It is often observed that the aged spend much time thinking and talking about their past lives,【C1】______a bout the future. These reminiscences(回忆)are not simply random or trivial memories,【C2】______is their purpose merely to make conversation. The old person’s recollections of the past help to【C3】______an identity that is becoming increasingly fragile(脆弱的):【C4】______any role that brings respect or any goal that might provide【C5】______to the future, the individual mentions their past as a reminder to listeners, that here was a life【C6】______living.【C7】______, the memories form part of a continuing life【C8】______, in which the old person【C9】______the events and experiences of the years gone by and【C10】______on the overall meaning of his or her own almost completed life.
As the life cycle【C11】______to its close, the aged must also learn to accept the reality of their own impending(即将发生的)death.【C12】______this task is made difficult by the fact that death is almost a【C13】______subject in the United States.

As adults many of us find the topic frightening and are【C15】______to think about it—and certainly not to talk about it【C16】______the presence of someone who is dying.

选项
A、ready
B、willing
C、liable
D、reluctant
答案
D
解析
此题属于语义搭配题。reluctant意为“勉强的,不情愿的”,此处句意为:死亡是个令人恐怖的话题,当然人们都不情愿去想它,故选项D) reluctant正确。其他三选项虽然都可与to do连用,但不符合句意:选项A) ready(乐意的);选项B) willing(愿意的);选项C) liable(有……倾向的),例如:We are all liable to make mistakes.
