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.

    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】________.

    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.

【C1】

选项 A、without
B、despite
C、for
D、by

答案B

解析 上句提到男性要想长寿,就得有充足的睡眠,而本句提到女性长寿的条件是饮食多样化,吃含有维生素B6的食物和大量蔬菜。由此可以推断即便睡眠不好,女性仍能长寿,存在让步关系,选B项despite“尽管,不管”。A项without“没有”,without poor sleep“没有睡得不好”,即“睡得好”,不能体现出on the other hand表示的与前面男性情况的对比。C项for“因为”,因为睡眠不好而长寿,不符合逻辑。D项by“通过,经由”,表示方式,不能体现出让步。
