Dear David,
I’ m glad you would like to share your feelings with me. It’ s hardly surprising that your feelings of not being "grown up" have come on strongly at this point in your life, just before you’ re about to become a father. I think nearly every sensitive about-to-be-parent must have these occasional feelings of self-doubt and inadequacy (不适) before the birth and it would be most unusual if you didn’ t share them.
It’ s difficult, honestly, to feel grown-up unless you have something less grown-up to relate to. The boss with a hen-pecking wife may feel like a seven-year-old when he’ s at home. But as he walks through the office door, and knows he’ s going to be surrounded by staff looking to him for advice, he grows into a fully mature(成熟的)man. And I think it’ s a mistake to imagine that we all feel, as we age, a kind of progression of states, from the baby to the adult. Most people feel, on Tuesday, a-bout three years old, and on Wednesday, around 80.
There’ s a common remark that "all men are little boys" , but it’ s not true. It’ s more true that men often behave like little boys. But nearly all people, at some moments in their lives, are able to be great mature.
Once your baby arrives, you’ll soon feel less childlike, or rather, less often.
When your child tries to put its fingers into the electric plug, the adult in you will rise up to prevent it.
You’ll see you have very little in common with a needy child, particularly if it’ s looking to you for comfort and support.
Comfort yourself, David. Hope my advice will be helpful and good luck to you and your little one.
Sincerely Yours,
Miss Advice
From Paragraph 2, we can learn that people’ s sense of maturity______.
选项
A、will increase with age
B、is obviously seen at home
C、changes with different situations
D、becomes stronger with familiar people
答案
C
解析
根据第二段“It’s difficult,honestly,to feel grown-up unless you have something less grown-up to relate to.”可知作者认为当你面对一些不成熟的事物时,你就会感觉自己成熟。通过下文举的例子说明人们的成熟感会随着处境的不同而变化。故选C。
