标题: OG10 118。这题实在看不明白了

118. According to a review of 61 studies of patients suffering from severely debilitating depression, a large majority of the patients reported that missing a night’s sleep immediately lifted their depression. Yet sleep-deprivation is not used to treat depression even though the conventional treatments, which use drugs and electric shocks, often have serious side effects.

Which of the following, if true, best explains the fact that sleep-deprivation is not used as a treatment for depression?

(A) For a small percentage of depressed patients, missing a night’s sleep induces a temporary sense of euphoria.

(B) Keeping depressed patients awake is more difficult than keeping awake people who are not depressed.

(C) Prolonged loss of sleep can lead to temporary impairment of judgment comparable to that induced by consuming several ounces of alcohol.

(D) The dramatic shifts in mood connected with sleep and wakefulness have not been traced to particular changes in brain chemistry. E

(E) Depression returns in full force as soon as the patient sleeps for even a few minutes.

麻烦问下这里sleep-deprivation是什么意思呢，究竟是睡眠还是睡眠剥夺，如果是睡眠剥夺，那怎么可能还选E呢？
希望大家提出自己的看法。

我觉得sleep-deprivation就只有睡眠剥夺一个意思吧？。。

段落是说缺觉能抑制depression，少睡一晚上的话depression会减轻。
missing a night’s sleep immediately lifted their depression

e说的哪怕睡几分钟，depression也会回到原来状态，人不可能一直不睡觉，所以睡眠剥夺这个方法不能当做treatment。。

个人观点。。楼下继续。。

看来我在这里理解错误了：missing a night’s sleep immediately lifted their depression
这里的意思是不睡觉能够降低抑郁是吧
可是lift不是提升的意思吗？为什么楼上同学就知道是降低呢？

lift不止有提升的意思。。有些时候也有类似于remove或者stop的意思。。
