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] 【C2】
选项
答案
A
解析
形容词辨析题。空格前面是do not feel,因此空格处需要填入形容词。结合空格前句子的意思,“大多数的成年子女都尽可能地为他们年迈的父母提供更多的关爱和照顾”,而空格所在句,“而且大部分老年人并不会有______感觉。”因此,空格处需要填入的词义应该和前一句表达的含义相反。故A)abandoned“被遗弃的,被抛弃的”为本题答案。备选词语中有六个形容词,而advanced“先进的,高级的”,biased“有偏见的,结果偏倚的”,dependent“依赖的,从属的”,distant“遥远的,冷漠的”,frequent“频繁的,惯有的”,与此处要表达的意思均不符合,故排除。
