

为什么肚子饿的时候会咕噜咕噜叫?
Why does my tummy growl when I am hungry?
肚子里有一条会蠕动的消化管道,就算空着,它也照常练习收缩推挤。管道里只有空气时,挤出的声音就是咕噜咕噜——这是肚子在提醒:该给身体加燃料啦!
Inside your tummy a squishy tube keeps practicing its squeezing even when empty. With only air inside, squeezes turn into growls — your tummy announcing time to refuel!

为什么剪指甲不疼,也不会流血?头发和指甲是什么做的?
Why doesn't cutting nails or hair hurt or bleed? What are they made of?
指甲和头发都是角蛋白做成的,跟犀牛角是远房亲戚。长出来的部分没有血管也没有神经,所以剪刀咔嚓不会疼;真正活着的长甲部分藏在皮肤下面。要是剪到粉色的甲床,那里有神经和血管,可就疼了!
Nails and hair are keratin — rhino horn's cousins. The grown-out parts carry no vessels or nerves, so snips never hurt; living growth hides under skin. Cut into the pink bed though and nerves plus blood complain loudly.
