问题     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【C2】______    events much earlier than the year or so before entering school, just as children younger than three or four  【C3】______ retain any specific, personal experiences.  A variety of explanations have been【C4】______ by psychologists for this "Childhood amnesia" (儿童失忆症). One argues that the hippocampus, the region of the brain which is responsible for forming memories, does not mature【C5】______ about the age of two. But the most popular theory【C6】______ that, since adults do not think like children, they cannot【C7】______ childhood memories. Adults think in words, and their life memories are like stories or【C8】______ --one event follows【C9】______ as in a novel or film. But when they search through their mental【C10】______  for early childhood memories to add to this verbal life story, they don’t find anything. As fits the【C11】______ , it’s like trying to find a Chinese word in an English dictionary.
    Now psychologist Annette Simmons of the New York State University offers a new【C12】______ for childhood amnesia. She argues that there simply【C13】______ any early childhood memories to recall. According to Dr. Simmons, children need to learn to use【C14】______ spoken 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. Simmons, children cannot form【C20】______ memories of their personal experience.  
【C14】
选项 A、anyone else
B、someone else’s
C、someone else
D、anyone else’s
答案B
解析 本题考查一般词汇知识。本句句意为“儿童们需要学会用别人对自己经验的口头描述来把短期记忆转化成长期记忆”。B项someone else’s意为“别人的”，因此正确答案为B项。
