Academy Award nominees who go home empty-handed may not have a shiny Oscar to show off, but they may turn out to be the bigger winners in the game of life.
According to a study published in British Medical Journal on December 21, Oscar-winning screenwriters are more successful, more productive, and more【C1】______than losing nominees; however, they die sooner by about four years.
Because success is usually linked to better health, "this is the first【C2】______ever that success is not associated with improved【C3】______," says Donald Redelmeier, lead author of the study.
Researchers【C4】______down information about every person who was ever nominated for an Oscar since the awards were first handed out 73 years ago.
To explain the【C5】______findings, he offers two theories. The first is the "work-to-death hypothesis."
According to Redelmeier, screenwriters are more【C6】______to lead unhealthy lifestyles, meaning they smoke more, exercise less, and work a lot of late-night hours, which translates into not enough sleep.
Screenwriters don’t have a boss to report to, which brings into【C7】______Redelmeier’s second explanation, the "party-hearty hypothesis."
"When you become a successful screenwriter, you gain status without daily accountability, and as a【C8】______your success may lead you to more alcohol, more parties, and more obesity," he says.
Redelmeier hopes his study will【C9】______how important it is to lead a healthy lifestyle.
"The bottom line," he says, "is that greater success may【C10】______lead to worse health if people fail to look after themselves."
A longevity B. flourish C. apt D. sometimes
E. tracked F. respected G. account H. miracle
I. occupation J. puzzling K. stress L. consequence
M. internal N. fairly O. restrained
【C5】
选项
答案
J
解析
此处应为形容词,修饰findings。第3段提到成功通常与身体健康紧密相连,而研究得出的结果相反。再结合本句中的explain,可知研究结果是“令人费解的”,因此答案为pnzzling。
