Answer:

Repeatedly present the tone alone

Step-by-step explanation:

In the context above, It was said that he blinks when he hears the tone. Before ending the experiment, it was deliberated upon what the researcher would do in order to extinguish the blinking to that tone.

The best thing to do will be to repeatedly presss the tone alone so he gets used to it and reacts differently.
