The old person’s recollections of the past help to【C3】______an identity that is becoming increasingly fragile(脆弱的):【C4】______any role that brings respect or any goal that might provide【C5】______to the future, the individual mentions their past as a reminder to listeners, that here was a life【C6】______living.【C7】______, the memories form part of a continuing life【C8】______, in which the old person【C9】______the events and experiences of the years gone by and【C10】______on the overall meaning of his or her own almost completed life.
As the life cycle【C11】______to its close, the aged must also learn to accept the reality of their own impending(即将发生的)death.【C12】______this task is made difficult by the fact that death is almost a【C13】______subject in the United States. The mere discussion of death is often regarded as【C14】______. As adults many of us find the topic frightening and are【C15】______to think about it—and certainly not to talk about it【C16】______the presence of someone who is dying.

选项
A、under
B、above
C、beyond
D、within
答案
C
解析
此题属于词语搭配题。beyond意为“(指空间)在…那一边”,在借喻中有“超出”之意,偏重于客观事物非本身能力所能达到或完成,例如:The failure arose from circumstances beyond our control,其他类似的说法有:beyond one’s power/endurance/comprehension.故选项C) be yond正确。选项A) under(control)意为“情况正常,处于控制之下”,例如:bring inflation under control;选项B) above强调本身凌驾于一般标准之上,例如:Do you consider yourself above criticism/reproach? 难道你认为谁都不能批评你吗/你是无可指责的吗? 选项D) within通常不与control连用。
