问题     U. S. researchers suggest sleeping can help us remember things we have just learnt. A team from Northwestern University【C1】______that a 90-minute nap(小睡)can help people learn a new skill. The【C2】______on their research is published in the June edition of the journal Nature. The scientists say: "Information acquired during waking can be reactivated(重新激活)during sleep,【C3】______memory stabilization. " Test volunteers practiced musical tunes before and after a short sleep.【C4】______the nap, the researchers played one of the tunes the volunteers had practiced. The team found that the participants made【C5】______errors when playing the tune that had been played while they slept.
    Study co-author Dr Pau J. Reuber points out the research might not work【C6】______learning a foreign language while you sleep. He said: "The critical【C7】______is that our research shows that memory is strengthened for something you’ve already learned. " He added: "Rather than learning something【C8】______in your sleep, we’re talking about enhancing an existing memory by reactivating information recently acquired. "【C9】______, Dr Reuber did say there were possibilities for language learners; "If you were learning【C10】______to speak in a foreign language during the day, for example, and then tried to reactivate those memories during sleep, perhaps you might enhance your learning," he said.
【C7】

选项 A、similarity
B、difference
C、viewpoint
D、response

答案B

解析 短文第一段中研究人员用测试表明志愿者重新演奏睡前练过、睡眠期间又听过的曲子时出错较少,本段第一句则指出这一研究也许对睡眠期间学外语不起作用。这说明两者是有区别的,因此本句指出的是这种区别(difference),而不是相似(simi—larity)也不是观点(viewpoint)或反应(response),空格中应填入的词为B项difference(区别,差异)。
