If you're like most people, you've indulged in fake listening many times. You go to history class, sit in the third row, and look squarely at the instructor as she speaks. But your mind is far away,26inthe clouds of pleasant daydreams. Occasionally you come back to earth: The instructor writes an important term on the chalkboard, and you 27copy it in your notebook. Every once in a while the instructor makes a 28remark, causing others in the class to laugh. You smile politely, pretending that you've heard the remark and found it mildly humorous. You have a vague sense of 29that you aren't paying close attention, but you tell yourself that any material you miss can 30from a friend's notes. Besides, the instructor's talking about road 31in ancient Rome, and nothing could be more boring. So back you go into your private little world. Only later do you realize you've missed important information for a test.
