和大家讨论一道OG的阅读题

practice set 4 aggression 的第一题：

The biological approach.Numerous biological structures and chemicals appear to be involved in aggression. One is the hypothalamus, a region of the brain. In response to certain stimuli, many animals show instinctive aggressive reactions. The hypothalamus appears to be involved in this inborn pattern: electrical stimulation of part of the hypothalamus triggers stereotypical aggressive behaviors in many animals. In people, however, whose brains are more complex, other brain structures apparently moderate possible instincts.

according to paragraph 2, what evidence indicates that aggression in animals is related to the hypothalamus?

A. Some aggressive animal species have a highly developed hypothalamus.

B. Artificial stimulation of the hypothalamus results in aggression in animals.

C. Animals behaving aggressively show increased activity in the hypothalamus.

D. Animals who lack a hypothalamus display few aggressive tendence.

大家讨论下吧！～～

我刚刚理解错了.同意5楼的. inborn-Artificial

这道题我个人认为选B，因为文中没有任何提示说increase activity。 有可能是decrease activity也不一定。所以我觉得不应该选C。

 The hypothalamus appears to be involved in this inborn pattern

原文里有inborn这个词,B选项里有Artificial

这是我排除B选项的理由

严重同意！！！！！！
    

Artificial 是对应electrical的，即：
    

electrical stimulation of part of the hypothalamus triggers stereotypical aggressive behaviors in many animals.
        

Artificial stimulation of part of the hypothalamus triggers stereotypical aggressive behaviors in many animals.
        

看来OG的某些题目也同样具有四、六、研题目的垃圾风范。做这种题目简直浪费青春！

同意楼上的

同意6楼，artificial 修饰的是stimulation 啊，是不是说丘脑被电流刺激后会有aggressive reaction,这种reaction 对于丘脑来说是与生俱来的反应。感觉C文中没有提及阿。还有OG听力有一道题说一个学生赵教授看她的研究生入学申请那个，有一道题也觉得有问题，就是运动员背景那个，95%的可能是哪道题答案有误。
