The popular notion that older people need less sleep than younger adults is a myth, scientists reported on a well-acknowledged periodical yesterday.
While elderly people【C1】______to sleep for fewer hours than they did when they were younger, this has a negative effect on their brain’s performance and they would benefit from getting more, according to the research.

More sleep in old age, however, is【C4】______with better health, and most older people would feel better and more【C5】______if they slept for longer periods instead of the four or five hours per night, he said.

答案
E
解析
age,上下文题。根据词性,此处应当填入动词。文章开篇就指出“…older people need less sleep than younger adults…”,即随着年龄增长,一觉到天明的能力下降,故此处应当采用表示年龄增长的词。此题关键在于对于age一词的词性判断是否准确。
