The average male heart becomes weaker【C1】______age, and by the age of 70 its power to pump blood around the body could have【C2】______by up to a quarter of its youthful strength. Unlike men, women pump just as strongly at 70 as they do at 20.【C3】______the same period there was no age-related【C4】______in the power of the female heart,【C5】______that the heart of a healthy 70-year-old woman could【C6】______almost as well as a 20-year-olds.

选项
A、fall
B、cover
C、call
D、account
答案
D
解析
动词词组辨义题。上题提到“这就是女性为何更长寿的原因”,account for“对……做出解释,说明……的原因”符合文意。fall for“迷恋,信以为真”;cover for“代替”;call for“要求,需要”,这三个词组均与文意不符,故排除。
