It’ s not difficult to understand our desire for athletes to be heroes. On the surface, at least, athletes display a vital and indomitable spirit; they are gloriously alive【B1】______their bodies. And sports do allow us to【B2】______acts that can legitimately be described as【B3】______, thrilling, beautiful, even noble. In a (n)【B4】______complicated and disorderly world, sports are still an arena in which we can regularly witness a certain kind of【B5】______.
Yet there’ s something of a【B6】______here, for the very qualities a society【B7】______to seek in its heroes— selflessness, 【B8】______consciousness, and the like—are precisely the【B9】______of those which are needed to【B10】______a talented but otherwise unremarkable neighborhood kid into a Michael Jordan. To become a star athlete, you have to have an extremely competitive【B11】______and you have to be totally focused on the development of your own physical skills. These qualities【B12】______well make a great athlete,【B13】______they don’t necessarily make a great person.
On top of this, our society reinforces these【B14】______by the system it has created to produce athletes a system characterized by【B15】______responsibility and enormous privilege.
The athletes themselves suffer the【B16】______of this system. Trained to measure themselves perpetually 【B17】______the achievements of those around them, many young athletes develop a sense of sociologist Walter Schafer has【B18】______ "conditional self-worth". They learn very quickly that they will be accepted by the important figures in their lives—parents, coaches and peers as long as they are【B19】______as "winner".
Unfortunately they become【B20】______and behave as if their athletic success will last forever.
【B7】
选项
A、tries
B、risks
C、tends
D、endeavors
答案
C
解析
考查语境理解与动词辨析。空格处所在句子意为“因为社会______在运动员身上寻找品质:无私…”。根据语境可知,此处所表达的为一种倾向,因此C.tends“倾向,趋向”正确。try意为“尝试,试图”;risk意为“冒险”;endeavor意为“努力,奋斗”,均不符合文意。
