We all like to feel needed. But new research suggests having a sense of purpose is good for our health, too.
In a study of 7,000 people, those with the strongest sense of direction in life were over【C4】______percent less likely to suffer a stroke.
The researchers【S1】______for other aggravating factors such as blood pressure and alcohol use and believe the【S2】______comes through regulating the immune system.
It has long been thought that【S3】______meaningful activity after retirement is important for physical and mental health—which often declines【S4】______soon after retirement.
But while past research focused on the【S5】______effects of negative psychological traits, such as depression and anxiety, new research is investigating how positive traits, such as【S6】______, protect against illness.
In the recent study, men and women aged 50 and over were【S7】______for four to five years and completed psychological tests while researchers recorded strokes.
The results show that the higher someone’s sense of purpose, the lower their risk of a stroke. Those with the greatest sense of purpose were【C7】______percent less likely to suffer a stroke compared to those with the lowest.
Other research has shown thai positive mood can lower levels of the stress hormone Cortisol(荷尔蒙皮质醇), also【S8】______in stroke.
"This is significant as we have an【S9】______population and it helps show what behaviours prevent people from getting ill," says Cary Cooper, professor of health psychology at Lancaster University. "Maybe【S10】______is not good for some. "
A)accounted I)implicated
B)ageing J)optimism
C)ambition K)outstanding
D)damaging L)pursuing
E)decreasing M)retirement
F)dramatically N)searched
G)effect O)tracked
H)gradually
【S5】
选项
答案
D
解析
空格位于名词effects之前,故应填入形容词进行修饰。根据下文的depression and anxiety可知,这些影响都是负面的、有害的,故空格处应填入damaging,意为“有破坏性的,损害的”。
