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.

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、excessive
B、arrogant
C、confident
D、surplus
答案
C

confident"有信心的,自信的"。该段前面讲到当孩子们意识到父母的失望时,他们会真的以为自己缺乏什么,从而就会失去信心,那么父母就应该帮助孩子建立自信。而选项excessive"过多的,过分的,过度的",arrogant"傲慢的,自大的"和surplus"过剩的,多余的"填入后均不符合文意.
