At the age of twelve, the human body is at its most vigorous. It has 【C1】_____to reach its full size and strength, and its owner his or her full intelligence; but at this age the 【C2】_____ of death is least.
Earlier, we were infants and young children, and 【C3】_____ more vulnerable; later, we shall undergo a(n) 【C4】_____ loss of our vigour and resistance which, though imperceptible at first, will finally become so 【C5】_____ that we can live no longer, however well we look after ourselves, and however well society, and our doctors, look after us. This decline in vigour with the passing of time is called ageing.
Normal people 【C6】_____ to forget this process unless and until they are 【C7】_____ of it. We are so familiar with the fact that man ages, 【C8】_____ people have for years assumed that the 【C9】_____ of losing vigour with time, of becoming more likely to die the older we get, was something 【C10】_____. Most animals we commonly observe in fact age as we do, 【C11】_____ given the chance to live long enough; and mechanical systems like a wound watch, or the sun, will 【C12】_____ energy someday. But these are not 【C13】_____ to what happens when man ages. A run-down watch is still a watch and can be 【C14】_____. An old watch, by 【C15】_____, becomes so worn and unreliable that it eventually is not worth mending. But a watch could never repair itself—it does not consist of 【C16】_____ parts, only of metal, which wears away by 【C17】_____.
We could, at 【C18】_____, repair ourselves—well enough, at least, to 【C19】_____ all but the most instantly fatal illnesses and accidents. Between twelve and eighty we gradually lose this power, an illness which at twelve would knock us over, at eighty can knock us 【C20】_____ .
【C13】
选项
A、analogous
B、pertinent
C、relevant
D、subject
答案
A
解析
考查形容词词义的辨析。根据上文可知these指的是“大多数动物的衰老过程和机械装置如手表,或太阳的能源耗尽过程”,be analogous to“相似的,类似的”符合文意,故选A。be pertinent to“有关的,中肯的,恰当的”;be relevant to“有关的,切题的”;be subject to“受某事或某人支配,必须服从于某事或某人”,这三项均不符合文意。排除。
