问题     Parenting brings fathers more joy than it does mothers, according to a new study. The research examined three studies【C1】________more than 18,000 participants. Across all three, parenthood was【C2】________with more positive wellbeing outcomes for dads than for mums.
    So why are fathers happier than mothers? "Fathers may fare better than mothers in part due to how they spend time with their children," said lead author Katherine Nelson-Coffey. In one study, the authors【C3】________that dads were more likely to take "playing" as an【C4】________    activity both when caring for their kids and spending time with their kids. "Playing with their children likely offers parents opportunities to experience positive feelings and【C5】________closeness with their children," they say.
    Fathers also did better than men without kids, reporting greater happiness, life satisfaction, and fewer【C6】________symptoms. They also reported greater connectedness and autonomy (自主). For mums, 【C7】________, compared to women without children, the results weren’t quite as positive. Mums reported greater autonomy, but also "greater trouble" and fewer positive【C8】________.
    Mums reported happier moods while interacting with their kids, compared to other experiences, but not while engaging【C9】________in childcare. "This difference suggests that how mothers and fathers spend time with their children might have important【C10】________for their wellbeing," the authors write. They suspect that mums may be less happy than dads because they’re more likely to have higher expectations about parenthood. As such, they’re more likely to be "let down" by the experience.

【C5】
选项
答案D
解析 空格位于to引导的非谓语结构中，且空格位于连词and和名词closeness之间，因此空格处考虑填入动词原形。词库中的动词原形只有cultivate“培养”和note“注意；指出”，note强调的是“对事物或事件的注意和呈现”，而本句强调的是“与孩子的亲密关系”，因此note不合适。代入cultivate，表示“培养与孩子的亲密关系”，句意通顺，故选D。
