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.

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.

A)abandoned I)frequent
B)advanced J)fulfillment
C)biased K)grant
D)chances L)merely

选项
答案
L
解析
副词辨析题。空格后面为一个完整的句子,意思是“和子女存在联系并不能保证老年人的幸福感”,因此空格处需要填入副词。结合后文的研究结论可以推测该副词应为merely“仅仅,只是”。备选项中的其他三个副词很明显都与此处要表达的意思不符,故均排除。
