Many parents who welcome the idea of turning off the TV and spending more time with the family are still worried that without TV they would constantly be on call as entertainers for their children. They remember (1)_____ of all sorts of things to do when they were kids, but their own kids seem different, less resourceful, (2)_____ When there’s nothing to do, these parents observe (3)_____, their kids seem unable to (4)_____ any thing to do besides turning on the TV.
One father, (5)_____, says "When I was a kid, we were always thinking up things to do, projects and (6)_____. We certainly never complained in an (7)_____ way to our parents, ’I have nothing to do!’" He compares this with his own children today: "If someone doesn’t entertain them, they’ll happily sit there in front of the (8)_____ all day."
There is one word for this father’s (9)_____: unfair. It is as if he were disappointed in them for not reading Greek though they have never studied the language. He deplores his children’s (10)_____ of inventiveness, as if the ability to play were something (11)_____ that his children are missing. In fact, while the tendency to play is built into the human species, the actual ability to play—to imagine, to invent, to elaborate on (12)_____ in a playful way—and the ability to gain (13)_____ from it, these are skills that have to be learned and developed.
Such disappointment, (14)_____, is not only (15)_____, it is also destructive. Sensing their parents’ disappointment, children come to believe that they are, indeed, lacking something, and that this makes them less worthy of (16)_____ and respect. Giving children the opportunity to develop new (17)_____, to enlarge their horizons and (18)_____ he pleasures of doing things on their own is, on the other hand, a way to help children develop a (19)_____ feeling about themselves as (20)_____ and interesting people.
选项
A、lack
B、curiosity
C、plea
D、liability
答案
A
解析
lack"缺乏,不足,没有"。从上两段的内容可以看出,孩子们除了看电视就无事可做,而一旦把电视关了,他们就只会去找父母,而不会自己想游戏来玩,因此在这位父亲眼里他的孩子是缺乏创造性的。而选项curiosity"好奇(心)",plea"恳求,请求"和1iability"责任"都与上文所讲述的内容无关。
