Researchers led by New York University neuroscientist Joseph LeDoux recently claimed to be the first scientists to erase a single memory. Working with rats, LeDoux’s team first【B1】______the animals to fear both a beep and a siren【B2】______giving them an electric shock every time either of the tones sounded. Then LeDoux gave half the rats the drug U0126, which is known to【B3】______with memory storage, and replayed the beep【B4】______electric shocks.
A day later, when LeDoux【B5】______back both tones to the rats, the animals that hadn’t been given the drug were still fearful of both sounds.【B6】______the rats that had been given the memory-blocking drug weren’t【B7】______of the beep, which they had last heard while【B8】______the influence of U0126.
【B9】______how U0126 exerts its amnesiac effect is【B10】______, but it may block the synthesis of proteins that help strengthen【B11】______between neurons and establish memories. The opportunity for erasure【B12】______during the act of retrieving a memory, because that’s【B13】______the memory is being updated and【B14】______again for long-term storage. " Only those memories that are activated are【B15】______," LeDoux says.
Drugs like U0126 may someday【B16】______sufferers of traumatic memories. A small group of human studies have been done on a drug called propranolol, which blocks the action of stress neurotransmitters that help【B17】______memories in the brain, but LeDoux’s work shows the【B18】______for greater precision. " You might be able to【B19】______the traumatic impact of memories in people," says LeDoux. " The good news is you wouldn’t be【B20】______off their memory bank. "
【B20】
选项
A、sealing
B、wiping
C、trailing
D、crossing
答案
B
解析
动词词组辨析题。根据文章开篇的介绍,本文所介绍的新型药物可以消除单个记忆,可见这种药物不会影响或者清除患者的整个记忆库。因此,所需动词词组的含义应为“消除”或者“影响”。动词词组wipe off,表示“擦除,彻底消除”,符合题意,故[B]wiping为答案。首先排除[A]sealing,词组seal off意为“封锁,禁止人内”。[C]trailing不能与副词off构成词组,故也应排除。而[D]crossing与副词off构成的词组则表示“以划线的方式表示去除”,也不符合题意,应排除。
