介绍： Imagine that men are from Mars and women are from Venus. One day long ago the Martians, looking through their telescopes, discovered the Venusians. Just glimpsing the Venusians awakened feelings they had never known. They fell in love and quickly invented space travel and flew to Venus. The Venusians welcomed the Martians with open arms. The love between the Venusians and Martians was magical. They delighted in being together, doing things together, and sharing together. Though from different worlds, they took pleasure in their differences. For years they lived together in love and harmony. Then they decided to fly to Earth. In the beginning everything was wonderful and beautiful. But the effects of Earth’s atmosphere took hold, and one morning everyone woke up with a peculiar kind of amnesia, selective amnesia!
让我们来设想一下男人来自火星,而女人来自金星:很久以前的某一天,火星人透过望远镜眺望时,发现了金星人,对其仅仅一瞥,就唤起了他们从未有过的感觉。他们爱上了这些金星人,于是迅速发明了太空旅行装置,飞往金星。金星人张开双臂欢迎火星人。金星人和火星人之间擦出的爱火不可思议。他们喜欢呆在一起,一块儿做事,一块儿分享。尽管来自不同的世界,他们欣喜于彼此的差异。此后多年,他们沉浸在爱中,和睦相处。接着,他们决定飞往地球。一开始,一切都如此美妙。但地球的环境开始起作用,一天早上,所有人从睡梦中醒来,都患上了一种特殊的健忘症——选择性健忘症!
