5. 注解：本单元的语法知识是同位语从句。

同位语从句指的是在复合句中充当同位语的从句，对其前面的抽象名词进行解释说明。

这些抽象名词通常是news，idea，fact，promise，question，doubt，thought，hope，message，suggestion，words，possibility等。

同位语从句的引导词包括连词that/whether，连接代词what/who等，连接副词how/when/where等(注：if/which不能引导同位语从句)。

本单元主要学习由that引导的同位语从句。

that只起连接作用，无实义。

Translation
当我们将一个人视为其所属群体的特例时，我们在无意之中暴露了我们的刻板印象。

事实上，我们甚至加深了刻板印象，因为把不符合我们刻板印象的个人视为不同寻常，并没有使我们对其所属群体的看法发生变化。

我们所做的只是把这个“特例”从那个群体中剔除罢了。
