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.

"【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.

选项 A、disturbing
B、lowering
C、updating
D、promoting
答案 D
解析 本题要求填入一个现在分词，与空格后的memory stabilization(记忆的稳固)构成逻辑上的动宾关系。本句相关部分的意思是：清醒时刻所获得的信息能够在睡眠期间被重新激活，——记忆的稳固。整个句子其实就是对短文开头指出的“睡眠帮助我们记忆所学的东西"的具体说明，因此disturbing(干扰)和lowering(降低)与上文矛盾，可首先排除。updating意为“升级”，从语意上看，不能与之后的宾语搭配。D项promoting意为“促进”，符合语意的要求，是正确答案。
