In the 1920’s, but especially in the Depression of the 1930’s, the United States experienced a 【C1】______ birth rate. Then with the prosperity 【C2】______ by the Second World War and the economic boom that followed, young people married and 【C3】______ households earlier and began to 【C4】______ larger families than had their 【C5】______ during the Depression. Birth rates rose to 102 per thousand in 1946, 106.2 in 1950, and 118 in 1955. 【C6】______ economics was probably the most important 【C7】______ , it is not the only explanation for the baby boom. The increased value placed 【C8】______ the idea of the family also helps to 【C9】______ this rise in birth rates. The baby boomers began streaming 【C10】______ the first grade by the mid-1940s and became a 【C11】______ by 1950. The public school system suddenly found itself 【C12】______ The wartime economy meant that few new schools were built between 1940 and 1945. 【C13】______ , large numbers of teachers left their profession during that period for better-paid jobs else where.

With the baby boom, the focus of educators 【C18】______ turned toward the lower grades and back to basic academic skills and 【C19】______ . The system no longer had much 【C20】______ in offering nontraditional, new, and extra services to the older youths.
【C11】
选项
A、creek
B、flood
C、torment
D、torrent
答案
B
解析
名词语义题。根据句意(见上题),creek指“小溪”,气势不够;torment表示“痛苦”,不合题意; torrent表示“急流,狂风大雨”,强调凶险。flood则表示气势恢宏,连绵不绝,强调量大。因此选 B 。
