问题     The family is the center of most traditional Asians’ lives. Many people worry about their families’ welfare, reputation, and honor. Asian families are often【C1】________, including several generations related by【C2】________or marriage living in the same home. An Asian person’s misdeeds are not blamed just on the individual but also on the family—including the dead【C3】________ .
    Traditional Chinese, among many other Asians, respect their elders and feel a deep sense of duty【C4】________them. Children repay their parents’【C5】________by being successful and supporting them in old age. This is accepted as a【C6】________part of life in China.【C7】________, taking care of the aged parents is often viewed as a tremendous【C8】________in the United States, where aging and family support are not【C9】________highly.【C10】________, in the youth-oriented United States, growing old is seen as a bad thing and many old people do not receive respect.
    Pilipinos, the most Americanized of the Asians, are【C11】________extremely family-oriented. They are【C12】________to helping their children and will sacrifice greatly for their children to get an education.【C13】________, the children are devoted to their parents, who often live nearby. Grown children who leave the country for economic reasons【C14】________ send large parts of their income home to their parents.
    The Vietnamese family【C15】________people currently【C16】________as well as the spirits of the dead and of the as-yet unborn. Any【C17】________or actions are done from family considerations, not individual desires. People’s behavior is judged【C18】________whether it brings shame or pride to the family. The Vietnamese do not particularly believe in self-reliance; in this way, they are the【C19】________of people in the United States. Many Vietnamese think that their actions in this life will influence their【C20】________ in the next life.
【C16】
选项 A、living
B、lively
C、alive
D、life
答案C
解析 本填空出现在一个关联排比结构中，我们首先可以通过分析与本填空对应的原文已知线索来确定本填空需要填入的意思，与本填空对应的线索为the spirits of the dead(死者)和the as-yet unborn(尚未出生者)，可以比较容易地确定本填空需要填入的概念为“生者，即现在活着的人”。因此，选项B)lively(活泼的)和D)life(人生，生活)都不合适。关键是在两个选项A)和C)中选择：选项A)living可以充当形容词表示“活着的、现存的，起作用的”，但此时这个词汇更多的是放在名词前面充当定语形容词，很少用作表语形容词，而此处的填空位于被修饰的名词people之后，就相当于后置定语从句：people(who are)currently…，因此语法和意义上均符合的只有选项C)alive(活着的)。
