Advancing age means losing your hair, your waistline and your memory, right? Dana Denis is just 40 years old, but【C1】______she’s worried about what she calls "my rolling mental blackouts. " "I try to remember something and I just blank out," she says.
You may【C2】______about these lapses, calling them " senior moments " or blaming " early Alzheimer’s(老年痴呆症)". Is it an inescapable fact that the older you get, the【C3】______you remember? Well, sort of. But as time goes by, we tend to blame age【C4】______problems that are not necessarily age-related.
" When a teenager can’t find her keys, she thinks it’s because she’s distracted or disorganized," says Paul Gold. "A 70-year-old blames her【C5】______. " In fact, the 70-year-old may have been【C6】______things for decades.
In healthy people, memory doesn’t worsen as【C7】______as many of us think. "As we【C8】______, the memory mechanism isn’t【C9】______," says psychologist Fergus Craik. "It’s just inefficient.
The brain’s processing【C10】______slows down over the years, though no one knows exactly【C11】______Recent research suggests that nerve cells lose efficiency and【C12】______there’s less activity in the brain. But, cautions Barry Gordon, "It’s not clear that less activity is【C13】______.A beginning athlete is winded(气喘吁吁)more easily than a【C14】______athlete.

Margaret Sewell says; "We’re a quick-fix culture, but you have to【C18】______to keep your brain【C19】______shape. It’s like having a good body. You can’t go to the gym once a year【C20】______expect to stay in top form. "
【C17】
选项
A、makes
B、takes
C、does
D、spends
答案
B
解析
动宾搭配。本句的意思是“尽管这样做很费力”。take effort意为“费力”,B项为正确答案。容易混淆的是选项A,make efforts意为“尽力”,make efforts to do sth.意为“尽力做某事”。
