Do people get happier or more foul-tempered as they age? Stereotypes of irritable neighbors【C1】______, scientists have been trying to answer this question for decades, and the results have been【C2】______. Now a study of several thousand Americans born between 1885 and 1980 reveals that well-being【C3】______increases with age but overall happiness【C4】______when a person was born.
【C5】______studies that have【C6】______older adults with the middle-aged and young have sometimes found that older adults are not as happy. But these studies could not【C7】______whether their【C8】______was because of their age or because of their【C9】______life experience. The new study, published online January 24 in Psychological Science, 【C10】______out the answer by examining 30 years of data on thousands of Americans, including【C11】______measures of mood and well-being, reports of job and relationship success, and objective measures of health. The researchers found, after controlling for variables【C12】______health, wealth, gender, ethnicity and educa tion, that well-being increases over everyone’ s lifetime.【C13】______people who have lived through extreme hard ship, such as the Great Depression, 【C14】______much less happy than those who have had more【C15】______lives. This finding helps to【C16】______why past studies have found conflicting results—experience【C17】______, and tough times can【C18】______an entire generation’s happiness for the rest of their lives. The【C19】______news is, 【C20】______we’ve lived through, we can all look forward to feeling more content as we age.
【C5】
选项
A、Preceding
B、Later
C、Following
D、Previous
答案
D
解析
本题考查形容词辨析。空格处形容词修饰studies,空格句指出“______研究发现老年人不如后两者那样开心”。下句紧接着说明“但这些研究无法______”,第三句指出“新研究通过审查大量数据……”。由此推知空格所在句及下句提到的研究与“新研究”相对,即为“之前的”研究,排除选项B和C。而选项A和D均有“在前的”之意,但preceding强调“紧接在前”,previous除了有与preceding相近的用法外,还可以泛指“发生在前的”,符合原文语境。因此选D项。
