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.

A)abandoned I)frequent
B)advanced J)fulfillment

D
解析
名词辨析题。空格为句首,后面为are that,因此空格处需要填入名词。根据空格前后文的语境,如果父母因女儿离婚感到生气,不喜欢她的新丈夫,并且不赞成她抚养孩子的方式,那么老人不喜欢女儿的探访是情理之中的事情,故空格处可填入chances“可能性,机会”。备选名词中所剩的fulfillment,“履行,实行”与此处要表达的意思不符,可以排除。
