问题     Many Americans have been feeding a baby aspirin once a day, believing it would protect them from a heart attack, a stroke, and even cancer. But several recent studies have 【C1】________this into question.
    One large-scale study【C2】________more than 19,000 healthy people ages 65 and older. Participants were【C3】________assigned to take either 100 mg of aspirin (slightly more than the 81 mg dose that【C4】________people take) or a placebo (a harmless substance given to a sick person【C5】________medicine, without telling them it is not real) every day for an average of 4.7 years.【C6】________did people in the aspirin group not【C7】________their risk of heart disease, dementia, or disability, but they were also more【C8】________to suffer from significant bleeding in the digestive tract or brain. And they were more likely to die【C9】________apparently because of an increased risk of【C10】________cancer.
    【C11】________, a trial of more than 12,500 people ages 55 and older【C12】________to have a moderate cardiovascular risk found no benefit to taking aspirin daily. In a study of more than 15,000 people with diabetes, a daily aspirin did【C13】________heart attacks and strokes, but it also【C14】________ major bleeding. And according to an analysis of data from more than 117,000 people,【C15】________ people needed larger doses of aspirin to help【C16】________their risk of heart attack, stroke, and cancer.
    The bottom line: Although there is good【C17】________that aspirin can help people who have already had or are at【C18】________risk for heart attacks or strokes, the drug’s【C19】________is not so clear for people, especially older people, with less risk.【C20】________your doctor before starting—or stopping—aspirin.
【C12】
选项 A、doomed
B、deemed
C、denied
D、deserved
答案B
解析 本题空格处需要填入一个动词的过去分词，需满足句意“同样地，一项针对超过1. 25万个66岁及以上、________患有中等风险心血管疾病的人的试验发现，每天服用阿司匹林没有任何好处。”空格所填动词的过去分词需后接不定式一起修饰people ages 55 and older，根据found no benefit to taking aspirin daily可知，有中等风险心血管疾病的人并没有因为服用阿司匹林得到改善，空格处是对其患病风险的确认。四个选项中只有B项deemed构成短语deem to do“认为，视为”，符合句意，故为正确答案。A项doomed意为“注定，必然”；C项denied意为“否认”；D项deserved意为“值得，应得”，三个选项代入原文均不符合句意，故排除。
