Do people get happier or more foul-tempered as they age? Stereotypes of irritable neighbors【C1】______, scientists have been trying to answer this question for decades, and the results have been【C2】______. Now a study of several thousand Americans born between 1885 and 1980 reveals that well-being【C3】______increases with age but overall happiness【C4】______when a person was born.
【C5】______studies that have【C6】______older adults with the middle-aged and young have sometimes found that older adults are not as happy. But these studies could not【C7】______whether their【C8】______was because of their age or because of their【C9】______life experience. The new study, published online January 24 in Psychological Science, 【C10】______out the answer by examining 30 years of data on thousands of Americans, including【C11】______measures of mood and well-being, reports of job and relationship success, and objective measures of health. The researchers found, after controlling for variables【C12】______health, wealth, gender, ethnicity and educa tion, that well-being increases over everyone’ s lifetime.【C13】______people who have lived through extreme hard ship, such as the Great Depression, 【C14】______much less happy than those who have had more【C15】______lives. This finding helps to【C16】______why past studies have found conflicting results—experience【C17】______, and tough times can【C18】______an entire generation’s happiness for the rest of their lives. The【C19】______news is, 【C20】______we’ve lived through, we can all look forward to feeling more content as we age.
【C1】
选项
A、aside
B、besides
C、alike
D、likely
答案
A
解析
本题考查副词辨析。文章第一句提出“当人们变老时是变得更快乐还是更为性情古怪”这一问题。空格所在句译为,“典型的脾气暴躁的邻居们______,科学家们数十年来一直在试图回答这个问题”。B项besides以及D项likely均不能作后置定语修饰名词,不符合原文要求。C项alike可作表语和后置定语,用于强调刚提及的两者的类似性,而文中并未提及“脾气暴躁的邻居们”和他人的比较。A项aside(撇开……不谈)作后置定语,译为“不谈那些典型的脾气暴躁的邻居们”,即不将这些极端个例计入在内,表明了研究的严谨性,符合文意。
