They remember (1)_____ of all sorts of things to do when they were kids, but their own kids seem different, less resourceful, (2)_____ When there’s nothing to do, these parents observe (3)_____, their kids seem unable to (4)_____ any thing to do besides turning on the TV.
One father, (5)_____, says "When I was a kid, we were always thinking up things to do, projects and (6)_____. We certainly never complained in an (7)_____ way to our parents, ’I have nothing to do!’" He compares this with his own children today: "If someone doesn’t entertain them, they’ll happily sit there in front of the (8)_____ all day."
There is one word for this father’s (9)_____: unfair. It is as if he were disappointed in them for not reading Greek though they have never studied the language. He deplores his children’s (10)_____ of inventiveness, as if the ability to play were something (11)_____ that his children are missing. In fact, while the tendency to play is built into the human species, the actual ability to play—to imagine, to invent, to elaborate on (12)_____ in a playful way—and the ability to gain (13)_____ from it, these are skills that have to be learned and developed.
Such disappointment, (14)_____, is not only (15)_____, it is also destructive. Sensing their parents’ disappointment, children come to believe that they are, indeed, lacking something, and that this makes them less worthy of (16)_____ and respect. Giving children the opportunity to develop new (17)_____, to enlarge their horizons and (18)_____ he pleasures of doing things on their own is, on the other hand, a way to help children develop a (19)_____ feeling about themselves as (20)_____ and interesting people.
选项
A、zealously
B、identically
C、regretfully
D、militantly
答案
C
解析
regretfully"惆怅地,遗憾地"。该词在概念上与上文中的"worried"和下文中的"disappointed"形成关联,故为正确选项。而选项zealously"热心地"identically"同一地,相等地"和militantly"激进地,好斗地"填入后均不符合文意。
