Question:

Refer to the passage given above. The passage suggests that the human brain deals with unpredictable sound by:

1.
shutting down auditory processing entirely during sleep.
2.
reallocating working memory from the task at hand toward monitoring the sound as a potential threat.
3.
expanding long-term memory capacity to compensate for lost concentration.
4.
filtering out all background sound automatically once it becomes constant.

Correct Answer: reallocating working memory from the task at hand toward monitoring the sound as a potential threat.

The passage explains that the brain treats unpredictable sound as a standing threat, "diverting working memory toward monitoring and away from the task at hand." The other options describe mechanisms the passage never mentions.
