As I type these lines, my daughter, Harriet, who is 14, is on her iPhone skipping among no fewer than eight social media sites. My son, Penn, who is 15, will be asleep for hours yet. He was【C1】______all night with a friend playing two video games, in a jag fueled by his favorite foodlike【C2】______.
I like that my kids are comfortable and alert in the wired world. But increasingly I am【C3】______for them. It’s more【C4】______every day that screens have gradually stolen them from themselves. My wife, Cree, and I have【C5】______them to drift quite distantly into the online world, and we fear our casualness has been a【C6】______.
Each summer Cree and I resolve to【C7】______things back. This is【C8】______we draft rules for a new school year, strictures like: no laptops in bedrooms during the week; homework before screen time; no electronics after 10 p.m.. These rules invariably begin to【C9】______by Day 3. By Day 4, there is pleading, and the discreet slamming of doors. By Day 8, no one is sure what the【C10】______are anymore. We’re back where we started, and plump with fear.
This year it【C11】______to me we needed help. So I sat down with a new book that【C12】______assistance, and understanding. It is The Big Disconnect: Protecting Childhood and Family Relationships in the Digital Age, whose primary【C13】______, Catherine Steiner-Adair, is a clinical psychologist who teaches at Harvard Medical School. Her book is【C14】______on thousands of interviews, and it can be eloquent about the need to ration our children’ s computer time. Here the author has pinned me. I like to think I’ m a good father, perhaps even casually【C15】______in my better moments,【C16】______there is zero doubt that, without my iPhone in my palm, I feel I lose something since I’m fairly【C17】______. I must change my life a bit.
Cree and I are still hammering out our kids’ computer rules. We are trying to【C18】______in mind that we ’re not our kids’ best friends; we ’re their【C19】______. And we are【C20】______if there’s an app for fortitude.
【C12】
选项
A、applies
B、relates
C、offers
D、features
答案
C
解析
本句句意为“因此,我开始坐下来看一本——帮助和理解的新书”,本句中的assistance和上一句中的help呼应,既然前面说“需要帮助”,那么本句中的书就是“提供帮助”的,故C.offers“提供”为正确答案。applies“申请”,relates“有关”和features“是……的特色,使突出”表意均不及offers“提供”,故排除。
