The popular notion that older people need less sleep than younger adults is a myth, scientists said yesterday.
While elderly people【S1】______to sleep for fewer hours than they did when they were younger, this has a( n) 【S2】______effect on their brain’s performance and they would benefit from getting more, according to research.
Sean Drummond, a psychiatrist (心理医生) at the University of California, San Diego, said that older people are more likely to suffer from broken sleep, while younger people are better at sleeping【S3】______straight through the night.
More sleep in old age, however, is【S4】______with better health, and most older people would feel better and more【S5】______if they slept for longer periods, he said.
" The ability to sleep in one chunk (整块时间) overnight goes down as we age but the amount of sleep we need to【S6】______well does not change, " Dr Drummond told the American Association for the Advancement of Science conference in San Diego.
" It’s【S7】______a myth that older people need less sleep. The more healthy an older adult is, the more they sleep like they did when they were【S8】______. Our data suggests that older adults would benefit from【S9】______to get as much sleep as they did in their 30s. That’s【S10】______from person to person, but the amount of sleep we had at 35 is probably the same amount as we need at need at 75. "

答案
N
解析
根据句意“上了年纪的人 比他们年轻时每日睡眠要少几个小时”,需要填写谓语动词,备选词汇的动词形式中,只有tend符合句意,tend to意为“常常,趋向于”。相同的表达方式有be inclined to或be apt to。cling to意为“坚持,依靠”
