问题     Are teens and young adults more narcissistic (自恋的) today than in the past? That’s the view of a California researcher who studies【1】people.
    In her new book, The Narcissism【2】: Living in the Age of Entitlement, psychologist Jean Twenge of San Diego State University and【3】W. Keith Campbell of the University of Georgia say research shows【4】young people today have "narcissistic traits" than in【5】generations. Such traits, Twenge says, include a very.【6】and inflated sense of self, which is【7】by a preoccupation with MySpace, Facebook and YouTube.
    "We’ve been on this self-admiration cultural【8】for a long time," Twenge says.【9】Twenge’s take on today’s young people isn’t universal. Studies by other researchers, including Canadian【10】Dr. Kali of the University of Western Ontario, have used the same data but found【11】results. "They put a different【12】on it," Kali says.
    Twenge’s studies have found more narcissistic traits and a【13】rate of increase among college students today, but Kali found that students’ narcissism was【14】greater in 2006 than in 1976. Twenge’s most recent paper studied the same data as Kali--more than 20 000 college students from 2002 to 2007.【15】researchers used the Narcissistic Personality Inventory to measure narcissistic【16】and findings by both have been【17】in peerreviewed journals.
    Twenge’s book【18】just a month after The Mirror Effect : How Celebrity Narcissism Is Seducing America, a book co-written by behavioral【19】Drew Pinsky,【20】suggested that a celebrity-obsessed culture is causing more narcissism.
选项 A、primary
B、original
C、previous
D、initial
答案C
解析 根据than前面的today可知，此处是拿现在和过去作对比，所以generations前面选择一个能够表达“先前的”释义的形容词，故[C]正确。[A] primary表示重要性时意为“首要的”，用法举例：These are my primary goals．这些是我的主要目标。[B] original表示“新的”或者是“原创的，最初的”，用法举例：We need a man of original ideas．我们需要一个有独创思维的人。[D] initial表示“首先发生的”，用法举例：Her initial reaction was surprise．她最初的反应是吃惊。
