American presidents seem to age before our eyes. But the common belief that high-office stress grays our leaders faster than【C1】________may be a myth, new research finds. In fact, the majority of American presidents have lived longer than【C2】________men of their times.
That’s not to【C3】________that chronic stress has no effect on a person’s lifespan, but【C4】________does high social standing. The findings【C5】________a body of research linking high status to better health:【C6】________, Oscar winners live longer than those who were only【C7】________; and the long life effect is also seen in Nobel Prize winners.
The new study, which was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association,【C8】________the dates of birth, inauguration and death of all 34 past presidents who died of natural causes. The【C9】________lifespan for these men should have been 68 years,【C10】________they’d aged twice as fast during their years in 【C11】________as the popular wisdom suggests they do.
【C12】________the study found, these presidents lived an average 73 years. And indeed, 23 of the 34 presidents who died of natural causes lived longer than【C13】________, compared with other men their age during their lifetimes.
Some presidents【C14】________an exceptionally long time: Gerald Ford died at 93.5 years, AND Ronald Reagan at 93.3. All【C15】________living presidents have already exceeded their life【C16】________, or are likely to do so.
So why do people【C17】________the top of the hierarchy fare better than those below?【C18】________to wealth, education and the best health care of their times would seem to be obvious factors【C19】________medical attention seems to have actually killed President Garfield, who died from a fatal【C20】________introduced by his doctors’ unclean treatment techniques after he was shot by an assassin.
【C10】
选项
A、if
B、lest
C、for
D、until
答案
A
解析
语义逻辑题。空格前后为完整的句子,前一句讲“他们的________寿命本应该是68岁”,空格后一句讲“他们加倍衰老”。从语义上讲,68岁的寿命是比较短的,加倍衰老才能使寿命不长,可见“他们加倍衰老”应该为“寿命本应该是68岁”的条件,故这里用引导条件状语从句的引导词if,选A项。B项lest“以免”引导目的状语从句,表示避免某种情况的发生。C项for作连词用时,通常引导原因状语从句。D项until表时间,引导时间状语从句。三者均不能表达前后分句之间内在的逻辑关系。
