问题     Do people get happier or more foul-tempered as they age? Stereotypes of irritable neighbors 【B1】______, scientists have been trying to answer this question for decades, and the results have been 【B2】______. Now a study of several thousand Americans born between 1885 and 1980 reveals that well-being 【B3】______ increases with age but overall happiness【B4】______when a person was born.
    【B5】______studies that have【B6】______older adults with the middle-aged and young have sometimes found that older adults are not as happy. But these studies could not 【B7】______ whether their 【B8】______ was because of their age or be cause of their【B9】______life experience. The new study, published online January 24 in Psychological Science, 【B10】______out the answer by examining 30 years of data on thousands of Americans, including【B11】______measures of mood and well-being, reports of job and relationship success, and objective measures of health.
    The researchers found, after controlling for variables【B12】______health, wealth, gender, ethnicity and education, that well-being increases over everyone’ s lifetime.【B13】______people who have lived through extreme hardship, such as the Great Depression,【B14】______much less happy than those who have had more【B15】______lives. This finding helps to【B16】______why past studies have found conflicting results—experience【B17】______, and tough times can【B18】______an entire generation’s happiness for the rest of their lives. The【B19】______news is,【B20】______we’ve lived through, we can all look forward to feeling more content as we age.
【B3】

选项 A、nevertheless
B、hence
C、indeed
D、accordingly

答案C

解析 上文指出之前的研究没有得出一致的结论;本句中的新研究则明确给出结论:幸福感随着年龄的增长而增强,indeed在此表达了对这一结论的肯定与强调,符合逻辑;同时indeed也与后面的but呼应,将结论又推进一步:但是整体的幸福感却还受(除年龄外)其他因素影响。C.indeed同时照应了句间和句内的逻辑,为正确答案。nevertheless“然而”,hence“所以”,accordingly“因此,相应地”均不符合逻辑。
