Let's all stop judging people who talk to themselves. New research says that those who can't seem to keep their inner monologues (独白) in are actually more likely to stay on task, remain __26__ better and show improved perception capabilities. Not bad, really, for some extra muttering.

让我们都停止评判那些自言自语的人。新研究表明，那些似乎无法控制内心独白（独白）的人实际上更可能专注于任务、保持更好的专注力，并表现出改善的感知能力。对于一些额外的嘀咕来说，这真的不错。

According to a series of experiments published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology by professors Gary Lupyan and Daniel Swignley, the act of using verbal clues to __27__ mental pictures helps people function quicker.

In other experiments, Lupyan and Swignley found that __31__ the name of a common product when on the hunt for it helped quicken someone's pace, but talking about uncommon items showed no advantage and slowed you down.

在一个实验中，他们向二十名志愿者展示了各种物体的图片；并要求他们找到其中一个，香蕉。一半被指示大声重复他们在找什么，另一半则保持沉默。研究人员说，那些自言自语的人找到香蕉的速度比不自言自语的人稍快。在其他实验中，Lupyan和Swignley发现，在寻找常见产品时说出其名称有助于加快某人的步伐，但谈论不常见的物品则没有优势，反而会减慢你的速度。

Common research has long held that talking themselves through a task helps children learn, although doing so when you've __32__ matured is not a great sign of __33__ The two professors hope to refute that idea, __34__ that just as when kids walk themselves through a process, adults can benefit from using language not just to communicate, but also to help "augment thinking".

长期以来，普遍研究认为，通过自言自语来完成任务有助于儿童学习，尽管在成熟后这样做并不是傲慢的一个好迹象。这两位教授希望反驳这一观点，声称就像孩子们通过自言自语来完成一个过程一样，成年人也可以从使用语言中受益，不仅是为了交流，还可以帮助“增强思维”。
