It is often observed that the aged spend much time thinking and talking about their past lives,【C1】______a bout the future. These reminiscences(回忆)are not simply random or trivial memories,【C2】______is their purpose merely to make conversation. The old person’s recollections of the past help to【C3】______an identity that is becoming increasingly fragile(脆弱的):【C4】______any role that brings respect or any goal that might provide【C5】______to the future, the individual mentions their past as a reminder to listeners, that here was a life【C6】______living.【C7】______, the memories form part of a continuing life【C8】______, in which the old person【C9】______the events and experiences of the years gone by and【C10】______on the overall meaning of his or her own almost completed life.
As the life cycle【C11】______to its close, the aged must also learn to accept the reality of their own impending(即将发生的)death.【C12】______this task is made difficult by the fact that death is almost a【C13】______subject in the United States. The mere discussion of death is often regarded as【C14】______. As adults many of us find the topic frightening and are【C15】______to think about it—and certainly not to talk about it【C16】______the presence of someone who is dying. Death has achieved this taboo【C17】______only in the modern industrial societies. There seems to be an important reason for our reluctance to【C18】______the idea of death. It is the very fact that death remains【C19】______our control; it is almost the only one of the natural processes【C20】______is so. [br] 【C10】
选项
A、reckons
B、counts
C、reflects
D、conceive
答案
C
解析
此题属于语义搭配题。reflect on/upon意为“反省,反思”,例如:The old man reflected on the changes that had taken place since his youth,此处需一个动词与下文的meaning搭配,因此只有思考生命的意义符合逻辑,故选项C) reflects正确。选项A) reckons(on)意为“指望,盼望”,例如:I’m reckoning on your continued support,另外的相关词组还有:reckon in(把……计算在内);reckon up(结算,估计);reckon with(处理,考虑到),如:reckon with the possibility;选项B) counts(on)意为“指望”;选项D) conceive意为“构想出,认为”,相当于imagine或invent,例如:He conceives of society as a jungle where only the fittest survive.本句的宾语是老年人行将结束的一生的意义,因此不可能是“想像”的,故选项D)不符合题意。
