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 70 percent less likely to suffer a stroke.
The researchers【C1】______for other aggravating factors such as blood pressure and alcohol use and believe the【C2】______comes through regulating the immune system.
It has long been thought that【C3】______meaningful activity after retirement is important for physical and mental health—which often declines【C4】______soon after retirement.
But, while past research focused on the【C5】______effects of negative psychological traits, such as depression and anxiety, new research is investigating how positive traits, such as【C6】______, protect against illness.
In the recent study, men and women aged 50 and over were【C7】______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 73 percent less likely to suffer a stroke compared to those with the lowest.
Other research has shown that positive mood can lower levels of the stress hormone Cortisol(荷尔蒙皮质醇), also【C8】______in stroke.
"This is significant as we have a(n) 【C9】______population and it helps show what behaviours prevent people from getting ill," says Cary Cooper, professor of health psychology at Lancaster University. "Maybe【C10】______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
【C3】
选项
答案
L
解析
空格位于that引导的从句中,从句中缺少主语成分,空格后又出现了meaningfulactivity,故应填入副词修饰meaningful或者填入非谓语动词。根据句意,退休后进行有意义的活动对身心健康非常重要,故应填入pursuing“追求,从事”。decreasing意为“减少”,不符合文意;dramatically“显著地,剧烈地”和gradually“逐渐地”与meaningful搭配意义说不通,也可排除。
