问题     Forty-three percent of Americans say they are too tired to function. So, some mornings, you might even【C1】________staying in bed forever. Hey, look, your wish【C2】________! You’ve got everything you need in bed and don’t have to move again. But it won’t be long before you realize that you’ve made a big【C3】________.
    People spend【C4】________Sundays or sick days in bed all the time and are no worse for wear, but if you don’t start moving again after 24 hours, one of the first things to change is your lungs. Gravity isn’t pulling them down into their normal position anymore, so the lower part of your lungs will【C5】________up. You probably won’t feel any different, but watch out, because it’s harder for mucus to pass【C6】________those collapsed passages. So it can get trapped, which can【C7】________ your lungs and ultimately lead to pneumonia.
    Normally, your bones and muscles help【C8】________your weight under gravity. But now that you’re lying down, they’re out of a(n)【C9】________. And as the saying【10】________. if you don’t use them, you lose them. For every week in bed, you lose about 1% of your bone density, making your bones more brittle and easy to【11】________. That’s why astronauts, who often go for months without gravity, exercise for at least 2 hours a day and【12】________calcium. In that same week, you also lose 1% of your muscle mass, 【13】________in your thighs, butt and shoulders, which you’re no longer using.
    【14】________, your brain isn’t a happy camper either. After all, you’ve been【15】________in the same room for months, staring at the same walls, the same spot on the ceiling, having the same experiences day after day. Not great for mental health, to say the【16】________. A study of pregnant women found that bed rest increased their【17】________of anxiety and depression, and some women reported feeling【C18】________ . out of control and imprisoned.
    So, a year of【19】________bed rest is not the relaxing paradise we’d all dream it’d be. Just keep in mind: There’s nothing wrong with a lazy Sunday morning, 【20】________you’re up and moving before Monday strikes.
【C15】
选项 A、absorbed
B、lost
C、stuck
D、humiliated
答案 C
解析 本句意思为：“毕竟，你________在同一个房间里好几个月了。盯着相同的墙壁和天花板上的同一位置，日复一日地拥有相同的体验。”文章讲的是如果一个人一直卧床不起会发生的情况，也就是困于一隅的状态，选项中，符合要求的只有stuck(无法摆脱困境的)，故选项[C]为答案。
