试题分析:本文是一篇调查研究类的文章,变老可能听上去不那么令人兴奋,但是最近的研究给老年人带来了一些好消息。研究发现,老年人的生活压力比年轻人小很多,幸福感也很高。
【1】exciting 考查形容词。系动词Sound后面接形容词,主语为old age用exciting。
【2】worried考查形容词。Be worried about doing sth 为固定搭配,为...感到担忧,人们担忧自己会变老,用worried。
【3】a考查冠词。Survey是单数,用冠词a。
【4】them考查代词。代 340,000 adults 的实验对象,是复数,用them。
【5】sadness考查名词。与 happiness, worry并列,词性相同,用名词sadness。
【6】highest考查最高级。后面没有than之类的用比较级的提示词,并且根据 among adults可知是在许多的成年人中,应该用最高级,用highest。
【7】sharply考查副词。修饰动词drop,故用副词sharply。
【8】was考查时态。全文都是过去时,用过去时态was。
【9】in考查介词。In one’s seventies 为固定搭配,在某人七十多岁时,用in。
【10】However考查连词。前面提到男人和女人的感情发展是一样的,但是女人普遍比男人忧虑的更多,中间是转折关系,用However。
