答案
**The Queueing Phenomenon**
Last year, a famous bubble tea brand opened its first store in my city, and the line stretched for over two blocks! My cousin waited in that queue for more than two hours just to try their “limited-edition” drink. She told me that even though she was tired and thirsty, she didn’t want to leave because everyone around her was so excited—and she didn’t want to “miss out.” Similar scenes happen all the time: when a new museum exhibit opens, or a street food stall goes viral on social media, people immediately form long lines, sometimes without even knowing what they’re lining up for.
To me, this “queueing phenomenon” reflects both human curiosity and the power of social influence. People often follow the crowd, assuming that if many others are doing something, it must be worth doing. While it’s natural to be curious, I believe we should think critically before joining the rush. Sometimes, the real joy isn’t in getting the trendy item, but in making thoughtful choices and avoiding unnecessary crowds. After all, true satisfaction comes not from following the herd, but from knowing what truly matters to you. 報錯 ChatGPTDeepSeek
