At some time in your life you may have a strong desire to do
something strange or terrible. However, chances are that you don’t
act your impulse, but let it pass instead. You know that to commit 【S1】________
the action is wrong in some way and that the other people will not 【S2】________
accept your behavior.
Perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomena of 【S3】________
taboo behavior is how it can change over the years within the same
society, how certain behavior and attitudes once considering taboo 【S4】________
can become perfectly acceptable and natural at another point in time.
Topics such as death, for example, were once considered so upset 【S5】________
and unpleasant that it was a taboo to even talk about them. Now with
the publication of important books such as On Death and Dying and
Learning to Say Goodbye, people have become more awared of the 【S6】________
importance of expressing feelings about death and, as a result,
are more willing to talk about this taboo subject.
One of the newest taboos in American society is the topic of fat. Like 【S7】________
many other taboos, fat is a topic that Americans talk about constantly.
It’s not taboo to talk about fat; it’s taboo to be fat. The "in" look is thin,
not fat. In the work world, most companies prefer youthful-
looking, trim executives sell their image as well as their products to the 【S8】________
public. The thin look is associated to youth, vigor, and success. The 【S9】________
fat person, on the other hand, is thought of as lazy and lack in 【S10】________
energy, self-discipline, and self-respect. In an image-conscious society
like the U.S., thin is "in", fat is "out".
【S5】
选项
答案
upset→upsetting
解析
词汇错误。upset做形容词的时候意为“某人感到不安的”,而topics应该是“让人感到不安的”,故应把upset改为upsetting。
