It is easy to overlook something new and crucial in what Wilson is saying.Not that we invariably lose interest in bright and shiny things over time--this is a long-know trait--but that we're generally unable to recognize that we adapt to new circumstances and therefore fail to incorporate this fat into our decisions.So,yes,we will adapt the BMW and the plasma TV,since we adapt to virtually everything.But Wilson and Gilbert and others have shown that we seem unable to predict that we will adapt.Thus,when we find the pleasure derived from a thing diminishing,we move on to the next thing or event and almost certainly make another error of prediction,and then another,ad infinitum.
As Gilbert points out,this glitch is also significant when it comes to negative events like losing a job or the death of someone we love,in response to which we project a permanently inconsolable future.

人们很容易便忽略了威尔逊言论中的新且关键的内容.这并非因为我们对新奇事物逐渐失去了兴趣,(当然,人类长期都是如此),而是我们无法认识到自身已适应了新环境,也就无法将此纳入我们的决策之中.

由于几乎接受了所有事物,我们将会适应有着宝马轿车、等离子电视的生活.但威尔逊和吉尔伯特等人已指出,我们难以预知我们会适应这一切的事实.因此,当我们从正消失的事物中获得乐趣时,我们会转向下一事物或事件,然后犯下一个又一个的预测错误直至永远.
As Gilbert points out,this glitch is also significant when it comes to negative events like losing a job or the death of someone we love,in response to which we project a permanently inconsolable future.
正如吉尔伯特所说,当发生一些负面事件(如失业或至亲离世)时,人的这个毛病也会变得很明显,因为这些事件会让我们觉得未来惨淡.
