Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size. It
was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of
the lake; the satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating
on the water of the lake.
The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific community
because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands of years,
unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have affected organisms in more
exposed areas. The downside of the discovery, however, lies in the difficulty of conducting research on the lake in
such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without
actually exposing the lake to contamination. Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this.

A. made use of radio waves

Because learning continues throughout our lives and affects almost everything we do, the study of learning is
important in many different fields. Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate children. Psychologists,
social workers, criminologists, and other human-service workers need to understand how certain experiences
change people’s behaviors. Employers, politicians, and advertisers make use of the principles of learning to
influence the behavior of workers, voters, and consumers.
Learning is closely related to memory, which is the storage of information in the brain. Psychologists who study
memory are interested in how the brain stores knowledge, where this storage takes place, and how the brain later
retrieves knowledge when we need it. In contrast, psychologists who study learning are more interested in
behavior and how behaviour changes as a result of a person’s experiences.
There are many forms of learning, ranging from simple to complex. Simple forms of learning involve a single
stimulus. A stimulus is anything perceptible to the senses, such as a sight, sound, smell, touch, or taste. In a form of
learning known as classical conditioning, people learn to associate two stimuli that occur in sequence, such as
lightning followed by thunder. In operant conditioning, people learn by forming an association between a behavior
and its consequences (reward or punishment). People and animals can also learn by observation - that is, by
watching others perform behaviors. More complex forms of learning include learning languages, concepts, and
motor skills.
