More sleep in old age, however, is【C4】______with better health, and most older people would feel better and more【C5】______if they slept for longer periods instead of the four or five hours per night, he said.

答案

解析
broken,上下文题。根据词性,此处应当填入形容词。根据下文“while younger people are better at sleeping 3 straight through the night.”司见年轻人可以一觉到天明,以此推测老年人正相反,睡眠断断续续,故选broken。
