问题     As What’ s your earliest childhood memory? Adults seldom【C1】______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. Adults think in words, and their life memories are like stories or【C3】______— one event follows another—as in a novel or film. But when they search through their mental files for early childhood memories to add to this verbal life story, they don’t find any that fits the【C4】______. 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【C5】______for childhood amnesia. According to Dr. Simms, children need to learn to use someone else’ s spoken description of their personal experiences in order to turn their own short-term, quickly【C6】______impressions of them into long-term memories. In other【C7】______, children have to talk about their experiences and hear others talk about theirs—Mother talking about the afternoon【C8】______looking for seashells at the beach or Dad asking them about their day at Ocean park. Without this【C9】______reinforcement, says Dr. Simms, children cannot form【C10】______memories of their personal experiences.

选项

答案C

解析 从句子结构和所给的选项可知,空格处的词是过去分词作后置定语,修饰时间名词afternoon,而且其相应的动词能用在“动词+时间+doing something”这一结构中。spent常用作spend time/money(in)doing sth.或spend time/money on sth.,故选C。
