9. Astronauts who experience weightlessness frequently get motion sickness. The astronauts see their own motion relative to passing objects, but while the astronauts are weightless their inner ears indicate that their bodies are not moving. The astronauts’ experience is best explained by the hypothesis that conflicting inFORMation received by the brain about the body’s motion causes motion sickness.
Which one of the following, if true, provides the strongest additional support for the hypothesis above?
(A) During rough voyages ship passengers in cabins providing a view of the water are less likely to get motion sickness than are passengers in cabins providing no view.
(B) Many people who are experienced airplane passengers occasionally get motion sickness.
(C) Some automobile passengers whose inner ears indicate that they are moving and who have a clear view of the objects they are passing get motion sickness.
(D) People who have aisle seats in trains or airplanes are as likely to get motion sickness as are people who have window seats.
(E) Some astronauts do not get motion sickness even after being in orbit for several days.
此题答案是A，但是我觉得选B。题中指出MOTION SICKLESS的成因是大脑收到CONFLICTING的信息。根据题意，该信息应该是眼睛发出的身体运动的信息和内耳发出的身体静止的信息。A）中指出能看到流水的旅客比看不到景物的旅客更不容易得病。可是看不到景物的旅客哪里会获得CONFLICTING INFORMATION？ |
