How to Face Death
It is often observed that the aged spend much time thinking and talking about their past lives, rather than about the future. These reminiscences (回忆) are not simply random or trivial memories, (51) is their purpose merely to make conversation. The old person’s recollections of the past help to (52) an identity that is becoming increasingly fragile (脆弱的): (53) any role that brings respect or any goal that might provide orientation to the future, the individual mentions their past as a reminder to listeners, that here was a life (54) living. (55) , the memories form part of a continuing life (56) , in which the old person (57) the events and experiences of the years gone by and reflects on the overall meaning of his or her own almost completed life.
As the life cycle (58) to its close, the aged must also learn to accept the reality of their own impending (即将发生的) death. (59) this task is made difficult by the fact that death is almost a (60) subject in the United States. The mere discussion of death is often regarded as (61) As adults many of us find the topic frightening and are reluctant to think about it and certainly not to talk about it (62) the presence of someone who is dying. Death has achieved this taboo (63) only in the modern industrial societies. There seems to be an important reason for our reluctance to (64) the idea of death. It is the very fact that death remains (65) our control; it is almost the only one of the natural processes that is so.
选项
A、In a word
B、In brief
C、In addition
D、In particular
答案
C
解析
此题属于语篇连接题。根据上下文的意思,此处需填表示递进的短语In addition(另外),文章前一句讲回忆有助于老年人保留住他们的身份,后一句讲回忆成为老年人不断回顾的生活的一部分,故答案C In addition正确。选项A In a word意为“总而言之,一句话”;选项B In brief意为“简言之”;选项D In particular意为“特别,尤其表示更进一步”,均与文章内容不符。
