Well,in the same way,if we could find some behavior on our part that calls out for explanation, that the best possible explanation would be that at some level we don't believe we're going to die, then we might say,look, this gives us some reason to think that we don't really believe we're going to die, even though we say we believe it.

同样，如果我们发现自己有些行为有待解释，这最好的解释可能就是,在某种程度上，我们不相信自己会死，然后我们说，看，这让我们有理由相信，我们并不相信我们会死，即使我们口头上说相信。
