问题     As if they needed any more excuse, new research suggests men need their sleep if they’re to live a long life. Women, on the other hand, can live long lives【C1】________poor sleep habits as long as they eat a diverse diet that includes vitamin B6 and plenty of vegetables. Vitamin B6 can be found in food such as meat, bananas and nuts.【C2】________other things, it allows the body to use and【C3】________energy from protein and carbohydrates.
    The findings come from a study led by Professor Mark Wahlqyist from Monash University which looked at how diet【C4】________sleep quality and mortality among elderly men and women. Professor Wahlqvist said sleep played a more【C5】________role in men’s mortality than women’s. "Poor sleep has been associated with increased disease rate and mortality. We found that for both【C6】________poor sleep was strongly【C7】________poor appetite and poor perceived health."
    But the researchers also found a【C8】________relationship between a diverse diet and sleep,【C9】________in women. "For women, good sleep only ensures a survival advantage【C10】________they had a diverse diet," said Professor Walhqvist. The study found women were almost twice as likely as men to sleep【C11】________. Women who were poor sleepers had a lower intake of vitamin B6 from food than those whose sleep was【C12】________"fair" or "good". Fair sleepers had lower iron intakes than good sleepers.

    Participants in the study who did not sleep well were also less able to chew, had poor appetites, and did less physical activity. "These characteristics could lead to lower overall dietary quality and food and nutrition intake, especially for vegetables, protein-rich foods, and vitamin B6. They may also result in the【C17】________of death.

【C19】
选项 A、requirements
B、guidelines
C、restrictions
D、practices
答案D
解析 填入的名词与healthy dietary构成短语，且能够表明对老年人睡眠的改善情况(improve sleep duration)。故选D项practices“行为，做法”，代入后指健康的饮食行为。A项requirements“要求”，光提出要求无法产生延长老年人睡眠时间的效果。B项guidelines“指引，指南”，饮食指南如果不运用与实践中也不会产生效果。C项restrictions“限制”，文章侧重讨论的是饮食多样化，限制饮食不一定对老年人的睡眠有帮助。
