环球慢速英语 脸盲症(6)

Voice 1: So, how does a person get face blindness? Well, there are two ways. Some people with face blindness are born with the ability to recognize. But then, they suffer some kind of brain damage. Over thirty years ago, Lincoln Holmes was in a car accident. The accident damaged his brain. He can still do everything just like before — walk, talk, and work. But, since the accident, Lincoln can no longer recognize faces. He cannot even recognize people he knew before the accident happened. In the past, doctors thought that brain damage was the only way to get face blindness.

声音1：那人们怎么会患脸盲症呢？有两种原因。有些脸盲症患者出生时有辨认能力。但之后，他们遭遇了某种脑部损伤。30多年前，林肯·霍尔姆斯出了车祸。那场事故损伤了他的大脑。他仍能像以前一样做任何事情——走路、说话和工作。但是，发生车祸后，林肯再也无法辨认面部了。他甚至认不出事故发生前认识的人。过去，医生曾认为脑部损伤是导致脸盲症的唯一原因。
