verbal : Which one of the following can be inferred from the passage?

Question

Why should this absolutely God-given faculty of memory retain so much better the events of yesterday than those of last year, and, best of all, those of an hour ago? Why, again, in old age should its grasp of childhood’s events seem firmest? Why should repeating an experience strengthen our recollection of it? Why should drugs, fevers, asphyxia, and excitement resuscitate things long since forgotten? . . . such peculiarities seem quite fantastic; and might, for aught we can see a priori, be the precise opposites of what they are. Evidently, then, the faculty does not exist absolutely, but works under conditions; and the quest of the conditions becomes the psychologist’s most interesting task.

Which one of the following can be inferred from the passage?

1. (A) Psychologists are trying to understand how memory functions
2. (B) We tend to misunderstand our brains’ status quo.
3. (C) Psychologists believe that understanding the conditions under which faculty of memory operates is the key to understand this faculty.
4. (D) The functions of faculty of memory are beyond human comprehension
