答案:
51 c 此旬的意思是,晚期病人对待死亡的态度不同,由“differ”一词可以判断空格处应选与后面“bad”一词意思相反的词。
52 B 从文章第一句话可以得知,全文谈论的是晚期病人,因此空格处应选“terminal”一词。
53 c 从前面的“answered”一词便可判断空格处应选“questions”一词。
54 A 从文章开始处的“differ”一词和接下来的“they did not hold the same views”便可判断空格处应选“differently”一词。
55 B 从前面的“such”一词可以断定空格处应选"as".词。
56 B 此句的意思是,许多受访者认为在睡眠中死去是种不错的死法。
57 D 在睡眠中死去的好处之一应是不知道死亡即将来临。
58 c 从搭配和语意两方面考虑,只有“considered"合适。
59 D此句的意思是,一些人认为……,而其他人则认为……,因此只有“while”合适。
60 A 此段主要讲的是受访者对家人的看法。
61 B 表示“死亡的时候”应用“at the time of death”。
62 B 此句的意思是,珍惜家人并非也意味着生命结束时希望有家人在身边。
63 c 表示对什么感到担心应用“concerns about something”。
64 A 一个人的病故除了给家人造成情感方面的冲击外,还会带来经济方面的影响。
65 D 空格处后面是一可由“that”一词引导的名词性从句,因此应选“that一词。
