1st sentence: High rise walls stand as canvasses where art can be portrayed.
2nd sentence: ‘have’ is an auxiliary which requires a verb in the past tense

I. Pavlov and his studies of classical conditioning have become famous since his early work between 1890-1930.
- The unconditioned stimulus (or UCS) is the object or event that originally produces the reflexive/natural response
- To summarize, classical conditioning (later developed by John Watson) involves learning to associate an unconditioned stimulus that already brings about a particular response (i.e. a reflex) with a new (conditioned) stimulus, so that the new stimulus brings about the same response.
- Pavlov developed some rather unfriendly technical terms to describe this process.
- Classical conditioning is "classical" in that it is the first systematic study of basic laws of learning/conditioning.
II The response to this is called the unconditioned response (or UCR). The neutral stimulus (NS) is a new stimulus that does not produce a response.
