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.

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.

答案
F
解析
definitely,上下文题。根据词性,此处应当填入副词。可选范围为“definitely,probably”。文章开篇就已表明作者立场“The popular notion that older people need less sleep than younger adults is a myth…”,此处为进一步重申观点,故以definitely一词加以强调,而并不是用不确定的probably。
