Use of English
What's your earliest childhood memory? Can you remember learning to walk? Or talk? The
first time you 1 thunder or watched a television program? Adults seldom 2 events much earlier than the year or so before entering school, just as children younger than three or four 3 retain any specific, personal experiences. A variety of explanations have been 4 by psychologists for this "childhood amnesia" (儿童失忆症). One argues that the hippocampus, the region of the brain which is responsible for forming memories, does not mature 5 about the age of two. But the most popular theory 6 that, since adults do not think like children, they cannot 7 childhood memories. Adults think in words, and their life memories are like stories or 8 —one event follows 9 as in a novel or film. But when they search through their mental 10 for early childhood memories to add to this verbal life story, they don't find any that fits the 11 . It's like trying to find a Chinese word in an English dictionary.
Now psychologist Annette Simms of the New York State University offers a new 12 for childhood amnesia. She argues that there simply 13 any early childhood memories to recall. According to Dr. Simms, children need to learn to use 14 spoken description of their personal experiences in order to turn their own short-term, quickly 15 impressions of them into long-term memories. In other 16 , children have to talk about their experiences and hear others talk about 17 --Mother talking about the afternoon 18 looking for seashells at the beach or Dad asking them about their day at Ocean Park. Without this 19 reinforcement, says Dr. Simms, children cannot form 20 memories of their personal experiences.
