问题     A walk with your spouse gives you a chance to talk over the day. But that’s not why you should【C1】______. Here’s why: Getting【C2】______can mean a longer life for both of you. When you can’t walk a quarter mile in five minutes, your 【C3】______ of dying within three years goes up dramatically.【C4】______isolation is as important as walking,【C5】______ if your heart doesn’t have a reason to keep【C6】______, it won’t.
    A ten-year study of 545, 000 Americans found that people who eat about four ounces of beef or pork a day are at least 30 percent【C7】______ likely to die early,【C8】______ those who 【C9】______ an ounce or less daily. 【C10】______previous research has linked a diet【C11】______ in red meat to a greater risk of heart disease and colon cancer, this is the first big study to look at how it affects your life【C12】______.
    Two recent studies suggest surprising but heartwarming【C13】______to a longer life. You’re more likely to rack up the years if you can do the following. First, expect the best. Of 100,000 women in the Women’s Health Initiative study, those rated【C14】______by special questionnaires were 14 percent less likely than pessimists to die during the study’s first eight years. And second, care for a loved one. 【C15】______the stress involved, men and women who【C16】______most time taking care of a spouse【C17】______ their own risk of dying【C18】______36 percent over  seven-year period, researchers at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor found. Last but not least, get a goal; Having a【C19】______gives you an edge. Whether you believe you have some purpose to fulfill on earth or just have trips you plan to take and books you want to read, you have a【C20】______edge over people with fewer goals.
【C8】
选项 A、compared with
B、contrast with
C、contrary to
D、different from
答案A
解析 短语辨析题。根据第7题句意和上下文可知，这里表示“相比较而言”。四个选项中，首先排除[D]different from“不同于，有异于”，强调差异；其次排除 [C]contrary to“违反，与……相反”；[A]compared with和[B]contrast with都可以表示“相比较而言”或形成对比，但contrast with为动词短语，不能独立使用，而compared with可以单独使用，故答案为[A]。
