American presidents seem to age before our eyes. But the common belief that high-office stress grays our leaders faster than【C1】________may be a myth, new research finds. In fact, the majority of American presidents have lived longer than【C2】________men of their times.
That’s not to【C3】________that chronic stress has no effect on a person’s lifespan, but【C4】________does high social standing. The findings【C5】________a body of research linking high status to better health:【C6】________, Oscar winners live longer than those who were only【C7】________; and the long life effect is also seen in Nobel Prize winners.
The new study, which was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association,【C8】________the dates of birth, inauguration and death of all 34 past presidents who died of natural causes. The【C9】________lifespan for these men should have been 68 years,【C10】________they’d aged twice as fast during their years in 【C11】________as the popular wisdom suggests they do.
【C12】________the study found, these presidents lived an average 73 years. And indeed, 23 of the 34 presidents who died of natural causes lived longer than【C13】________, compared with other men their age during their lifetimes.
Some presidents【C14】________an exceptionally long time: Gerald Ford died at 93.5 years, AND Ronald Reagan at 93.3. All【C15】________living presidents have already exceeded their life【C16】________, or are likely to do so.
So why do people【C17】________the top of the hierarchy fare better than those below?【C18】________to wealth, education and the best health care of their times would seem to be obvious factors【C19】________medical attention seems to have actually killed President Garfield, who died from a fatal【C20】________introduced by his doctors’ unclean treatment techniques after he was shot by an assassin.
【C11】
选项
A、duty
B、place
C、office
D、force
答案
C
解析
上下文语义题。文章第一段第二句就提到人们通常认为位于高层的压力(high-office stress)会使领袖比在常态下苍老得更快,此处提及的总统寿命也是大众的观点(as the popular wisdom suggests)。根据they’d aged twice“他们加倍衰老”和空格前during their years in推断此处应该是讲在职期间,m office为常用搭配,意为“在职”,填入句中表示“他们在任职期间加倍衰老”,符合上下文语境,选C项。A项duty “责任”常与on搭配,on du够意为“值日”。B项place“地方”可与in搭配成in place,意为 “在适当的位置”,并无“在职”的意思。D项force“影响力;力”和m搭配成m force,意为“有效”。
