I hear many parents complain that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away, from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are holding one another’s hands for reassurance (放心).
They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But they all end up listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon (茧) into a larger cocoon.
It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a market for teenagers. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. This is a great barrier for the teenager who wants to, find his or her own path.
But the barrier is Worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to. a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come—with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.
According to the author, many teenagers think they are brave enough to act on their own, but in fact most of them______.
选项
A、have much difficulty understanding each other
B、lack confidence
C、dare not cope with any problems alone
D、are very much afraid of getting lost
答案
C
解析
本题考查考生对文章细节的理解。根据“Instead of striking out boldly on their own…for reassurance.”可知后半句话的意思应该是和前半句相反。前半句说很勇敢,所以后半句应该说实际上很怯懦。因此选择C不敢单独处理任何问题。A项互相理解有困难,与文意相反。B项缺乏自信,未提到。D项害怕迷路,未提到。
