Recently I had a serious hip injury that landed me in the hospital. I was【C2】______ at first, but I was only facing a short-term crisis.

And then last night, I was【C5】______ when my niece said, "Aunt Eileen, I want to be like you when I’m older. You’re 76 years old,【C6】______ you’re happy, healthy, and still working. You’re actually 【C7】______!"

When I finally retired, I had to face some【C17】______ choices about what to do next. Did I want to move to an inexpensive apartment in a warmer climate,【C18】______ hobbies all day? No, I did not! So, I took some courses to improve my skills.

答案
C
解析
本题考查逻辑衔接。本句意为“虽然我开始第二职业主要是为了获得额外的收入,但我相信这份工作也让我保有活力并思维活跃”。句式结构为状语从句,因此空白处应填入连词,表示让步的逻辑关系,故选although。
