It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions, the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.
Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It includes not only "remembering" things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up an eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.
Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computer, for example, contains devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 1,000 ,000"words" ready for instant use. An average U. S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, his is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.
The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person’s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words.
What will be accounted for after the last paragraph of this passage? ( )
选项
A、Life will also be happy even if there is no memory for people.
B、Both human beings and animals have the same memory.
C、People’s memory is inferior to computers.
D、The way that people use words and combination of words to form memory.
答案
D
解析
推理题。“文章最后一段之后将会继续叙述什么?”从最后一段最后一句话A large part of a person’s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words可知,若作者继续讨论的话,那么话题也将围绕这句话进行,故答案便显而易见了。
