d. 以下の段落あ〜えを、適切な文章になるように並べかえなさい。

　

【あ】For synesthetes, spoken language is not just something they hear: they see words as colors.　In a recent study in London, blindfolded subjects had their brains monitored by a PET scanner while they listened to spoken words and sounds.　The scans showed consistently that, when the synesthetes heard something, the visual areas of their brains were activated, particularly the areas believed to process color, while no such activity occurred in the brains of non-synesthetic subjects.

　

【い】The journalist Alison Motluk recalls that, when she was writing a short story in high school, her English teacher asked her to change the name of a character.　Motluk protested: "She needs a strong red name."　What did she mean by describing the character's name as "red"?　Well, she meant the same thing I mean when I say a traffic light is red.　For Motluk, names have colors, just as physical objects do.　And not just names: almost all words have colors for her, and even numbers and letters of the alphabet.

　

【う】Synesthetic individuals possess their ability from early childhood, probably from birth, and they are astonished to discover that other people lack the ability.　We have almost no idea how synesthesia works, beyond the obvious conclusion that affected individuals have extra connections in their brains, connections which the rest of us lack.　Some researchers have suggested that all children are born with synesthesia, but that it disappears in all but a tiny minority of people, and there is a small amount of evidence supporting this idea.

　

【え】This phenomenon is called 'synesthesia,' and it affects about one person in 25,000.　People with synesthesia constantly receive many sensory impressions which the rest of us do not: they report that white paint smells blue, that grass smells purple, that a hovering helicopter sounds green, that the vowel sound of coo appears yellow.　Though such people vary in their responses, any one individual is highly consistent: when tested at intervals of many weeks, a synesthete almost invariably gives the same response.
