问题     As many people hit middle age, they often start to notice that their memory and mental clarity are not what they used to be. We suddenly can’t remember【B1】______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【B2】______, we refer to these occurrences as " senior moments. "【B3】______seemingly innocent, this loss of mental focus can potentially have a(n) 【B4】______impact on our professional, social, and personal【B5】______.
    Neuroscientists, experts who study the nervous system, are increasingly showing that there’s actually a lot that can be done. It【B6】______out that the brain needs exercise in much the same way our muscles do, and the right mental【B7】______can significantly improve our basic cognitive【B8】______. Thinking is essentially a【B9】______of making connections in the brain. To a certain extent, our ability to【B10】______in making the connections that drive intelligence is inherited.【B11】______, because these connections are made through effort and practice, scientists believe that intelligence can expand and fluctuate【B12】______mental effort.

选项 A、If
B、Unless
C、Once
D、While
答案D
解析 由seemingly innocent“貌似无害”可以体会到作者并不是真地认为经常爱忘事这种表现无害。后半句的内容体现了作者的真实看法，那就是这种精神集中力的丧失会潜在地对职业、社交和个人健康造成破坏性的影响，因此，innocent“无辜的，无害的”与下半句之间存在转折关系，而能够表示转折关系的连词只有while，故答案为[D]。
