What’s your earliest childhood memory? Can you remember learning to walk? Or talk? The first time you【C1】______thunder or watched a television program? Adults seldom recall events much earlier than the year or so before entering school, just as children younger than three or four【C2】______retain any specific, personal experiences.
A variety of explanations have been【C3】______by psychologists for this "childhood amnesia (童年失忆症)". One argues that the hippocampus, the region of the brain which is responsible for forming memories, does not mature【C4】______about the age of two. But the most popular theory【C5】______that, since adults do not think like children, they cannot【C6】______childhood memories. Adults think in words, and their life memories are like stories or【C7】______— one event follows【C8】______— as in a novel or film.【C9】______when they search through their mental【C10】______for early childhood memories to add to this verbal life story, they don’t find any that fits the【C11】______. It’s like trying to find a Chinese word in an English dictionary.
Now psychologist Annette Simms of the New York State University offers a new【C12】______for childhood amnesia. She argues that there simply aren’t any early childhood memories to【C13】______. According to Dr. Simms, children need to learn to use someone else’s【C14】______description of their personal experiences in order to turn their own short-term, quickly【C15】______impressions of them into long-term memories. In other【C16】______. children have to talk about their experiences and hear others talk about【C17】______— Mother talking about the afternoon【C18】______looking for seashells at the beach or Dad asking them about their day at Ocean Park. Without this【C19】______reinforcement, says Dr. Simms, children cannot form【C20】______memories of their personal experiences.
【C18】
选项
A、used
B、chosen
C、taken
D、spent
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。由选项可知,所填词为过去分词,修饰空前的名词,同时注意所填词后面接动名词looking for。四个选项中只有[D]spent的原形动词能后接动名词,其形式为spend…(in)doing sth.,此处spent的宾语为afternoon。本句意为“花了一下午的时间寻找海滩上的贝壳”。
