【解题思路】四项均为名词性短语,关键词分别为loss of identity、replaced or discarded、pressure …worldly cares、wealth and…respect。听音时应重点关注是否提到了这些关键信息,并将其与题干问题相对应。
【解析】在讲座中米勒博士说: “对于他们以及一些美国的老年人来说,他们所谓的‘黄金年代,有时并不是那么令人愉悦的,因为这段时期可能不仅意味着一个人身体状况的恶化,而且还意味着身份和自尊的缺失。”故可知正确答案为A。identity and self-worth是原词重现。选项B是根据后文设置的干扰项,选项C和D则与讲座的主旨相反。
