At some time in your life you may have a strong desire to do
something strange or terrible. However, chances are that you don’t
act your impulse, but let it pass instead. You know that to commit 【S1】______
the action is wrong in some way and that the other people will not 【S2】______
accept your behavior.
Perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomena of 【S3】______
taboo behavior is how it can change over the years within the same
society, how certain behavior and attitudes once considering taboo 【S4】______
can become perfectly acceptable and natural at another point in time.
Topics such as death, for example, were once considered so upset 【S5】______
and unpleasant that it was a taboo to even talk about them. Now with
the publication of important books such as On Death and Dying and
Learning to Say Goodbye, people have become more awared of the 【S6】______
importance of expressing feelings about death and, as a result, are more
willing to talk about this taboo subject.
One of the newest taboos in American society is the topic of fat. Like 【S7】______
many other taboos, fat is a topic that Americans talk about constantly.
It’s not taboo to talk about fat; it’s taboo to be fat. The "in" look is thin,
not fat. In the work world most companies prefer youthful-looking,
trim executives sell their image as well as their products to the 【S8】______
public. The thin look is associated to youth, vigor, and success. The 【S9】______
fat person, on the other hand, is thought of as lazy and lack in 【S10】______
energy, self-discipline, and self-respect. In an image-conscious
society like the U.S., thin is "in", fat is "out".
【S7】
选项
答案
Like一Unlike
解析
篇章错误。根据上下文可得知美国人经常谈论fat这一话题,所以这应该是与其他禁忌的不同之处,故此处应为Unlike。
