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.
A)words B)narratives C)spent D)pattern
E)forgotten F)largely G)recall H)explanation
I)cases J)rarely K)taken L)factor
M)habitual N)permanent O)verbal
【C9】

选项

答案O

解析 空格处的形容词修饰reinforcement(强化),而空格前面的this指的是上一句谈到的儿童讲述他们的经历和听别人讲述他们的经历这一情况。verbal意为“语言的”,不管是听还是讲,都是用语言的方式进行的,故选O。
