Many experts are so 【C7】_____ of the benefits of challenging the brain 【C8】_____ they are putting the theory to 【C9】_____ in their own lives.

【C17】
选项
A、or
B、but
C、so
D、as
答案

解析
考查上下文语义逻辑。上文提到要keep physically active,这是适用于一般年龄段人的普遍建议,而下文提到mentally active as well,这是Cohen针对老人额外提的建议,故用but,表转折,突出重点。B正确。
