Contrary to popular belief, older people generally do not want to live with their children. Moreover, most adult children【C1】______every bit as much care and support to their aging parents as was the case in the "good old days" , and most older people do not feel【C2】______.
About 80% of people 65 years and older have living children, and about 90% of them have【C3】______contact with their children. About 75% of elderly parents who don’t go to nursing homes live within 30 minutes of at least one of their children.
However,【C4】______having contact with children does not guarantee happiness in old age. In fact, some research has found that people who are most involved with their families have the lowest spirits. This research may be【C5】______, however, as ill health often makes older people more【C6】______and thereby increases contact with family members. So it is more likely that poor health, not just family involvement,【C7】______spirits.
Increasingly, researchers have begun to look at the quality of relationships, rather than at the frequency of contact, between the elderly and their children. If parents and children share interests and values and agree on childrearing practices and religious【C8】______, they are likely to enjoy each other’s company. Disagreements on such matters can【C9】______cause problems. If parents are angered by their daughter’s divorce, dislike her new husband, and disapprove of how she is raising their grandchildren,【C10】______are that they are not going to enjoy her visits.
A)abandoned I)frequent
B)advanced J)fulfillment
C)biased K)grant
D)chances L)merely
E)commitment M)provide
F)dampens N)understandably
G)dependent O)unrealistically
H)distant [br] 【C1】
选项
答案
M
解析
动词辨析题。空格前面是主语most adult children,后面为名词every bit as muchcare,因此空格处需要填入动词。根据该句的主语和宾语的意思:“多数成年子女”和“关爱和照顾”,推测该动词应该是“给予,提供”的意思。由此确定M)provide“提供,准备”为本题答案。备选词语中有四个动词,而advanced“前进,增加”,dampens“抑制,使……沮丧”,grant“授予,允许,同意”,与此处要表达的“提供”意思均不符合,故排除。
