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】________.

选项 A、sharpness
B、stability
C、framework
D、flexibility

答案A

解析 考查动宾搭配。空格前的regain意为“重获”,其宾语应该是“本来具备或后来失去”的东西。而文章首段就提到,人到中年,记忆力和思维清晰度会降低;第二段提到了该课程可以提高记忆力和注意力,因此可推断此处填入的词应与clarity“清晰度”意思相近,故答案选A项sharpness“清晰度”。B项stability“稳定性”;C项framework“框架”;D项flexibility “灵活性”与regain搭配均不符合语境,故排除。
