单选题{{B}}Passage Four{{/B}}
We sometimes think humans are uniquely
vulnerable to anxiety, but stress seems to affect the immune defenses of lower
animals too. In one experiment, for example, behavioral immunologist (免疫学家) Mark
Laudenslager, at the University of Denver, gave mild electric shocks to 24 rats.
Half the animals could switch off the current by turning a wheel in their
enclosure, while the other half could not. The rats in the two groups were
paired so that each time one rat turned the wheel it protected both itself and
its helpless Partner from the shock. Laudenslager found that the immune response
was depressed below normal in the helpless rats but not in those that could turn
off the electricity. What he has demonstrated, he believes, is that lack of
control over an event, not the experience itself, is what wakens the immune
system. Other researchers agree. Jay Weiss, a psychologist at
Duke University School of Medicine, has shown that animals who are allowed to
control unpleasant stimuli don't develop sleep disturbances or changes in brain
chemistry typical of stressed rats. But if the animals are conditioned to
confront with situations they have no control over, they later behave passively
even when faced with experiences they can control. Such findings reinforce
psychologists' suspicions that the experience or perception of helplessness, is
one of the most harmful factors in depression. One of the most
startling examples of how the mind can alter the immune response was discovered
by chance. In 1975 psychologist Robert Ader at the University of Rochester
School of Medicine conditioned (便形成条件反射) mice to avoid saccharin (糖精) by
simultaneously feeding them the sweetener and injecting them with a drug that
while suppressing their immune systems caused stomach upsets. Associating the
saccharin with the stomach pains, the mice quickly learned to avoid the
sweetener. In order to extinguish this dislike for the sweetener, Ader reexposed
the animals to saccharin, this time without the drug, and was astonished to find
that those mice that had received the highest amounts of sweetener during their
earlier conditioning died. He could only speculate that he had so successfully
conditioned the rats that saccharin alone now served to weaken their immune
systems enough to kill them.
