Suddenly, everywhere you look, everyone’s taking cold showers. Not literally—that would be weird— but there’s no mistaking a lifestyle trend when you see one. They’re【C1】______in a new book, What Doesn’t Kill Us, which【C2】______the exploits of the Dutch extreme-cold enthusiast (狂热者) Wim Hof, who once spent nearly two hours in an ice bath. In The New York Times, the novelist Ben Dolnick reports that cold showers changed his " entire【C3】______toward the outside world". The benefits include everything from【C4】______immunity to slowing ageing and fighting depression. It’s environmentally better, too, so you’ll feel the warm glow of being moral.

Finding myself sleepy at 5 p. m. —having woken with the baby at 5 a. m. —I tried taking naps,【C6】______that plan, and then started jumping under icy water instead. It worked【C7】______, helping me squeeze out a few more hours of energy. When I took another cold shower before bed, I slept better, too.

It’s hard to avoid the conclusion that behind the desire to【C9】______over extreme cold, there’s a desire to somehow conquer yourself. Since both participants in this wrestling match, as you may have noticed, are you. The far more likely result is just more【C10】______conflict.
A) abandoned I) inner
B) boosting J) intelligently
C) brilliantly K) overcome
D) charts L) recommended
E) disposition M) resents
F) exciting N) self-punishing
G) goal O) triumph
H) initial
【C4】
选项
答案
B
解析
分析句子结构可知,介词from后面应跟名词或动名词,空格后的slowing和fighting均为动名词,根据平行原则,空格处也应填入动名词。该句意为“洗冷水浴的好处有很多,包括______免疫力、减缓衰老和抵御抑郁症。”备选项中只有boosting“促进”符合题意,故为答案。
