条件反射最广为人知的实验是在19世纪末由俄国生理学家巴甫洛夫所进行的

The most well-known conditioned reflex experiment was carried out at the end of 19th century by a Russian physiologist, Pavlov.
他在每一次喂狗吃肉之前都会响一次铃狗有肉吃就会流口水久而久之狗一听到铃声就知道有肉可吃就会不自主地流下口水
tā 他zài 在měi 每yīcì 一次wèi 喂gǒu 狗chī 吃ròu 肉zhīqián 之前dōu 都huì 会xiǎng 响yīcì 一次líng 铃gǒu 狗yǒu 有ròu 肉chī 吃jiù 就huì 会liú 流kǒushuǐ 口水jiǔérjiǔzhī 久而久之gǒu 狗yī 一tīngdào 听到língshēng 铃声jiù 就zhīdào 知道yǒu 有ròu 肉kě 可chī 吃jiù 就huì 会 不自主de 地liú 流xià 下kǒushuǐ 口水
He rings the bell every time before feeding the dogs. The dogs drool when there's meat to eat. As time passed by, the dogs would know that there's meat to eat once they heard the bell, and they would drool involuntarily.
所以条件反射就是指长时间下来对特定制约刺激的反应
suǒyǐ 所以tiáojiànfǎnshè 条件反射jiùshì 就是zhǐ 指cháng 长shíjiān 时间xiàlai 下来duì 对tèdìng 特定zhìyuē 制约cìjī 刺激de 的fǎnyìng 反应
Therefore, conditioned reflex indicates the response to a long-term specifically restricted stimulation.
