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】______.

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.

答案
E
解析
名词辨析题。空格前面是形容词religious,因此空格处需要填入名词。该句含义是,父母和子女在子女教育和宗教——能够达成一致,前文提到了分享各自兴趣和价值观,而空格前是形容词religious,因此,空格处可填入commitment“承诺,(对某一组织、活动等的)忠诚”符合句意。备选词语中的chances“可能性,机会”和fulfillment“履行,实行”,与此处文意不符,故均排除。
