Adaptive Memory

Human memory has long been considered a static repository for information, but recent research suggests that it is far more dynamic. Adaptive memory refers to the idea that our minds prioritize and are better at remembering information relevant to survival. For example, people are often better at recalling details about foods, animals, and places that might pose threats or offer benefits.

Researchers have conducted experiments in which participants remembered words related to survival better than other types of words. One experiment presented participants with lists of words categorized by themes such as survival, hunting, and foraging. They recalled more words from lists linked to survival scenarios, suggesting that our brains prioritize survival-related information.

Research shows that memory systems also seem designed to discard irrelevant details while retaining useful ones. [■] This adaptability may have been crucial for early humans who needed to remember locations with abundant rather than scarce food supplies or to avoid areas where dangerous predators had been encountered. [■] Another study found that participants who imagined themselves in ancient survival scenarios had better recall of word lists than those who were asked to imagine themselves in non-threatening scenarios. [■] This indicates that the context in which information is presented can significantly impact how well it is remembered. [■]

5.There are four locations [■] in the passage that indicate where the following sentence could be added. Where would the sentence best fit? Select a location [■] to add the sentence to the passage.

题干题型分析：句子插入题，考查文本逻辑衔接能力，待插入句为 “These findings all demonstrate that human memory is not a simple storage device but an adaptive tool shaped by evolutionary pressures”。定位理解：待插入句中 “These findings” 是指代前文所有实验和研究结论的总结性表达，应放在全文末尾（位置 D）。前文先提出观点、再用两个实验佐证，最后用这句话总结升华，逻辑链为「提出观点→实验论证→总结结论」。选项辨析：插入位置 A-C：均位于第三段中间，“These findings” 无法完整指代前文所有研究结果，逻辑断裂；插入位置 D：放在全文最后，承接所有研究结论，总结适应性记忆的本质，逻辑通顺，正确。
