Advancing age means losing your hair, your waistline and your memory, right? Dana Denis is just 40 years old, but【C1】______she’s worried about what she calls "my rolling mental blackouts. " "I try to remember something and I just blank out," she says.
You may【C2】______about these lapses, calling them " senior moments " or blaming " early Alzheimer’s(老年痴呆症)". Is it an inescapable fact that the older you get, the【C3】______you remember? Well, sort of. But as time goes by, we tend to blame age【C4】______problems that are not necessarily age-related.
" When a teenager can’t find her keys, she thinks it’s because she’s distracted or disorganized," says Paul Gold. "A 70-year-old blames her【C5】______. " In fact, the 70-year-old may have been【C6】______things for decades.
In healthy people, memory doesn’t worsen as【C7】______as many of us think. "As we【C8】______, the memory mechanism isn’t【C9】______," says psychologist Fergus Craik. "It’s just inefficient.

Margaret Sewell says; "We’re a quick-fix culture, but you have to【C18】______to keep your brain【C19】______shape. It’s like having a good body. You can’t go to the gym once a year【C20】______expect to stay in top form. "
【C8】
选项
A、mature
B、advance
C、age
D、grow
答案
C
解析
上下文推理+动词辨析。根据上下文可以知道,本句的意思是“随着我们变老”,C项age意为“变老”,是正确答案。A项mature(成熟),B项advarice(前进),D项grow(成长),都不能与上下文形成很好的衔接。
