问题    This girl is almost without shelter. She may not realize it, but she’s more exposed to the world than she’s ever likely to be again. And it isn’t because she’s a girl it could be a boy. It could be you.
   But why is she "shelterless"? She’s got a place to live - quite a pleasant place by the look of it - and if shelter doesn’t mean a house, then what does it mean? When we say someone "lives a sheltered life" we don’t only mean that their house is comfortable. We mean that they’re protected from too many worries and troubles, that they live inn settled home, probably surrounded by friends and family, and that they don’t have to cope with the difficulties the world is fun of alone.
   Certainly no one would say that this girl was leading a sheltered life; she’s leaving home to earn her living in a strange city and live by herself in a bed - sitter. She may be just as well protected physically as a ’sheltered life’ person, but she’s lost all the other shelters in her life -family, friends, the home she grew up in, school, the groups she belonged to.  She’s on her own now and unless she’s very self- reliant, she’s likely to feel unhappy and insecure at times.
   A young person setting out on her own like this is between the two main kinds of shelter most of us spend our lives in. One is our parents’ home where we grow up, and the other is the home we make ourselves and where we bring up our own children. For most people the time they spend between or outside these two shelters is only a small part of their lives.

选项 A、has nowhere to live
B、will have problems because she’s a girl
C、is probably going to feel lonely
D、wants to live in her home again

答案C

解析 本题为综合推理题。文章介绍了女孩曾有过舒适的家,虽也许她未意识到自己真的有家,但当年轻人到达一定的年龄时,就得去体验独自的生活,更多的接触社会。由此推断,C项为正确答案。
