问题 Why does the author congratulate his male readers at the beginning of the passage?
What does Dr. Ross Cartmill mean by "the ostrich approach" (Line 1, Paragraph 9 )?

选项 A、A casual attitude towards one’s health conditions.
B、A new therapy for certain psychological problems.
C、Refusal to get medical treatment for fear of the pain involved.
D、Unwillingness to find out about one’s disease because of fear.

答案D

解析 语义题。根据题干信息定位到原文第九段。语义题的做法是根据相邻的句子判断所考查单词、词组或句子的意思。ostrich approach后面的句子对这个词组进行了解释,[D]选项与其构成同义替换,即原文中的scared of对应选项中的fear,would rather not know对应unwillingness to find out(不愿意发现),所以选[D]。
