标题: og-118 [打印本页]

118 According to a review of 61 studies of patients suffering from severely debilitating depression,a large majority of the patients reported that missing a night's sleep immediately lifted their depression.Yet sleep-deprivation is not used treat depression even though the conventioal treatments,which use drugs and electric shocks,often have serious side effects.
此题如何理解,missing a night's sleep immediately lifted their depression说明缺少睡眠会加重depression,那当然不应去用sleep-deprivation去治疗depression了,这有什么矛盾的。

我的理解正好相反lifted their depression应该是指会减少depression 吧,把depression提起来不就是减少吗?

i agree with LZ, lifted their depression means release their suffers.

《The Mwrriam Webster Dictionary》解释Lift:

(1) raise,elevate

(2) to put an end to

(3) to pay off

看来本题中的Lift作put an end解。其它解释放入题中不通。另外根据字典,raise也有end的意思。
