It is often observed that the aged spend much time thinking and talking about their past lives,【1】about the future. These reminiscences are not simply random or trivial memories,【2】is their purpose merely to make conversation. The old person’s recollections of the past help to【3】an identity that is becoming increasingly fragile:【4】any role that brings respect or any goal that might provide【5】to the future, the individual mentions his past as a reminder to listeners, that here was a life【6】living.【7】, the memories form part of a continuing life【8】, in which the person【9】the events and experiences of the-years gone by and【10】on the overall meaning of his or her own almost completed life.
As the life cycle【11】to its close, the aged must also learn to accept the reality of their own impending death.【12】this task is made difficult by the fact that death is almost a【13】subject in the United States. The mere discussion of death is often regarded as【14】.As adults many of us find the topic frightening and are【15】to think about it — and certainly not to talk about it【16】the presence of someone who is dying. Death has achieved this taboo【17】only in the modern industrial societies. There seems to bean important reason for our reluctance to【18】the idea of death. It is the very fact that death remains【19】our control; it is almost the only one of the natural processes【20】is so.
选项
A、reckons
B、counts
C、reflects
D、conceives
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。所选词要与on搭配,故首先排除[D]conceive“构想出”,相当于imagine或invent, conceive与of搭配,不与on搭配。其他三项与on搭配,意思分别为[A] reckons(on)意为“指望,盼望”、[B] counts(on)意为“指望”、[C].reflects(on/upon)意为“回想,反思”。此处需一个动词与下文的the overall meaning of...life搭配,因此只有“思考生命的意义”才能使上下文意思通顺,故选[C]。
