问题     As many people hit middle age, they often start to notice that their memory and mental clarity are not what they used to be. We suddenly can’t remember【C1】________we put the keys just a moment ago, or an old acquaintance’s name, or the name of an old band we used to love. As the brain【C2】________, we refer to these occurrences as "senior moments".【C3】________seemingly innocent, this loss of mental focus can potentially have a(n)【C4】________impact on our professional, social, and personal【C5】________.
    Neuroscientists, experts who study the nervous system, are increasingly showing that there’s actually a lot that can be done. It【C6】________out that the brain needs exercise in much the same way our muscles do, and the right mental【C7】________can significantly improve our basic cognitive【C8】________Thinking is essentially a【C9】________of making connections in the brain.

【C5】
选项 A、wellbeing
B、environment
C、relationship
D、outlook
答案A
解析 考查名词辨析。空格所在句意为“这种精神能量的缺失会给我们的职业、社交还有个人________带来有害的影响”。应填入与professional，social和personal三个形容词相搭配的名词，wellbeing“幸福”填入空格处意为“职业的、社交的和个人的幸福状况”，符合语境，故答案选A。记忆力衰退无法影响个人所处的职业和社交环境，故排除B项；C项relationship填入空格处所表述的语义过于言重. 不如wellbeing贴合文意，故排除；记忆力的衰退也不可能影响整个社会的前景，故排除D项outlook“前景，展望”。
