Fossey made her first trip to Africa in 1963.Three years later,she returned to Africa to begin a long-term study of the mountain gorillas.She set up a camp in the Democratic Republic of Congo but moved to Rwanda because of political reasons in 1967.She established her "Karisoke"Research Centre camp on September 24,1967. Fossey's aims were to study gorilla ecology (and social organization.She found that in order to achieve this,she needed to recognize individual gorillas,which required that the gorillas get used to her presence ()By copying gorillas'behaviour and sounds,Fossey began to gain their 23 trust,and in 1970 an adult male gorilla she had named "Peanuts"reached out to touch her hand. Close observations over thousands of hours enabled Fossey to gain the gorillas'trust and bring forth new knowledge about their behaviour.Stories and photographs of her work were published in National Geographic Magazine and elsewhere. In 1977,one of Fossey's favorite gorillas,Digit,was killed by poachers and she established the Digit Fund to help raise money for gorilla protection efforts in the same year. On December 26,1985,Fossey was murdered while going back to her house in Karisoke.Her body was discovered near the research centre.Most probably,Dian Fossey had been killed by the poachers she'd fought against.On her tombstone(墓a碑)was“No one loved gorillas more”.

If Tononi's theory is right,it would explain why,when we miss a night's sleep,we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information-our brains may have smaller room for new experiences. Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the synapses become thinner.The team discovered that some synapses seem to be protected and stayed the same size.5 "You keep what matters,"Tononi says. A.We should also try to sleep well the night before. B.It's as if the brain is preserving its most important memories. C.Similarly,when people go for a few days without sleeping,they get sick. D.The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories. E.That's why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning. F."Sleep is the price we pay for learning,"says Giulio Tononi,who developed the idea. 蕊 G.Tononi's team measured the size of these connections,or synapses,in the brains of 12 mice. ◆单元话题表达积累◆ 牛
