IV. COMPREHENSION READING
Read the following passage. For questions 51 - 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D)
to each question.
Human memory, formerly believed to be rather inefficient, is really more sophisticated than that
of a computer. Researchers approaching the problem from a variety of points of view have all concluded
that there is a great deal more stored in our minds than has been generally supposed. Dr. Wilder Penfield,
a Canadian neurosurgeon, proved that by stimulating their brains electrically, he could elicit the total
recall of specific events in his subjects’ lives. Even dreams and other minor events supposedly forgotten
for many years suddenly emerged in detail.
Although the physical basis for memory is not yet understood, one theory is that the fantastic
capacity for storage in the brain is the result of an almost unlimited combination of interconnections
between brain cells, stimulated by patterns of activity. Repeated references to the same information
support recall. Or, to say that another way, improved performance is the result of strengthening the
chemical bonds in the memory.
