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. "
【B3】
选项
A、interfere
B、prevent
C、disturb
D、obstruct
答案
A
解析
动词辨析题。本题所在句介绍实验的第二个步骤。实验者将对两种声音都恐惧的老鼠分组,一半服用药物,而本空所在的定语从句则用于说明这种药物的作用。可根据第二段第二句中的“the memory-blocking drug”,可知该药物是干扰阻隔记忆的,再根据其后的介词with可确定[A]interfere“干扰”为答案。首先排除[B]prevent“防止”,意为不让某事发生,而不是对已有的事实进行干扰,故不符合题意。[C]disturb“干扰”和[D]obstruct“阻隔”虽然在意义上接近正确答案,但两者都是及物动词,不能与后文的with搭配,故也应排除。
