When lab rats sleep, their brains revisit the maze they navigated during the day, according to a new study (1)_____ yesterday, offering some of the strongest evidence (2)_____ that animals do indeed dream. Experiments with sleeping rats found that cells in the animals’ brains fire in a distinctive pattern (3)_____ the pattern that occurs when they are (4)_____ and trying to learn their way around a maze.
Based on the results, the researchers concluded the rats were dreaming about the maze, (5)_____ reviewing what they had learned while awake to (6)_____ the memories.
Researchers have long known that animals go (7)_____ the same types of sleep phases that people do, including rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep, which is when people dream. But (8)_____ the occasional twitching, growling or barking that any dog owner has (9)_____ in his or her sleeping pet, there’s been (10)_____ direct evidence that animals (11)_____. If animals dream, it suggests they might have more (12)_____ mental functions than had been (13)_____.
"We have as humans felt that this (14)_____ of memory—our ability to recall sequences of experiences—was something that was (15)_____ human", Wilson said. "The fact that we see this in rodents (16)_____ suggest they can evaluate their experience in a significant way. Animals may be (17)_____ about more than we had previously considered".
The findings also provide new support for a leading theory for (18)_____ humans sleep—to solidify new learning. "People are now really nailing down the fact that the brain during sleep is (19)_____ its activity at least for the time immediately before sleep and almost undoubtedly using that review to (20)_____ or integrate those memories into more usable forms", said an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
选项
A、in circles
B、in accord
C、in case
D、in essence
答案
D
解析
不难判断空白后的"reviewing what they had learned..."是对空白前的"dreaming about the maze"的进一步解释,故in essence(实质上)正确。句意:根据这些研究成果,研究人员断定,老鼠梦见迷宫,实质上是回顾它们醒着的时候走迷宫的过程以增强记忆。这个分词短语进一步说明了研究人员的看法。in circles=in a circle在原地兜圈子,毫无进展;in accord与with连用,意为"与…一致";in case万一。这三项用在这里不合逻辑,无法表达出文中的解释作用。
