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. "
【B1】
选项
A、forced
B、taught
C、deployed
D、observed
答案
B
解析
动词辨析题。根据上下文语义,本句开始讲述实验的过程。实验用的老鼠本来对两种声音都没有任何特别的印象,而研究者通过电击的方式让这些老鼠对两种声音产生恐惧感。动词teach除了有“教授”之意以外,还有“使……明白或能够做某件事”的意思,符合原文,故[B]taught为答案。首先排除[A]forced“强制”和[C]deployed“部署”,心理暗示和记忆的产生不能依靠外力强制和第三者的主观意愿。而实验不可能在采取一定的干预手段前就开始观察,故[D]observed“观察”也不符合语义,也应排除。
