问题            A long misunderstood phenomenon in cognitive psychology is synesthesia,
       the anomalous blending of the senses and synesthetes-people with synesthesia,
       have the exceptional power to hear colors, feel sounds and taste shapes.
Line    Synesthesia differs from drug-induced hallucinations in that synesthetic
(5)      sensations are highly consistent for particular synesthetes. Landmark new
       research has documented that synesthetic colors are perceived in much the same
       way that nonsynesthetic individuals perceive real colors and synesthetic color
       differences can facilitate performance on tasks in which real color differences
       make easy performance for non-synesthetes and can impair performance on
(10)     tasks in which real color differences diminish quality of performance for
       nonsynesthetes, but the neural mechanism by which synesthetic colors are
       automatically bound to alphanumeric characters remains a mystery. One
       possibility is that synesthesia might stem from some kind of deviant cross-wiring
       between digit and letter processing areas and color processing areas in
(15)     neighboring, unlocated regions of the human brain.
According to the passage, which of the following cases of perception would a synesthete be most unlikely to have?
选项 A、The musical note F, when heard by the synesthete, appears as a reddish shade of rust.
B、The synesthete occasionally tastes the numeral "3" as sour, and occasionally as sweet.
C、The word "mellifluous", when heard by the synesthete, triggers neither auditory or chromatic associations.
D、The number 3, when the synesthete imagines it, sounds like a bell in his imagination.
E、Without exception, the synesthete experiences an acidic taste when he sees a circle.
答案C
