问题     The strange close understanding between twins is a familiar enough phenomenon. Often they seem to understand each other and share each other’s emotions to such an extent that one suspects some kinds of thought communication.
    What is not so widely known is that this special relationship often acts as brake on twins’ intellectual development. As they are partly isolated in their own private world, twins communicate less with adults than do other children. The verbal ability of a four-year-old twin is typically six months behind that of a non-twin. The problem can be particularly severe in a deprived home, a one-parent family for example, where there is little stimulation for children anyway.
    Such children, while capable of mutual comprehension in a private language, often remain incomprehensible to outsiders and thus at a severe educational disadvantage. The only solution to the problem, cruel though it may seem, is to separate the twins thus forcing them to acquire ordinary speech helped and guided by sympathetic parents and teachers.
"A deprived" family in Para. 2 may refer to________.

选项 A、the family where the parents are divorced
B、the family which is in poor condition
C、the family where the children are less educated
D、all of the above

答案D

解析 从文章第二段最后一句可知,在一个deprived family中,只有单亲家长,对儿童的教育不太好,家庭条件差。A、B、C都正确,故选D。
