图书馆:常見錯誤觀念列表
{{vfd|收录标准不明,目前内容可能更像Wikipedia:维基志异会收录的东西,非常明显的英语地域中心|date=2023/12/20}}
{{动态列表}} 以下是常见错误观念的列表,每个条目包括错误观念与改正确的声明。
常见错误观念是一系列经常被认为是真实的观点或趣闻,但实际上是错误的。它们通常产生于传统观念、刻板印象、迷信、谬误、对科学的误解或伪科学的普及。一些常见错误观念也被认为是都市传说,并常常涉及道德恐慌。
艺术与文化
编辑商业
编辑- 爱迪达的原文名称“Adidas”并非“All day I dream about sports”、“All day I dream about soccer”或“All day I dream about sex”的缩写。其实该公司的名称是于1949年以其创始人阿道夫·“阿迪”·达斯勒(Adolf "Adi" Dassler)的名字命名。这些反讥的缩写是在1978年和1981年发表的玩笑[1][2][3]。
- 圣诞老人的常见形象(红袍老人)并不是在1930年代可口可乐公司为广告噱头所创造的。事实上在19世纪末期,红袍圣诞老人的形象已经在美国流行文化和广告中出现。[4]。
- 网飞并不是在其联合创始人里德·哈斯廷斯被百视达被迫收取40美元的滞纳金后一怒之下成立的。网飞的创立实际上是受到亚马逊公司的启发,而这个故事是由哈斯廷斯“编造”来总结网飞的企业价值主张[5][6][7][8]。
- 百事公司从未成为拥有全球第六强海军实力的企业。百事公司在1989年与苏联达成交易后,价值数百万美元的百事可乐被用来换取20艘报废战舰,而这些战舰随即被卖掉拆解[9][10]。
饮食与烹饪
编辑- 炙烤肉类并不会将肉汁密封在肉中,相反地这么做会导致肉失去部分水分。炙烤的目的是为了让肉上色,改善色泽、风味和质地[11]。
- 味精并不会引起偏头痛或其他所谓的味精症候群,也没有证据表明有人对味精产生过敏。 [12]
- 除了一些易腐食品外,储存得当的食品通常可以在过期之后安全食用。所谓“有效日期”是代表制造商保证产品品质的最后一天[13][14]。在美国,绝大多数的有效日期都由州政府监管,其目的为确保食品的品质而非安全性。部分地区(如日本)更区别“保存期限”及“赏味期限”,以保存期限的2/3作为赏味期限[15]。
- 辣椒的辛辣味不是来自种子。 辣味源自于辣椒素,而辣椒籽中的辣椒素含量很低。事实上辣椒素浓度最高的部位是辣椒籽所附着的胎座组织(髓质)[16][17]。
- 火鸡肉中的色氨酸含量不是特别高,不会比其他食物更容易引起嗜睡[18][19]。 感恩节大餐等节日餐后的嗜睡一般来自于暴饮暴食[19] 。
饮食史
编辑- 幸运饼干在美国和其他西方国家的中餐馆里十分常见,但在中国与其他东亚地区华人聚居的地区并没有食用这种食物的习俗。实际上幸运饼干是在日本发明的并被引入美国[20]。在幸运饼干在中国被认为是美国菜且很罕见[21]。
- 马铃薯片并非由{{le|乔治·克鲁姆|George Speck}}(George Crum)因为客人抱怨他的炸薯条太厚且不够咸而发明的[22][23][24]。早在1817年的烹饪书中就有薯片的食谱了[24][25]。这个误解是在圣雷吉斯纸业公司(St. Regis Paper Company)在1973年的一次广告宣传活动中被传开来的[26]。
- 香料在中世纪并非用来掩盖腐肉的味道,而是昂贵的奢侈品。只有负担得起昂贵调味料的人能买到好的肉,当时也没有文件记载用香料来掩饰腐肉的味道[27]。
- 鞑靼牛肉并不是蒙古族人意图在马鞍下嫩化肉而创发的菜肴[28],也与鞑靼人饮食无关。这道菜起源于20世纪初的欧洲,是德国美式汉堡排的变体 [29][30]。
- 生奶油不是法国主厨弗朗索瓦·瓦德勒在1671年于尚蒂伊城堡发明的。这个食谱至少在一个世纪前的意大利就有记载,“尚蒂伊奶油”这个名字直到19世纪才出现[31]。
- 马克·波罗并没有把中国拉面带到意大利,而演变成意大利面。此说法是由美国的食物业推广,以增加意大利面的销售率 [32][33] 。
- 同样地,意大利披萨并非由马克·波罗带到意大利的中国葱油饼而演变而成 [34]。披萨早于10世纪时已在地中海地区流传 [35][36]。
- 没有资料记载玛丽·安东尼曾说过“何不食蛋糕?”(法语:Qu'ils mangent de la brioche)。这句话最早出现在卢梭第六卷《忏悔录》中,文中是由一位没有被作者命名的“崇高公主”所说的 [37]。
关于微波炉的误解
编辑- 微波炉并不是使用一个特定频率的微波来共振食物中的水分子,而是产生一道宽广的频谱[38][39][40],通过对包括水在内的极性分子以{{tsl|en|Dielectric heating|介电加热}}来烹饪食物。
- 微波炉不是从内部向外烹饪食物。 2.45 GHz的微波只能穿透大多数食物约{{convert|1|cm|in|frac=8|sp=us|abbr=off}}的深度。更厚的食物内部部分主要是由从外部部分传导的热进行加热[41]。
- 微波炉并不会引起癌症。 微波是非游离辐射,所以不会具有X射线等游离辐射所带来的癌症风险。没有任何研究发现微波会引起癌症,即使暴露于远超过正常剂量的微波辐射之下[42]。
- 微波加热食物不会降低其营养价值,甚至由于烹饪时间较短,可能比其他烹饪过程更好地保留其营养价值[43]。
文学
编辑- 许多引用都错误的归属于从未说过它们的人,来自鲜为人知或未知作者的引语常被归属于更著名的人物。常常被错误引用的人物包括马克·吐温、阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦、阿道夫·希特勒、温斯顿·邱吉尔、亚伯拉罕·林肯、威廉·莎士比亚、孔子、孙武和佛陀等[44]。
- “我并不同意你的观点,但是我誓死捍卫你说话的权利”这句话不是伏尔泰说的,而是出现在伊夫林·比阿特丽斯·霍尔的《伏尔泰的朋友们》一书中[45][46]。
- 玛丽·雪莱在1818年出版的小说《科学怪人》的原文名称“Frankenstein”是以创造了科学怪人的虚构科学家维多·法兰克斯坦命名的。科学怪人实际上没有名字,只被称为弗兰肯斯坦的怪物。然而,随着后来的改编作品把怪物称为弗兰肯斯坦,这种用法便被沿用并不再被视为错误[47][48]。
音乐
编辑古典音乐
编辑- 莫扎特并非死于中毒,也没有被他的同事安东尼奥·萨列里或其他人毒害{{sfn|Solomon|1995|p=587}}。此谣言在萨列里去世后甚嚣尘上,并在亚历山大·普希金1832年的戏剧《{{tsl|en|Mozart and Salieri (play)|莫扎特和萨利耶里}}》、彼得·谢弗1979年的舞台剧作品《{{link-en|Amadeus|Amadeus}}》及其于1984年的翻拍电影中被过度戏剧化[49]。
- 聆听古典音乐(如莫札特的作品)并不能提高智商。一项1993年于自然期刊上发表的研究报告显示,聆听后短期内可以改善空间推理能力[50][51]。然而随后的证据表明这么做实际上并没有多少效果,顶多只是与高昂情绪和兴奋相关的短期影响。这与此前在自然期刊上最初发表的成果前后不一[52][53][54][55]。
{{Listen | filename = en-us-minute-adjective.ogg | title = Minute Waltz(一分钟圆舞曲) | description = minute在此名称中的正确英语发音 | type = speech | pos = right }}
- 降D大调“小狗”圆舞曲有时也被称为“一分钟圆舞曲”(Minute Waltz),但并非所谓“一分钟就能弹完”的圆舞曲。实际上这首曲子所需的弹奏时间平均需要两分钟[56]。名中的“Minute”在此意为“短小”、“微小”,而并不指“一分钟”[57]。
流行音乐
编辑- 《雪绒花》并非奥地利的国歌,而是《仙乐飘飘处处闻》的原创乐曲。奥地利的国歌为《山的土地,河的土地》[58]。
- 概念专辑并不是在1960年代才在摇滚音乐中开始流行。这种专辑格式早在1940年代和1950年代就被像弗兰克·辛纳屈等歌手所采用[59]。
宗教
编辑佛教
编辑犹太教
编辑基督教
编辑- 没有证据证明耶稣是在12月25日出生,这个日期是由教宗儒略一世在350年订立的。[63][64][65]
- 圣经中并没有指明耶稣出生后,探访智者的数量为三名,亦没有指他们是国王。
- 圣经中并没有指明抹大拉的马利亚为妓女。
伊斯兰教
编辑- 《可兰经》并没有指明殉教者可在死后获得72名处女。《可兰经》提及所有人(不论是否殉教者)都可在天堂获得处子之身的同伴。72此数字是在《提尔密济圣训集》所提及的,而圣训虽然被认为是穆罕默德的教义,但并非《可兰经》的一部分。[66][67]
语言
编辑- 手语在全球范围内并不相同。除了国际手语的皮钦语之外,每个国家通常都有自己的本土手语,有些国家甚至有不止一种手语[68]。
- 爱斯基摩人,例如因纽特人和阿留申人,在他们的语言中有大量的描写雪的词语,这一错误观念来自于对弗朗茨·博厄斯一个论述的错误理解,博厄斯提到爱斯基摩人拥有许多与雪有关的词语(而非描写不同形状的雪的词语),实际上博厄斯注意到这一点同样适用于英语[69][70]。
法律、犯罪和军事
编辑- 报失失踪人口并不一定需要等待24小时。如果有暴力或非寻常失踪的证据,及时展开调查非常重要[71]。例如英国政府建议:“在联系警方之前,您不必等待24小时。”[72]犯罪学专家表示,失踪人口调查的前72小时是最关键的[73]。
- 市政委员丹·怀特食用大量Twinkies奶油夹心蛋糕后杀害旧金山市长乔治·莫斯科尼和市政委员哈维·米尔克。传媒将怀特食用Twinkies蛋糕等高糖分的零食、导致脑部化学物质失衡并陷入抑郁归咎为这起事件的直接原因。事实上,在著名的甜点抗辩中,辩方成功论证怀特因严重抑郁症而导致判断能力下降,以他作案前曾暴食大量零食这件事引用作为他精神失常的事证,并非是指他因暴食大量甜点导致精神失常[74]。
- 黑手党等犯罪组织并不常使用或曾经使用所谓“水泥鞋酷刑”(将受刑者的脚放入煤块中,而后填充湿水泥,最后将受刑者扔入水中)淹死他们的受害者[75]。事实上仅有两起谋杀案被记录使用这种方法:一起是在1964年,另一起是在2016年(就算在前者中,受害者的腿也是被绑上水泥块而不是被封在水泥中)[76]。不过法军在阿尔及利亚战争期间确实曾对被杀害的阿尔及利亚人使用死亡飞行时用上了“水泥鞋”[77]。
- 在美国,被告不会因为在被逮捕时未被告知米兰达警告而直接被驳回审理。米兰达警告涉及当嫌疑人被扣留并接受盘问时的权利[78][79],如果嫌疑人在接受盘问之前没有被告知米兰达警告,他们在盘问期间所作出的陈述可能不会被接受为证据。不过检方仍然可以提出其他形式的证据,或者以嫌疑人在被告知米兰达警告之后所作出的陈述来证明其有罪。 [80]
- 在新加坡不会因为嚼口香糖而被处以鞭刑。尽管自1992年起,在新加坡进口和贩售口香糖一直是非法的,且鞭刑仍是该国某些罪行的适用体罚,但这两者并没有关联。违反口香糖禁令只会受到罚款和监禁,嚼口香糖本身并不违法[81]。
- 国际刑警组织的员工并无执法权,不能进行调查、逮捕罪犯甚至使用假护照。他们旨在支援并促进主权国家执法机构之间的国际合作[82][83]。
- 文学作品很流行出现在犯罪现场使用粉笔勾勒尸体轮廓的场景,但在现代犯罪现场调查中实际上很少这么做[84]。
历史
编辑古代史
编辑- 埃及金字塔并非是由奴隶建造。考古学证据表明金字塔工人是由熟练的工匠和在休耕期时的贫穷农民组成,后者可能被征召为国家服务,并以优质的食物和免除税务的地位作为报酬[85][86][87][88][89] 。使用奴隶的说法起源于古希腊历史学家希罗多德的著作,而使用以色列奴隶的观点在金字塔落成数个世纪之后才出现的[87][89][90]。
- 古希腊和古罗马的雕塑最初是有颜色的;它们今天呈现白色是因为颜料脱落了。一些保存较好的雕塑依然有其最初的颜色[91][92]。
- 图坦卡蒙的陵墓上没有刻有所谓法老的诅咒。这是由20世纪的小报捏造的[93]。
- 罗马式敬礼,即伸出完全伸直的手臂并将手掌向下,并非古罗马时期所使用。这个手势最早与古罗马相关联是在1784年法国艺术家雅克-路易·大卫的绘画《荷拉斯兄弟之誓》中,并在后来启发了其他敬礼,最著名的即是纳粹礼[94]。
- 剖腹产的英文名“Caesarean Section”源自Caesarea。按字面解释,即为凯撒的切开。在德文、日文之中,这种手术都被称为“帝王切开”。但是,凯撒并不是透过剖腹产出生的。在凯撒时代,剖腹产是极端危险的手术,对于母亲来说几乎是一个必死的选择。凯撒的母亲在他45岁时还活着[95][96]。而“Caesarean”一词可能来自拉丁动词“caedere”,意为“切割”[97]。
- 古希腊哲学家希帕提娅之死,并不是因为她持有异端宗教观点,而是因为她卷入了她的好友兼学生亚历山大城总督{{绿链|en|Orestes (prefect)|欧瑞斯提斯}}和总主教亚历山大的西里尔间的政治矛盾,最终被一群基督教修士残忍杀害[98]。她的死亡也与亚历山大图书馆的消亡无关[99],该图书馆很可能在希帕提娅出生前数个世纪就已经不存在了[99]。
- 小西庇阿在第三次布匿战争中战胜迦太基以后并没有将该城夷为平地并洒盐。这一说法源于《剑桥古代史》1930年版中的一篇错误文章[100]。
中世纪
编辑- 中世纪并不是“无知、野蛮和迷信的时代”,教会也没有将宗教权威凌驾于个人经验和理性活动之上。现代历史学家倾向避免使用“黑暗时代”这一词语[101]。
- 不论用什么方法来测量,现代人的预期寿命确实比中世纪或更以前的人还来得高许多[102];不过预期寿命常常错误地和一个成年人预期可存活的寿命相混淆,这个混淆会导致“成年人不太可能活过平均寿命”这种错误的印象。事实上,成年人已经避免了许多会在幼年时期导致死亡的因素,因此成年人的预期寿命会远远高于出生时的预期寿命[103]。不同年龄的人的预期寿命,尤其是儿童期之后的人的预期寿命,常常会和出生时的预期寿命有很大的差异,在工业革命前更是如此。 [103]例如在十三世纪时,英国贵族的平均寿命大约是30岁,但对于当时活到21岁的成年男性而言,他们的预期寿命大约是64岁。
- 没有证据或文物显示维京人的头盔上有角作装饰。这在战斗中非常不实用[104]。
- 维京人也不会用敌人的头盖骨作酒碗。此源自一项错误翻译,于将诗中使用的“ór bjúgviðum hausa”(直译为头骨枝条)译作头盖骨,但实际上是指{{tsl|en|drinking horn|牛角杯}}[105]。
- 维京人并没有将冰岛命名为“冰岛”以阻止其他人前往定居。最早到达冰岛的弗洛基等人到达岛上时看到了冰,因此这样命名[106]。相对的格陵兰(Greenland,“绿地”)的命名希望借此名称吸引定居者[107]。
- 铁处女并非于中世纪发明,或曾用于酷刑,而是在18世纪时,博物馆为哗众取宠而凑合成的作品。 [108]
- 欧洲士兵的板甲并不会使人不便于行,也不需要被吊起来才能骑上马。士兵们通常会在地面上战斗,可以在不需要他人协助下自己上下马匹[109]。 中世纪后期在比武中使用的盔甲比在战争中使用的要重得多[110],这可能促成了这种误解。
- 关于贞操带(防止女性发生性行为的装置)是否在中世纪时期发明,现代历史学家对此存在争议,认为大多数现存的贞操带不是赝品,就是在19世纪和20世纪初的反手淫装置[111]。
- 中世纪的欧洲学者并不相信地球是平的。自公元前500年以来知识分子就已知地球是圆的。 古希腊时期,柏拉图和亚里斯多德已经提出了地圆说[112]。这个迷思是在17世纪由新教徒为反驳天主教的教义而创造的[113]。
- 中世纪的地图制作者并不常在地图上写上“此处有龙”的字样。只有亨特-莱诺克斯地球仪和鸵鸟蛋地球仪在东南亚的海岸旁写有这句话。同时期的地图上通常会写“此处有狮子”。地图上偶尔会有描绘神话中的野兽(龙和大海蛇)或是珍奇异兽(如大象)的插图[114][115][116][117]。
- 哥伦布在游说各国资助其旅行时处处碰壁。但这并非受到地平说的影响,而是出资者担心哥伦布低估了从欧洲到东印度群岛的距离[118]。事实上,哥伦布因为两个计算错误而严重低估了地球的周长[119]。 “哥伦布证明地球是圆的”这一神话是由作家华盛顿·欧文在《哥伦布的生平和航行》一书中宣传的[112][120]。
- 哥伦布并不是第一个造访美洲的欧洲人[121]。 维京人莱夫·埃里克松在10世纪末已经踏足文兰(纽芬兰岛与圣劳伦斯湾延伸到新不伦瑞克省东北部一代)。 兰塞奥兹牧草地遗址证明维京人在纽芬兰建立至少一个定居点。此外,哥伦布从未到达北美大陆,只到达南美大陆(1498-1500年)和一些加勒比海群岛的岛屿。
- 当时西欧和北非地区的黑死病很可能不是由老鼠引起的,而是由其携带的跳蚤和虱子等害虫引起的[122]。
近现代
编辑- 阿兹特克帝国的墨西加人并没有把埃尔南·科尔特斯领导的探险队奉为神明。这个神话出自弗朗西斯科·洛佩斯·德·戈马拉(Francisco López de Gómara)。戈马拉从未去过墨西哥,他在为征服帝国几年后回到西班牙的科尔特斯工作时编造了这个神话[123]。
- 艾萨克·牛顿没有因为苹果砸中他的头而受到启发去研究万有引力。牛顿本人表示这个想法是在他静思时想到苹果的下落而出现[124]。
- 被控使用巫术之人在塞勒姆审巫案期间不会被活活烧死,而是用其他形式处决。被指控的人中,有19人被判有罪并被绞死、至少有5人死在狱中,另有1人因拒绝认罪而在胸口被堆石块压死[125]。
- 拿破仑并非矮子。事实上他比普通的法国人高。 [126][127]
- 狮身人面像的鼻子并非在拿破仑远征埃及时被法军炮击而脱落。它的鼻子自至少10世纪以来就已经不见了[128] 。
- 爱因斯坦在学校并没有数学不及格的纪录。爱因斯坦曾说:“我在数学方面从未失手......十五岁之前我已经掌握了微积分[129]。” 爱因斯坦的确在1895年第一次尝试考取苏黎世联邦理工学院时落榜,但这时的他比其他考生年轻两岁,且数学和科学部分的成绩非常优异。他再考第二次后就通过考试[130]。
- 诺贝尔没有因为与数学家哥斯塔·米塔-列夫勒不合而不设立诺贝尔奖数学奖,也不是因为诺贝尔的配偶与一位数学家有染。很少有证据表明诺贝尔与米塔-列夫勒见过面,且诺贝尔终生未婚。对此,更可能的解释是诺贝尔认为数学对于造福人类来说“过于理论化”,以及他个人对该领域缺乏兴趣[131]。 {{crossreference|(另见:诺贝尔奖争议)}}
- 《解放奴隶宣言》并未使美国所有奴隶获得自由,也没有使奴隶制在美国非法化。该宣言只适用于联邦纳入控制下的邦联领土,边境州(德拉瓦州、肯塔基州、马里兰州、密苏里州和西维吉尼亚州)的奴隶制度因其仍效忠联邦而丝毫不受影响,其包含近50万名未解放奴隶。该宣言对田纳西州、维吉尼亚州和路易斯安那州的特别豁免权也使另外30万名奴隶未能获得解放。这些奴隶在之后才通过各种不同的州和联邦诉讼得到解放[132][133][134][135][136][137]。
- 爱迪生在电流战争期间没有在反交流电示威活动中电死一头大象。爱迪生从未到访该象所在的月亮公园,且电刑大象这起事件是在电流战争十年后发生的[138]。这种说法可能源于爱迪生电影公司制作了这一事件的记录。
- 美国禁酒令并未使在美国饮酒非法化。 美国宪法第十八修正案和沃尔斯泰德法禁止在美国境内生产、销售和运输“有毒酒类”,持有和饮酒从未被禁止[139][140]。
- 1929年华尔街股灾时,并没有股票经纪人因情绪低落跳楼自杀。这个谣言源自温斯顿·丘吉尔所述,一名男子从{{tsl|en|Savoy-Plaza Hotel|萨沃伊酒店}}跳楼,而丘吉尔当时就住在该酒店的下一层。事实上他是一名德国游客,且该事故是一场意外[141]。
- 奥森·威尔斯的《世界大战》播出时,并没有在美国引起广泛恐慌。实际上,当时只有少数人收听该节目。 [142][143]
- 二战波兰战役中,波兰骑兵并没有向德国坦克发动攻击。此传说可能是受波兰骑兵攻击德军步兵营的克罗加提战役所启发。 [144][145]
- 冷战时的美苏热线并非红色的电话,而是一部电传打字机,其后改成传真机。[146]
科学
编辑天文学和航空航天
编辑- 科学上没有证据表明天体的运行会影响人的命运。 占星学在预测未来事件方面的能力已经被多次证明为无效[147][148][149]。
- 太空人看起来处于失重状态时是因为他们处于自由落体[150],而不是因为他们离地球太远,以至于地球的引力可以忽略不计。例如在国际太空站上地球引力几乎是地表的90%。在太空中轨道运行的物体如果没有重力作用就无法维持轨道,且重力场事实上能够一直延伸到星际空间的深处[151][152][153][154][155][156]。
- 月球背面有时会被称为月球“暗面”,但该面接收到的太阳光与“正面”接收到的大致相同。 “暗面”一词并不意味着它从不接收光线,而是因为月球的同一面始终面向地球,因此该面直到月球3号前去探测前都是未知的[157][158][159][160][161]。
- 黑洞对周遭物体的重力效应与其他同等质量的物体相同[162]。例如,如果太阳被同样质量的黑洞替换,行星的轨道基本上不会受到影响。黑洞确实能够吸引吞噬大量的周围物质,但前提是形成该黑洞的恒星在塌缩前就有如此现象。 [163]
- 季节变化不是因为地球在夏季比冬季更接近太阳,而是由于地球倾斜了23.4度。每个半球在其各自的夏季(北半球在七月,南半球在一月)朝向太阳倾斜,因此受到阳光直射且白昼更长,冬季则相反。地球在一月份到达近日点,在七月份到达远日点,和北半球季节的温度趋势相反[164]。地球与太阳的距离(轨道离心率)确实可以影响季节与温度,但在地球上这种影响很小,且被其他因素完全抵销[165][166]。
- 物体进入大气层时的热力并不来自摩擦力,而是来自绝热过程[167][168][169]。
- 一年中的每一天都可以立蛋,而不仅仅是在立春、春分或是端午节这样的日子[170]。任何天文现象与蛋是否能被立起来之间没有任何关系。 [171]
- 太空笔不是由NASA以数百万美元的成本委托开发,苏联也没有反问为何不使用铅笔就好。太空笔是由飞梭太空笔公司创始人保罗·C·费雪(Paul C. Fisher)投入自己一百万美元的资金独立开发的[172]。 NASA对该笔进行了测试并批准了其用于太空任务,然后以每支6美元的价格购买了400支笔[173]。随后苏联也为其联盟号飞船的任务购买了太空笔[174]。
- 果珍、魔鬼毡和铁氟龙等并非NASA为太空飞行开发的技术副产品,但许多其他产品(如记忆海绵和太空毯)却是如此[175]。
- 太阳实际上是白色而不是黄色的[176]。 大气散射使得太阳在日出和日落时看起来是黄色、橙色或红色[176]。
- 没有美国阿波罗计划的太空人说过在月球上能够看到万里长城。事实上,万里长城只能在290公里高度以下,才能被肉眼观看。 [177][178]
- 大霹雳模型并不能完全解释宇宙的起源。它并不能描述能量、时间和空间的起因,而是描述了现在的宇宙是如何从一个超高密度、高温的起始状态中诞生出来的[179]。
生物学和生理学
编辑脊椎动物
编辑- 公牛不会被斗牛士使用的红色斗篷激怒。牛是色盲,红色在它们眼中并不突出。它们的攻击性是来自斗牛者挑衅性的动作[181]。
- 旅鼠在迁徙时并不会集体跳崖自杀。 1958年迪士尼纪录片《{{le|白色旷野|White Wilderness (film)}}》中出现的旅鼠自杀场景完全是假的[182]。这个错误概念早在19世纪末就已经存在,但其确切的起源尚不清楚[183]。
- 狗并不是通过唾液来排汗[184]。实际上狗是有汗腺的,且汗腺并不是只分布于舌头上。狗主要通过脚掌排汗。不过,狗确实是将喘气作为一种体温调节的手段[185]。
- 狗的衰老速度并不一定比人类快七倍。狗的衰老速度因品种而异。大多数狗在第一年的成长过程中都会有一致的年龄并于一岁时进入青春期。小型和中型品种在成年后的衰老速度明显放缓,某些品种(如大型犬和斗牛犬)的寿命则远短于平均[186]。
- 狼不会对着月亮嚎叫,月相也不会影响狼嚎[187]。狼会在很多情况下嚎叫,例如在狩猎前后召集群体、警报(特别是在巢穴中)、在过陌生领地时相互定位,以及在远距离间进行沟通等[188]。
- 狼群中没有所谓的“领袖”。在早期文献中,狼群通常被描述为具有严格的社会阶级结构,但是研究只观察了被关在圈养环境中、彼此没有血亲关联的的成年狼群。在野外的狼群就如同核心家庭:父母会掌管家庭, 直到幼狼长大并发展自己的家庭。年轻的狼不会推翻“领袖”成为新的领袖[189][190]。
- 蝙蝠不是瞎子。虽然大约70%的蝙蝠物种(主要是小蝙蝠)使用回声定位来导航,但所有蝙蝠物种都有眼睛且具有视力。此外,几乎所有的狐蝠都无法使用回声定位,且具有良好的夜视能力[191]。
- 温水煮青蛙这一寓言并不准确。青蛙一旦被扔进沸水中会立即死亡,而非跳出来。如果把青蛙放入水中逐渐加热,青蛙会因设法逃离而变的越来越来活跃,并最终跳出[192]。
- 金鱼的记忆力不只维持3秒,而是可以维持几个月[193][194]。
- 鲨鱼会得癌症。 1992年的书籍《鲨鱼不会得癌症》宣传鲨鱼软骨萃取物可用于癌症预防治疗,造成了这样的错误看法。目前已有关于鲨鱼得癌症的报告,并且现有数据也还不能对鲨鱼的肿瘤发生率下定论[195]。
- 大白鲨并不会将潜水员误认为海豹等鳍足类动物。在攻击鳍足类动物时,鲨鱼会快速浮出水面并猛烈展开攻击。相比之下,鲨鱼对人类的攻击速度较慢,攻击力度也较小。鲨鱼会以正常速度冲刺,咬一口后便游开。事实上大白鲨有卓越的视力和彩色视觉,它们咬人不是为了捕食,单纯只是出于好奇,咬一下以识别陌生的物体[196]。
- 蛇并不能脱臼以增加张口度。蛇的下颚骨的后端有着特化的方骨,其细长且非常灵活,能允许下颚向外延伸。此外蛇的下颚骨间是由韧带相连,使其向外弯曲,增加口张度[197][198]。
- 番茄汁和番茄沙司不能消除臭鼬的气味。这只是因为人们的嗅觉疲劳造成的错觉[199]。对于被臭鼬喷中的犬只,{{le|美国人道主义协会|Humane Society of the United States}}建议使用稀释过的双氧水(3%)、小苏打和洗碗精混合的溶液[200]。
- 豪猪不会发射出它们的棘刺来攻击敌人。豪猪的刺可以脱离身体,而它们会刻意倒退到敌人身上来刺它们,但豪猪刺并不会“发射”出去[201][202][203]。
- 老鼠并没有特别爱吃起司。老鼠只会在没有更好的食物选择时吃起司,而它们实际上偏爱含糖的甜食。这个迷思可能来自于冰箱发明之前,起司通常被放在户外存放,因此对老鼠来说是一种容易取得的食物[204]。
- 没有可信的证据表明卷须寄生鲶(一种南美洲的寄生性鲶鱼)会在人们于它所在的水中排尿时误入他们的尿道。这种事件的唯一记录案例出现在1997年的文献中,但其在同侪审查中受到严厉批评。这种现象现在被广泛认为是一种谬误[205]。
- 食人鱼是杂食性动物,不只吃肉。且它们结成鱼群只是为了防御天敌,并非攻击行为。它们极少攻击人类,只有在感到压力和威胁时才会咬人,而且通常只会咬手和脚[206]。
- 河马的乳汁不是粉红色的。河马皮肤会分泌的一种红色色素“河马汗酸”,但这不会影响它们乳汁的颜色。其乳汁颜色一样为白色或米色[207]。
- 人类碰触或照顾鸟蛋或幼鸟并不会导致成鸟遗弃它们[208],对其他动物(如犬猫)来说亦是如此。一般来说这么做都不会导致成年动物遗弃幼崽,除了兔子有可能会感到受创并离开巢穴[209]。
{{Listen | filename = Bald_Eagle_Yellowstone_National_Park.ogg | title = 白头海雕的鸣叫声 | description = 白头海雕的鸣叫声,录于黄石国家公园 | pos = right | help = no }}
- 在流行文化中,美国的国鸟白头海雕通常被描绘成有着宏亮抖擞的鸣叫声,但这实际上是红尾𫛭的声音。实际上白头海雕的叫声柔和,听起来更像海鸥的叫声[210][211]。
- 鸵鸟不会把把头埋进土里里来躲避敌人或睡觉[212]。这种误解的起源尚不确定,但可能是由古罗马学者老普林尼(23-79年)所流传。他写道鸵鸟“会想像当它们把头和脖子伸进灌木丛里,整个身体就都隐藏起来了”[213]。
- 变色龙的变色能力并非仅为了伪装而演化而来,而且变色龙无法完美改变其肤色以完全融入背景[214]。
无脊椎动物
编辑- 不是所有的蚯蚓被切成两半就能变成两条蚯蚓。只有少数蚯蚓物种[215]具有头部再生能力[216]。
- 家蝇的平均寿命为20至30天,并非24小时[217]。这个观念可能源自于把家蝇与蜉蝣搞混了,某些蜉蝣物种的成虫寿命只有5分钟[218]。
- 人并不会在睡眠中吞下大量的蜘蛛。睡眠中的人会发出声音,对蜘蛛而言是带有危险的警告[219][220]。大多数人也都会在脸上有蜘蛛时从睡眠中醒来[221]。
- 熊蜂的飞行并不违反空气动力学,而是由于昆虫飞行的物理机制不同于固定翼飞机,因此在1934年一本书中的错误推论导致了这种误解。事实上科学家对昆虫飞行已经有相当完善的理解[223]。
- 蜜蜂对许多植物的授粉固然至关重要,但若没有蜜蜂为植物授粉,人类并不会因此饥饿或灭绝。有观念指如果没有蜜蜂的授粉,人类会在四年内饿死[224],但事实上许多重要的作物根本不需要昆虫授粉。占人类食物能量总量60%的十大重要作物均属于此类[225][226]。
- 白蚁并不是蚂蚁,也不是蚂蚁的近亲。白蚁实际上和蟑螂亲缘关系更接近[227][228][229]。
- 虽然蟑螂对辐射的耐受性比脊椎动物高得多,但不代表蟑螂对辐射免疫,蟑螂也不比其他昆虫更具有耐辐射能力。蟑螂不会是唯一能够在受到核辐射污染的环境中生存的生物[230][231]。由于不是所有蟑螂都在同一时间蜕皮(最易受到辐射影响的阶段),因此许多蟑螂不会受到急性辐射爆发的影响,但持续和更严重的辐射仍然会对它们造成伤害。蟑螂更无法在直接的核爆中生存[232][233]。
- 把尿涂抹在被海蜇螫伤的部位上并不能缓解疼痛[234]。此观念在传统民间流传几百年[235][236],并且据说因为六人行的其中一集而变得更加流行[236]。
植物
编辑- 食虫植物可以在没有昆虫的情况下存活。不过捕捉昆虫可以促进它们生长[237]。
- 圣诞红对人类和猫科动物不是剧毒的。其汁液确实会对皮肤或胃部产生轻微刺激[238],有时还可能会导致腹泻和呕吐,但很少会引起严重的健康问题[239]。
- 向日葵不会一直朝向太阳。开花的向日葵会整天面向一个固定方向(通常是东方),但不一定面向太阳[240]。在其早期的发育阶段(花苞出现之前)幼苗会追踪太阳的运动,并导致成熟的向日葵固定朝向某个方向排列[241]。
- 蕈类、霉菌等真菌不是植物。真菌在形态和生活方式上与植物有相似之处并曾归类为植物,但此观念已经过时。现代分子生物学证据显示真菌与动物更为相关,但真菌仍然常被包含在植物学的课程和教科书中[242][243][244]。
生物演化论
编辑- 人类不是从猴子或任何当代猿类物种演化而来的[245],而是属于与旧世界猴有灵长目共同祖先的“远房表亲”,与人类关系最近的类人猿物种是黑猩猩属的黑猩猩和倭黑猩猩[246][247],与人类的最近共同祖先生活在5百万到8百万年前[248]。
- 物种演化不是从低级生命体到高级生命体的进步,也并不一定会导致生命体复杂程度的提高。一个种群可能朝着更简单、基因组更小的方向演化,但“退化”是一个误称[249][250]。实际上“进化”和“退化”都是不准确的说法,应该采取中性说法“演化”,而演化方向取决于物种在当时面对的自然选择。
- 并非所有的恐龙都在白垩纪-古近纪灭绝事件(俗称的“恐龙大灭绝”)中灭绝了。鸟的祖先在侏罗纪晚期从兽脚亚目的小型有羽毛恐龙演化而来。大多数恐龙的确在白垩纪晚期灭绝了,但鸟类作为恐龙的一支后裔幸存了下来[251]。
- 哺乳动物并非从任何现代爬行动物演化而来,而是哺乳动物和爬行动物拥有远在古生代的共同祖先。羊膜动物在石炭纪首次出现之后,很快就分成了两个演化分支——蜥形纲和合弓纲[252],分离时间在约3.2亿年前石炭纪晚期的宾夕法尼亚世。蜥形纲最终演化成爬行动物、恐龙和鸟类;哺乳动物则是合弓纲兽孔目犬齿兽亚目在侏罗纪早期分出的一科,也是整个合弓纲唯一幸存至今的一支后裔[253]。
- 现代中国人并非由北京猿人演化而来。根据现代分子生物学的研究,包括现代中国人在内的现代东亚人和世界上现存的其他人类一样,都属于智人(Homo sapiens)这一物种,而北京猿人属于直立人(Homo erectus)这一物种下的亚种(H. e. pekinensis)。现代东亚人的祖先大约在距今4~6万年前的更新世晚期到达今天的中国南部,并取代了这里的非智人的人类物种,成为了现代中国人的直系祖先。北京猿人生活在距今70万年前,而解剖学意义上的现代人要到距今20万年前才会出现在非洲境内。因此北京猿人不太可能是现代中国人的祖先[254]。
人类生理学
编辑- 舌头的味觉图是错误的。舌头所有部位都能感应所有味道[255]。
- 基本味觉不是四种,而是五种,除了酸、甜、苦、咸外,还有鲜[256]。辣不是味觉,而是痛觉。
- 体能锻炼引起的肌肉酸痛不是乳酸堆积造成的[257]。在运动时和运动后肌肉乳酸浓度与肌肉酸痛没有相关性[258]。通常认为锻炼引起的肌肉酸痛来源于因为不习惯或剧烈运动引起的微创伤[259]。
- 旁观者通常不容易察觉到溺水[260]。在大多数情况下,本能性溺水反应使溺水者无法挥舞或大喊[260],因此挥舞和大喊不是判断溺水的可靠迹象[261]。
- 不存在判断一名女性是否为处女的生理测试,处女膜的状况不能说明一个人的性经历[262][263]。出血与第一次阴道性交并不直接相关,也不提供任何有关性经验的信息[262][263]。贞操测试没有科学依据[264]。
- 目前为止还没有证据证明G点是存在的,普遍共识是所谓的G点并不存在[265][266][267][268]。
- 人并不是只使用大脑的百分之十。虽然在一个特定的时间大脑中只有少数神经元主动激发,但不活跃的神经元也很重要[269][270]。这一误解往往归因于威廉·詹姆士,但他的说法只是隐喻[271]。
- 皮肤泡水起皱不是因为皮肤吸水[272],而是由自主神经系统在水分的刺激下引发局部性血管收缩,使皮下组织收缩起皱[273][274]。
- 饮食对身体排毒几乎没有影响,服用某些食物来排毒没有科学依据[275]。一些科学家认为这样的饮食方案是浪费时间和金钱[276]。尽管如此,某些特定的饮食能够排出身体无法排出的毒素这种观点依然十分普遍[277][278][279][280]。毒素的排出是通过肝脏和肾脏进行的[275]。
- 一天八杯水、一天2到3升水的说法都是不准确的[281]。每天人体需水量取决于许多因素:体重、饮食、活动强度、衣着多少、环境的温度和湿度等。水并不都是以纯水的形式摄入,也可以通过食物和饮料补充[281]。
化学和材料科学
编辑- 玻璃在室温下并不会像高黏度液体一样流动[282]。玻璃和液体具有一些相似的分子特性,但玻璃在室温下是固体,只有在几百度以上的高温下才会开始流动[283][284]。厚底薄顶的老玻璃是来自其生产过程造成,而不是慢慢流动的结果[283][284]。某些类似甚至更老的玻璃物品中不一定会观察到这种扭曲现象。 [283][284][285]
- 大多数钻石不是由高度压缩的煤炭形成的。超过99%曾经被采矿的钻石形成于地表下约{{convert|140|km|||abbr=|sp=us}}处极端高温高压的条件下。煤炭是由史前植物埋藏于地表附近形成的,不太可能透过普通的地质活动移动到地表{{Convert|3.2|km||abbr=|sp=us}}以下。大多数经过定年的钻石都确定比第一批陆地植物还要古老,也就是说钻石比煤炭还要古老许多[286]。
- 钻石是摩氏硬度中已知最硬的材料,但并非无比坚硬,会受到磨损和刮伤。钻石可以被其他钻石刮伤[287],甚至被硬度远低于它的材料(如黑胶唱片)磨损[288]。
- “锡箔”和“锡罐头”都已不使用锡作为主要材料。自20世纪以来铝箔已经全面取代锡箔。而现今的罐头主要使用钢或铝作为主要金属[289]。
- 铅笔芯没有且不曾含有铅。会如此称呼是因为石墨曾被称为“黑铅”[290]。
电脑与网际网路
编辑- macOS和Linux操作系统不免疫于特洛伊木马或计算机病毒等恶意软件[291]。针对这些系统的专用恶意软件确实存在。会有这样的观念是因为绝大多数病毒是针对Microsoft Windows开发导致其无法感染上述系统[292][293][294][295]。
- 深网并没有充满色情、非法毒品贸易网站和被盗银行资讯。这些资讯主要存在于深网中的一小部分,也就是所谓的“暗网”。大部分的深网包含学术图书馆藏、资料库和所有未能被标准搜寻引擎索引的资讯[296][297][298][299]。
- 无痕浏览(例如Chrome的“私密浏览”)并不能保护使用者免受网站、雇主、政府或互联网服务供应商(ISP)的追踪。这些实体仍然可以使用IP地址和使用者帐户等资讯来识别使用者[300][301]。无痕浏览也不能提供额外的防毒或防恶意软体保护。 [302]
- 将进水的手机放进米中并无法有效“修好”手机[303][304]。将其放在米中吸湿中确实比在空气中晾干有效,但常见的吸湿剂(例如硅胶或猫砂)效果会比米更好[305]。
环境科学
编辑- 当今的全球暖化是由人类活动驱动[308][309]。没有任何国家或权威科学机构反对气候变迁,且这个共识已经持续了几十年[310]。全球暖化主要是由于燃烧化石燃料和森林砍伐等人类活动增加了大气中温室气体(如二氧化碳和甲烷)的浓度,进而造成次级回馈机制(例如极地冰川融化增加地球吸收阳光的能力)并加速气候变化[311]。
- 全球暖化并不是由于臭氧层空洞造成的。臭氧层的破坏是由于氯氟烃(CFCs)[312]被释放到大气层中造成[313],氯氟烃同时也是强效的温室气体并会对全球气候变化产生影响,但臭氧层空洞与全球暖化是两个不同的议题[314][315]。
- 发电厂等设施中的冷却塔不会排放烟雾或有害气体,而是排放水蒸气,不会对气候变化造成影响[316][317]。
- 闪电经常会在击中同一个地方两次。在雷雨中,闪电有较高机率击中较突出或具有导电性的物体及地点。例如闪电平均每年会击中纽约市的帝国大厦23次[318][319][320][321]。
- 黄石火山并不会在短期内会发生超级火山喷发[322]。
- 地球内部并非由熔岩构成。这可能来自对地幔对流一词的误解,错误地假设只有液体和气体才能对流。实际上,具有较大瑞利数的固体物质在足够的时间内也可以对流,地幔中巨大热梯度所引起的对流即是如此[323][324]。地幔中的确有一些小熔岩囊,但这些只占地幔体积的一小部分[325];地球的外核也确实是液态,但是它是由液态金属而非岩石构成[326]。
- 亚马逊雨林并没有提供地球20%的氧气。这是对2010年一项研究的误解,该研究发现,大约有34%的陆地植物光合作用发生在热带雨林中(故亚马逊雨林大约占其中一半)。由于生物的呼吸作用,所有生态系统(包括亚马逊雨林)的净氧输出大约为零。大气中目前存在的氧气是在数十亿年的时间里累积起来的[327]。
地理
编辑{{See also|麦卡托投影法#错觉}}
- 好望角不是非洲的最南端。事实上非洲的最南端是位于好望角东南方约{{convert|150|km|-1}}处的厄加勒斯角[328]。
- 河流并不主要由北往南流。河流会沿着山坡下坡流动,且常在河道上会改变方向[329][330]。事实上许多重要的河流皆由南流向北方,包括尼罗河、叶尼塞河、鄂毕河、莱茵河、勒拿河和奥里诺科河[331][332]。
发明
编辑- 詹姆斯·瓦特并非蒸汽机的发明者[333],他对蒸汽机动力的想法也不是受到蒸汽推动烧水壶盖而启发[334]。瓦特改良了18世纪60和70年代已经在商业上取得成功的纽可门蒸汽机,对其做出了一些影响其发展的关键性改进,如加装外部冷凝器以增加效率,并后来研发出将往复运动转化为圆周运动的机构。他的新蒸汽机因此而声名大噪[335]。
- 断头台在西方语言中以法国医生约瑟夫-伊尼亚斯·吉约丹的姓氏命名为吉约蒂纳(Guillotine),但他并非该装置的发明者,也没有被该装置处决。吉约丹医生于1814年在自己的床上安详离世[336]。
- 爱迪生并非发明灯泡的人[337]。不过他在1880年研发出了第一款实用的灯泡(使用碳化竹丝为灯丝),比约瑟夫·斯万稍早一些。斯旺之后于1881年发明了更加高效的灯泡(使用纤维素为灯丝)。
- 亨利·福特既非汽车也非装配线的发明者。福特透过自己的工程技术及资助员工显著改进装配线制造过程。他也是福特T型车的主要推手,该车被认为是第一款大众负担得起的汽车[338]。 卡尔·本茨(梅赛德斯-宾士联合创始人)才是现代汽车的发明者[339],而装配线在历史上一直存在。
数学
编辑{{See also|无效证明}}
- 希腊哲学家毕达哥拉斯并不是第一个发现勾股定理的人,早于他之前几个世纪前的巴比伦人和印度人就已经知道并使用它了{{sfn|Burkert|1972|pages=429, 462}}[342]{{sfn|Kahn|2001|page=32}}[343]。毕达哥拉斯可能是第一个向希腊人介绍这个定理的人{{sfn|Burkert|1972|page=429}}{{sfn|Kahn|2001|page=32}},而勾股定理直到达哥拉斯逝世两百年后才于欧几里得的《几何原本》中被证明。
- 没有证据表明古希腊人设计帕特农神庙时有意使其符合黄金比例[344]。帕特农神庙于公元前438年建成,比欧几里得首次记录黄金比例的时间早了一个多世纪。同样,达文西的《维特鲁威人》中也没有提到黄金比例,但有描述许多其他比例[345]。
- 循环小数“0.999…”所表示的数与“1”相同。尽管看起来它比1小,但0.999…和0.333…一样,都是对相应数量的等价符号。例如,0.333…是表示{{frac|1|3}}的等价符号[346]。
- P值不是虚无假说为真或对立假说为假的概率,而是在虚无假说为真的前提下,获得“至少与{{link-en|实现 (概率论)|Realization (probability)|实际观察结果}}一样极端的结果”之概率。这可以表明结果与虚无假说所假设的特定统计模型之不相容性[347]。这类误解导致P值在教育和研究中被普遍误用[347][348]。
- 如果一枚公正的硬币抛掷五次并且每次都出现正面,第六次抛掷并不会更有可能出现反面。换句话说,在经历了一连串低机率发生的独立随机事件后,下一个事件的机率不会受到前面事件影响。 人们常常感觉到一直未出现的结果会更有可能发生。这种思考可能归因于误解“赌博”或是“机会”本身是公平的,会在出现连续事件后自我修正[349]。

Pullum's explanation {{Wayback|url=http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/000405.html |date=20200810002544 }} in Language Log: The list of snow-referring roots to stick [suffixes] on isn't that long [in the Eskimoan language group]: qani- for a snowflake, apu- for snow considered as stuff lying on the ground and covering things up, a root meaning "slush", a root meaning "blizzard", a root meaning "drift", and a few others – very roughly the same number of roots as in English. Nonetheless, the number of distinct words you can derive from them is not 50, or 150, or 1500, or a million, but simply unbounded. Only stamina sets a limit.
- ^ The seven most common English words for snow are snow, hail, sleet, ice, icicle, slush, and snowflake. English also has the related word glacier and the four common skiing terms pack, powder, crud, and crust, so one can say that at least 12 distinct words for snow exist in English.

In addition to its specific contemporary use the gesture comes to express, in a fashion that appears timeless and even mystical, an appeal to a higher being and to a heroic ancient past that had served as a model for most of Western civilization for centuries, although often in ways not supported by historical fact. David's Oath of the Horatii provided the starting point for an arresting gesture that progressed from oath-taking to what will become known as the Roman salute.

Numerous studies have found that this simply doesn’t work.{{pb}}One of the possible reasons that this myth became popular could be due to the fact that urine contains compounds like ammonia and urea. If used alone, these substances may be helpful for some stings. But your pee contains a lot of water. And all that water dilutes the ammonia and urea too much to be effective.{{pb}}What’s more, the sodium in your urine, together with the velocity of the urine stream could move the stingers around in the injury. This could trigger the stingers to release even more venom.|access-date=2023-04-17|archive-date=2023-01-31|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230131142258/https://www.healthline.com/health/does-peeing-on-a-jellyfish-sting-help#does-it-work%7Cdead-url=no}}

b. "Two other beliefs about [the golden ratio] are often mentioned in magazines and books: that the ancient Greeks believed it was the proportion of the rectangle the eye finds most pleasing and that they accordingly incorporated the rectangle in many of their buildings, including the famous Parthenon. These two equally persistent beliefs are likewise assuredly false and, in any case, are completely without any evidence." {{cite book|last=Devlin|first=Keith|title=The Unfinished Game: Pascal, Fermat, and the Seventeenth-Century Letter that Made the World Modern|date=2008|publisher=Basic Books|page=35}} - ^

Almost as compulsive is the urge to add a second factoid along the lines of 'Leonardo Da Vinci believed that the human form displays the golden ratio.' There is not a shred of evidence to back up either claim, and every reason to assume they are both false. Yet both claims, along with various others in a similar vein, live on.}} - ^
