Yes and no -- adaptive scoring works off of the mark on the articles
in a group when you exit.  But if something has been adaptively scored
way down, one "read" mark may not be enough to cancel it out.

If for some reason you want to defeat adaptive scoring for a thread or
person, you can increase them temporarily or permanently with I.
