Ten years ago, Joe Allen began studying a diverse group of seventh graders near the University of Virginia, where he’s a professor. One of Allen’s main【C1】______was how these kids dealt with peer pressure, and how deeply they felt the pressure to【C2】______to what the crowd was doing.
According to every pop theory of【C3】______, peer pressure is peril. Being able to【C4】______it should be considered a sign of character strength. But a funny thing happened as Allen continued to follow these kids every year for the next 10 years: the kids who felt more peer pressure when they were 12 or 13 were turning out better.
【C5】______, they had much higher-quality relationships with friends, parents, and【C6】______partners. Their need to fit in, in the early teens, later【C7】______itself as a willingness to accommodate—a necessary【C8】______of all reciprocal relationships. The self-conscious kid who spent seventh grade convinced that everyone was watching her and learned to be attuned(与......合拍)to【C9】______changes in others’ moods.
Years down the road, that【C10】______sensitivity lead to empathy(移情)and social adeptness.
【C11】______, those kids who did not feel much peer pressure to smoke, drink, and shoplift in seventh grade didn’t turn out to be the independent-minded stars we’d【C12】______. Instead, what was notable about them was that【C13】______five years they had a much【C14】______GPA(grade point average). The kid who could say no to his peers turned out to be less engaged, all around, socially and academically. Basically, if he was so【C15】______that he didn’t care what his peers thought, he probably wasn’t【C16】______by what his parents or society expected【C17】______him, either.
Allen has found that vulnerability(弱点)to peers’【C18】______can be just as much of an asset as it is a【C19】______. Many of the pressures felt by teens pull them in a good【C20】______— they feel pressure to do well in school, pressure to not act childish, and pressure to be athletic.
【C19】
选项
A、responsibility
B、opportunity
C、utility
D、liability
答案
D
解析
考查名词辨析。填入的名词与asset(财富,即有利因素)对应,若考生能充分理解liability除了有“责任”的意思外,还可以表示“不利因素”,此题便迎刃而解了。responsibility“责任”;opportunity“机会”;utility“利用”。
