选项 A、loving
B、strict
C、irresponsible
D、careless
答案A
解析 语义衔接题。文章首段提到90%犯了杀人罪的孩子的父母没有尽到抚养责任：虐待，忽视，情感剥夺。而本段中，作者通过对比引出问题：剩下的10%有爱他们的父母、家庭也不贫穷的少年杀人犯又是怎么回事儿呢?此外第三段首句中也出现了loving parents，因此可判断loving符合此处的语义关系。strict意为"严格的，严厉的"，文中首段谈到父母的虐待、忽视，与strict(严格，严厉)无关；irresponsible意为"不负责任的"，careless意为"粗心的"，本句与首段是顺承关系，不是对比关系，所以这两个词不符合句子语义逻辑关系。
