问题     A lot of people believe that television has a harmful
effect on children. A few years ago, the same criticisms were
made of the cinema. But despite child psychologists have spent a            【B1】______
great deal of time studying this problem, there is not many                 【B2】______
evidence that television brings up juvenile delinquency.                    【B3】______
    Few people in the modern world share the views of parents
a hundred years ago. In those days, writers for children
carefully avoided any reference on sex in their books but had               【B4】______
no inhibitions abut including scenes of violence.
    These days children are often brought up to think freely
about sex but violence is discouraged. Nevertheless, television
companies receive a large amount of letters every week                      【B5】______
complaining about programs with adult themes being shown
at times which a few young children may be awake. Strangely                 【B6】______
enough, the parents who complain about these programs see
no harm in cartoon films for children in which the villain,
usually either an animal or a monster, but in some cases a human
being, suffers one cruel punishment after the other.                        【B7】______
    The fact is that, which every parent knows, different                   【B8】______
things frighten different children. One child can read a ghost
story without having bad dreams while another can not bear
to have the book in his bedroom. In the same way, there is
little consistency about the things that terrify adults. Almost
everyone has a irrational private fear but while some of us                 【B9】______
can not stand the sight of spiders, for example, others are
frightened from snakes or rats.                                             【B10】______
选项
答案despite→although
解析 根据文意，原句的前后两句之间是让步关系，“尽管心理学家花了大量的时间来研究这个问题，但是没有充足的证据证明电视导致了青少年犯罪。”应使用引导让步状语从句的连接词though或although，而不是介词despite“尽管”。
