28、n, meaning they forget things like important appointments or where they left their keys. But it seems that these memories are not lost. They are still filed away in the brain somewhere; they just cant be easily accessed. Now, researchers at MIT have developed a means of getting back memories in mice

29、 suffering from Alzheimers. The method relies on a technique that uses light to control genetically modified neurons (轉(zhuǎn)基因神經(jīng)元). Currently it is too early to be used in human trials as it involves inserting light emitting (發(fā)光) equipment into the subjects brains, but the same principles still apply, th

30、e researchers said. “The important point is that this is evidence of concept. That is, even if a memory seems to be gone, it is still there. Its a matter of how to get it back,” said senior researcher Susumu Tonegawa. The team took two groups of mice, one genetically engineered to develop Alzheimers

31、 and one healthy. They then placed them into a room and gave them a mild electric shock. All of the mice showed fear when put back in an hour later. When placed in the room a third time several days later, the Alzheimers mice acted normally. They had forgotten the shock. The researchers were then ab

32、le to bring back the memory of the shock by activating (激活) the cells in which the memories were stored. Even when the mice were put into an unfamiliar room, they showed fear when the cells associated with the shock were activated. “Short-term memory seems to be normal, on the order of hours. But fo

33、r long-term memory, these early-Alzheimers mice seem to be damaged,” said lead researcher Dheeraj Roy. “Directly activating the cells that we believe are holding the memory helps them get it back. This suggests that it is indeed an access problem to the information, not that theyre unable to learn o

34、r store this memory.”1、What can we learn about the researchers at MIT?AThey are the pioneers of brain research.BThey have used the method in human trials.CThey can cure Alzheimers using the new method.DThey can get back memories in mice with Alzheimers.2、Why did the Alzheimers mice behave normally a

35、 third time?AThey failed to remember the electric shock.BThey were accustomed to the situation.CThey managed to overcome the fear.DThey activated the association.3、For long-term memory, the early Alzheimers mice _.Acan activate their blood cellsBcant learn new tricks wellCcan easily get back their m

38、ne has been doing it for most of his life. Born into a traditional Maasai family he quickly grew to understand the beauty and danger of wildlife.

40、tracking lions to meet them and to protect them. He leads a small group of wide-eyed tourists over the red sandy path, searching for the lion that has left upon it his prints.Each year, thousands of tourists crowd Kenyas national parks to try to have a look at thebig five; elephants, rhinoceros, leo

41、pards, buffaloes and lions. The international draw of these animals matters a lot because the nations economy is tied to the protection of its wildlife. If Kenyas wildlife disappears, so does its second-largest source of income.Wildlife protection efforts in Kenya meant marking off land exclusively(

42、專門地)for animals. But it also meant that the people who had originally lived in the area were forced to leave their land and into smaller surrounding areas. They are also finding it increasingly hard to keep a traditional Maasai lifestyle. But people are glad that it really makes a difference to wild
