问题     As many people hit middle age, they often start to notice that their memory and mental clarity are not what they used to be. We suddenly can’t remember【C1】________we put the keys just a moment ago, or an old acquaintance’s name, or the name of an old band we used to love. As the brain【C2】________, we refer to these occurrences as "senior moments".【C3】________seemingly innocent, this loss of mental focus can potentially have a(n)【C4】________impact on our professional, social, and personal【C5】________.
    Neuroscientists, experts who study the nervous system, are increasingly showing that there’s actually a lot that can be done. It【C6】________out that the brain needs exercise in much the same way our muscles do, and the right mental【C7】________can significantly improve our basic cognitive【C8】________Thinking is essentially a【C9】________of making connections in the brain.

【C12】
选项 A、according to
B、regardless of
C、instead of
D、apart from
答案A
解析 考查短语辨析。空格处需填入衔接上下文语义的逻辑词，上文because从句提到驱动智力发展的连接可以通过努力和训练实现. 可知，“智力增长和波动”与“思维活动”是相关的. 即后者是前者产生的条件和依据。故答案选A项according to“根据”，表示“智力随着人为思想活动的程度而增长和波动”。B项regardless of“不管，不顾”；C项instead of“代替”；D项apart from“除……之外”在语义上均不能体现脑力活动和智力发展的相关性，故均排除。
