5. Among all the opinions about Déjà vu, which one
interests you most Why
The opinion that déjà vu might show we have a hidden power to see the future interests me most. Because If we have hidden power in our body, and we can foresee the near future, we can avoid something unpleasant or regretful to happen.
I’m interested in the opinion that there could be a link between déjà vu and parallel universes.
Because l think our conscious(意识)or subconscious
(潜意识)may intersect with(相交)ourselves in a parallel universe, which makes us feel a certain familiarity. (答案不唯一)
Have you ever done something that felt familiar, even
though you knew you hadn’t This feeling is known as déjà vu, a French term meaning “ already seen”.
