There is a myth out there that too many people believe: that when we reach a certain age, we can no longer be happy, independent and productive members of society. How【C1】________that is!
Recently I had a serious hip injury that landed me in the hospital. I was【C2】________at first, but I was only facing a short-term crisis. Now, after good medical【C3】________, I’m back on my feet, back to work, and feeling great. Sure, I have my aches and pains, and I move【C4】________ slower than I did when I was 18, but who doesn’t? And then last night, I was【C5】________when my niece said, "Aunt Eileen, I want to be like you when I’m older. You’re 76 years old,【C6】________you’re happy, healthy, and still working. You’re actually【C7】________! "
She was right However, I haven’t always felt so secure. Years ago, my grandmother【C8】________ serious financial problems. Fortunately, our family was able to take her in, and she【C9】________lived to the ripe old age of 94. However, her situation【C10】________me think about my own financial future. I was in my early 30s. Would I have sufficient【C11】________to live comfortably for another 50 or 60 years? The answer was probably no, so I decided to take action to improve the odds. I【C12】________to worry about becoming old, poor, and lonely, but not any【C13】________. I am not wealthy, but I am【C14】________compared to many others of my age. So how did I accomplish this?
Well, first I【C15】________a financial advisor. She said I had been too happy-go-luck with my【C16】________. As a result, I might run out of my money and should ameliorate the risks by saving more right away.
When I finally retired, I had to face some【C17】________choices about what to do next. Did I want to move to an inexpensive apartment in a warmer climate,【C18】________hobbies all day? No, I did not! So, I took some courses to improve my skills. Then I found a part-time job I really like.【C19】________I started this second career mostly for【C20】________income, I believe that working keeps me alive and mentally alert.

选项
A、bored
B、angered
C、relaxed
D、exhausted
答案
B
解析
画线后半句是转折连词but连接,指出“我只是面临短期的危机”,由此推断前半句的情绪应与此相反,angered“恼怒的”符合题意,答案选B项。
