33、tman, a professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity.

34、 of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. Im not sure wed want to wipe those memories out, said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.Some people fear that although the drug would first be used in only very serious cases, it would become more and more common. “
35、People always have the ability to misuse science, said Joseph LeDoux, a New York University memory researcher. “All we want to do is to help people have better control of memories.”22.

41、can make people dog-tired. And, the situation would be even worse if they became sick as a dog. Still, people say every dog has its day. This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. To be successful, people often have to learn new skills. Yet, some people say that
