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.

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.
【C12】
选项 A、confined
B、dedicated
C、corresponded
D、exposed
答案B
解析 本填空是出现在第三段分述信息之中，而第三段的首句作为总述句已经概括了本段的主线：菲律宾人是极其以家庭为中心的。后面自然要按照此主线倾向写下去。遵循这个判断，本填空选择一个动词，说明菲律宾人如何helping their children，我们在四个选项中一定要找出最强烈表达他们是心甘情愿地做出此行为的词汇。答案是选项B)dedicated(致力于，投身于)，其他都不如此选项准确。本题目也可以用对应成分分析法解题：因为本填空所在的句子是在讲菲律宾的父母如何helping their children；而本段之后给出了这样一个句子，在讲述孩子如何对待父母：the children are devoted to their parents, who often live nearby．这前后两个句子形成了明显的呼应关系，很明显，已知的线索词汇are devoted to(致力于，投身于)已经提示出，四个选项中与此已知线索词汇最相近的选项就是答案。“be dedicated to”与“be devoted to”几乎意思一样。
