隔离结构

This success, coupled with later research showing that memory itself is not genetically determined, led Ericsson to conclude that the act of memorizing is more of a cognitive exercise than an intuitive one.

intuitive先天的

结构

句子的主语是this success和later research；谓语是led；宾语是Ericsson；不定式短语to conclude作状语；主干结构是：This success and later research led Ericsson to conclude that…
在research后面接一个现在分词短语作后置定语，在这个现在分词短语中that引导的从句作showing的宾语；在不定式短语中that引导的从句作conclude的宾语，more…than结构翻译成“与其说…不如说…”

翻译

这种成功和后来表明记忆本身并不是先天决定的研究使艾瑞克森总结道，记忆的行为与其说是一种先天的行为，不如说是一种习得的行为。
