选项 A、recognize
B、detect
C、discover
D、distinguish

答案D

解析 词汇辨析题。本句指出:如今青少年的"标准"文化包含那些非常肮脏的内容,以至于父母很难区别孩子究竟是心理问题还是只为追赶潮流。distinguish意为"区别,辨别",可与between搭配使用,表示区分事物的差别之意。recognize意为"认出,承认",没有辨别两者之间的区别之意,可以说recognize the differences between sth.and sth.,但后面不能直接跟between搭配使用;detect意为"察觉,发觉",discover意为"发现",与recognize类似,detect和discover均为及物动词,后面也不能直接和between搭配使用。
