Do people get happier or more foul-tempered as they age? Stereotypes of irritable neighbors【C1】______, scientists have been trying to answer this question for decades, and the results have been【C2】______. Now a study of several thousand Americans born between 1885 and 1980 reveals that well-being【C3】______increases with age but overall happiness【C4】______when a person was born.
【C5】______studies that have【C6】______older adults with the middle-aged and young have sometimes found that older adults are not as happy. But these studies could not【C7】______whether their【C8】______was because of their age or because of their【C9】______life experience. The new study, published online January 24 in Psychological Science, 【C10】______out the answer by examining 30 years of data on thousands of Americans, including【C11】______measures of mood and well-being, reports of job and relationship success, and objective measures of health. The researchers found, after controlling for variables【C12】______health, wealth, gender, ethnicity and educa tion, that well-being increases over everyone’ s lifetime.【C13】______people who have lived through extreme hard ship, such as the Great Depression, 【C14】______much less happy than those who have had more【C15】______lives. This finding helps to【C16】______why past studies have found conflicting results—experience【C17】______, and tough times can【C18】______an entire generation’s happiness for the rest of their lives. The【C19】______news is, 【C20】______we’ve lived through, we can all look forward to feeling more content as we age.
【C7】
选项
A、detect
B、discover
C、derive
D、discern
答案
D
解析
本题考查动词辨析。上文提到以前的研究发现老年人有时不如更年轻的人感觉幸福:本句转折指出:但是研究无法______他们的______是因为他们的年龄还是由于人生经历。空格处填入动词接whether…or…(是……还是……)结构,即要在两个原因当中确定一个,而不单单是“发现,察觉”,排除A和B,另外A和B也不能接whether…or…结构;C项derive的固定搭配有derive sth.from sth.表示“得到某物”,derive from表示“起源”,都不合文意。D项discern“辨明,分清”可接whether…or…,表示“在二者中辨别出一个”,符合文意。
