Answer;
-Our brains fill in gaps in our perception.
-If its been a long time since an event occurred, we might imagine things that did not happen.
Explanation;
-One way that our brain may alter sensory information is by filling in information that is not really there. For example a word in a sentence could have a missing word but we probably assume that word is there and keep reading the sentence.
-Another way is applying already known stuff into new situations. For example we have learned that if a dessert is pink, then it is strawberry flavored. If we saw a bowl of vanilla ice cream with pink food coloring, we may assume it's strawberry ice cream.
