The popular notion that older people need less sleep than younger adults is a myth, scientists reported on a well-acknowledged periodical yesterday.
While elderly people【C1】______to sleep for fewer hours than they did when they were younger, this has a negative effect on their brain’s performance and they would benefit from getting more, according to the research.
Sean Drummond, a psychiatrist at the University of California, San Diego, said older people are more likely to suffer from【C2】______sleep, while younger people are better at sleeping【C3】______straight through the night. More sleep in old age, however, is【C4】______with better health, and most older people would feel better and more【C5】______if they slept for longer periods instead of the four or five hours per night, he said.

"It’s【C8】______a myth that older people need less sleep. The healthier an older adult is, the more they sleep like they did when they were younger.

选项
答案
K
解析
tend,词义辨析题。根据词性,此处应当填入动词。选项中可以与不定式to搭配的动词有“intend,tend”。intend表示“主观的意图”,而tend表示“客观的趋势”。文中表示老年人睡眠时间减少,这是客观的事实而非老年人的主观意图,故选tend。
