并不是。毕竟人类觉得自己是地球上最聪明的动物,但大象的大脑比人类的大两倍。鲸鱼的大脑呢?那更不用说了。所以说,大脑的大小并不是最重要的。人类的大脑确实随着进化而变大,但科学家们称,人类智慧的奥秘在于大脑的复杂性。在这一方面我们是无敌的;神经科学家杰拉德·埃德尔曼甚至将人脑描述为“宇宙中最复杂的存在”。
Nope.After all,humans believe we're the smartest animals on the planet,but elephant brains are three times larger than ours.And whale brains?Forget it.So when it comes to brains,size isn't the most important thing.Hominid brain size did increase as we evolved,but scientists say that the secret to our smarts is complexity.And nobody can beat us there;neuroscientist Gerard Edelman has even described the human brain as"the most complicated object in the universe"。
