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.
【C2】
选项
A、worrying
B、revealing
C、appealing
D、conflicting
答案
D
解析
本题考查上下文语义及动词辨析。空格句指出,之前科学家们为解决该问题做出很多的努力,结论一直______,下句紧接着引出目前一项研究揭示了这一问题的结论:而文章第二段也指出之前研究有时发现老年人不及中年人和年轻人幸福,即有时发现老年人感觉更幸福;这都说明之前的研究并没有得出一致的结论,而直到现在才有新研究给出确切结论。因此,D项conflicting“冲突的,相矛盾的,不一致的”为正确选项。另外,文章最后一段中出现“conflicting results”,通读文章后也可选出正确答案。worrying“担心的,焦虑的”,revealing“有启发作用的”,appealing“吸引人的”,均与题意不符。
