问题    A society should be judged by how it treats its children. A country that fails to【C1】______its children is endangering its future. And that’s why we should all be【C2】______by the crisis of mental health among Britain’s girls and boys — and the【C3】______lack of support to overcome it.
   Nearly a quarter of a million young people are receiving specialist health care for mental distress,【C4】______from depression to eating disorders.【C5】______, it is a crisis that is getting worse: Childline reports a doubling in five years of the number of children contemplating suicide. But the services simply aren’t there to support them. A【C6】______finds that seven【C7】______10 specialist nurses believe mental health services for children and adolescents are【C8】______, and 43% believe the services are actually getting worse. Overwhelmingly, a lack of nurses and delays in appointments are【C9】______as the main causes. Life is being made harder for children by both government policy and ever【C10】______attitudes and expectations. The children will suffer, so will our country’s future.
【C3】

选项 A、chronic
B、athletic
C、therapeutic
D、idiomatic

答案A

解析 chronic:慢性的,长期的;athletic:擅长运动的,竞技的;therapeutic:治疗的;idiomatic:地道的,符合习惯的。…the chronic lack of support to overcome it 的意义是“长期以来对儿童克服危机的支持不够”。要注意该句中lack的用法,该词既是名词,也是及物动词,在国内学生当中出错率极高,尤其是be lack of结构,到了泛滥的地步。下面这些句子都错误使用了lack:We are lack of fresh water. (应该是We lack fresh water. )Lacking of exercise leaves me overweight. (应该是Lack of exercise…)Competent teachers are lack here. (应该是lacking。)
