问题     Years ago, doctors often said that pain was a normal part of life. In particular, when older patients【C1】________of pain, they were told it was a natural part of aging and they would have to learn to live with it.
    Times have changed. Today, we take pain【C2】________. Indeed, pain is now considered the fifth vital sign, as important as blood pressure, temperature, breathing rate and pulse in【C3】________a person’s well-being. We know that chronic (慢性的) pain can disrupt (扰乱) a person’s life, causing problems that【C4】________from missed work to depression.
    That’s why a growing number of hospitals now depend upon physicians who【C5】________in pain
    medicine. Not only do we evaluate the cause of the pain, which can help us treat the pain better,
    but we also help provide comprehensive therapy for depression and other psychological and social
    【C6】________related to chronic pain. Such comprehensive therapy often【C7】________the work of social workers,
    psychiatrists (精神科医生) and psychologists, as well as specialists in pain medicine.
    This modern【C8】________for pain management has led to a wealth of innovative treatments which are more effective and with fewer side effects than ever before. Decades ago, there were only a【C9】________number of drugs available, and many of them caused【C10】________side effects in older people, including dizziness and fatigue. This created a double-edged sword: the medications helped relieve the pain but caused other problems that could be worse than the pain itself.
    A) complained     F) limited        K) seriously
    B) determining     G) magnificent    L)  respect
    C) gravely        H) prompting      M) result
    D) involves       I) range           N) significant
    E) issues         J) relieved         O) specialize

【C2】
选项
答案K
解析 副词辨析题。分析句子结构可知，句子主谓结构完整，空格处需要填入一个副词，修饰谓语动词take。结合首段所述可知，医生们过去对病人的疼痛不以为意，认为是正常现象，而现在的观点发生了变化。本段第三句具体说明了疼痛在医疗诊断时的重要性，所以空格处选择K)seriously，意思为“人们开始认真对待疼痛”。take sth．seriously意为“认真对待某事”。
