Advancing age means losing your hair, your waistline and your memory, right? Dana Denis is just 40 years old, but【C1】______ she’s worried about what she calls "my rolling mental blackouts. " "I try to remember something and I just blank out," she says.
You may【C2】______ about these lapses, calling them " senior moments " or blaming " early Alzheimer’s (老年痴呆症) ". Is it an inescapable fact that the older you get, the【C3】______ you remember? Well, sort of. But as time goes by, we tend to blame age【C4】______ problems that are not necessarily age-related.
"When a teenager can’t find her keys, she thinks it’s because she’s distracted or disorganized," says Paul Gold. "A 70-year-old blames her【C5】______ " In fact, the 70-year-old may have been【C6】______ things for decades.
In healthy people, memory doesn’t worsen as【C7】______ as many of us think. "As we【C8】______ , the memory mechanism isn’t【C9】______ ," says psychologist Fergus Craik. "It’s just inefficient."
The brain’s processing【C10】______ slows down over the years, though no one knows exactly【C11】______ Recent research suggests that nerve cells lose efficiency and【C12】______ there’s less activity in the brain. But, cautions Barry Gordon, "It’s not clear that less activity is【C13】______ A beginning athlete is winded (气喘吁吁) more easily than a【C14】______ athlete. In the same way,【C15】______ the brain gets more skilled at a task, it expends less energy on it. "
There are【C16】______ you can take to compensate for normal slippage in your memory gears, though it【C17】______ effort. Margaret Sewell says: "We’re a quick-fix culture, but you have to【C18】______ to keep your brain【C19】______ shape. It’s like having a good body. You can’t go to the gym once a year【C20】______ expect to stay in top form."
【C7】
选项
A、swiftly
B、frequently
C、timely
D、quickly
答案
D
解析
副词辨析。本句的意思是“在健康的人中,记忆力的减退不会像我们许多人想的那样快”。四个选项中C项timely(及时的,适时的)为形容词,可直接排除;B项frequently意为“频繁地”,不合题意;A项swiftly意为“迅速地,敏捷地”,强调动作敏捷,和worsen搭配不当;D项quickly意为“快速地”,符合题意,是正确答案。
