Explanation
Answer: C - You hate it when your grandmother says that “glass is half”. This is an example of perceiving things in a different way.
Key Takeaway: The human mind perceives the same thing in a different way. For example, someone may consider a lineup of 12 people to be unbearable while another will find a line of 4 people unbearable. Perception and assessment of stimuli depend on the person’s circumstances. One person will assess their perception of a half-filled cup in a way that may be different than the next person.
