However, the study shows that this difference【C2】______with age, and the trend reverses【C3】______the age of 60.
    At this age men seem to experience a notable【C4】______in the quality of working life, the researchers said.【C5】______, the report said that women at or about the age of 60 report【C6】______of an increase in their quality of working life, even though they would normally be nearer【C7】______. The result is that men for the first time have become【C8】______at work than women. The researchers say the reason【C9】______the pre-retirement bounce among men is not clear,【C10】______suggest a range of different explanations. As men often have jobs which【C11】______greater flexibility, this enables them to【C12】______down and reduce their stress as they head【C13】______retirement.

【C14】
选项 A、rarely
B、typically
C、likely
D、subsequently
答案B
解析 副词辨析题。由or可知，本句意在列举另外一种上文所提到的“不同的解释”，即解释60岁左右的男员工幸福感更强的另一种原因。结合上句出现的often可知，本句也应表达一种“经常”的情况，故typically“通常”符合句意。rarely“很少，几乎不”和subsequently“随后”均不符合句意；likely后面常使用不定式或从句结构。
