单选题

【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】此题属于语意搭配题。reflect on/upon表示“反省,反思”,例如:The old man reflected on the changes that had taken place since his youth.此处需一个动词与下文的meaning搭配,因此只有思考生命的意义符合逻辑,故选项[C]reflects正确。选项[A]reckons(on)表示“指望,盼望”,例如:I'm reckoning on your continued support.另外,reckon in(把…计算在内);reckon up(结算,估计);reckon with(处理,考虑到),如:reckon with the possibility;选项 [B]counts(on)表示“指望”,选项[D]conceive表示“构想出,认为”,相当于imagine或invent,例如:He conceives of society as a jungle where only the fittest survive.本句的宾语是老年人快结束的一生的意义,因此不可能是“想像”的,故选项[D]不符合题意。
