问题         In the Harry Potter films, Hermione Granger is better than her male friends and is considered the brightest pupil in her grade. Isn’t it often the same in schools of our real world? A great many boys fall behind their female classmates.
        " It’s surprising but true that most of the top students have been girls since the primary school. Girls are class leaders, club presidents and the top ones in exams," said Wang Feixuan, 15, who studies at a Chengdu school. By any measure, Wang herself is a high achiever. She is a top student, a team leader in her school’ s sports club and a winner in many competitions.
        But why do so many girls outperform their male peers?
        In Sun Yunxiao’s latest book Save Our Boys, he points out that the education system is " more suited to girls, who are good at memorizing and like to sit quietly and read". Yet he also says that girls have to do so much more when they compete with males for honours, top universities and good jobs. They can feel great pressure nearly every day.
        This seems to be the same in most countries in the world. Young women in the United States are also reported to feel the same pressure to be perfect.
        "Let’s look at what we ask our teenage girls for," says an American professor Stephen Hinshaw in an interview. He thinks that it’s no longer enough that a girl does well in school and becomes a caring friend. Girls see images of impossible perfection on TV, on the Internet, and everywhere. Today’s young women must be good learners, good athletes, and fill their after-school lives with other activities. But they’re also asked to have the styles and looks of popular stars. "Be pretty, sweet and nice. Be athletic, competitive and get straight. Be impossibly perfect." Stephen Hinshaw sums up.
The passage suggests that___________.

选项 A、our society asks far too much of teenage girls
B、teenage girls shouldn’ t be so perfect at school
C、boys are always lazy ones rather than girls
D、American girls have less pressure than Chinese girls

答案A

解析 根据最后一段可知,如今的女生不但要漂亮,还要学习好、运动好、有竞争力,总之要达到不可能的完美。由此可推知,当代社会对女生要求过多,她们面临着很大的压力,所以A项正确。B、C两项在文中并未提及,因此可排除。根据第五段最后一句“Young women in the United States are also reported to feel the same pressure to be perfect.”可知,美国的年轻女性也面临着同样的压力,所以D项不正确。故选A。
