【B20】

选项 A、ideal
B、image
C、stereotype
D、criterion

答案A

解析 考查名词辨析。空格处填入的名词是a narrowly defined standard of attractive的同位语:空格后that引导的定语从句对该词进行了解释说明,即“包含着对外形的不切实际的期望”。ideal作名词时意为“理想,看似完美的思想和标准”,符合文意,即狭隘的“美”的标准是不切实际的,是一种难以达到的完美标准。故选A.ideal。image意为“形象,印象”;stereotype意为“模式化观念或形象”;criterion意为“(评判或作决定的)标准,准则,原则”,均不符合题意。
