Most episodes of absent-mindedness—forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a room—are caused by a simple lack of attention, says Schacter. "You’re supposed to remember something, but you haven’t encoded it deeply. "
Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and don’t pay attention to what you did because you’re involved in a conversation, you’ll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your wardrobe. "Your memory itself isn’t failing you," says Schacter. "Rather, you didn’t give your memory system the information it needed. "
Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mindedness. "A man who can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago," says Zelinski, "may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox. " Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment, and memory relies on just that.
Visual cues can help prevent absent-mindedness, says Schacter. "But be sure the cue is clear and available," he cautions. If you want to remember to take a medication with lunch, put the pill bottle on the kitchen table—don’t leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket.
Another common episode of absent-mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why you’re there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. "Everyone does this from time to time," says Zelinski. The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room, and you’ll likely remember. [br] A note in the pocket can hardly serve as a reminder because______.
选项
A、it will easily get lost
B、it’s not clear enough for you to read
C、it’s out of your sight
D、it might get mixed up with other things
答案
C
解析
定位到文章第四段“don’t leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket”,意思是不要把药瓶留在药柜内,同时自己写张纸条揣进口袋。这句话是在否定“写纸条放进口袋”这种提醒方式,与题目所说致。这段中可供分析的地方共两处:处是句首“Visual cues can help prevent absent mindedness”,这是本段的总起句,是对段落核心意思的概括。需要注意的是,它提到了“视觉提示物”,也就是“看得见”的提示物。另处是“But be sure the cue is clear and available”,即提示物要清楚、易得。这两处所强调的共同点是提示物必须是举目所及、位于视线范围之内的。四个选项中与此最为接近的是C,故选C。
