问题     Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were. The young are better educated.
    They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom. They grow up more quickly and are not so【C1】________on their parents. They think more for themselves and do not blindly accept the ideals of their elders. Events which the older generation remembers【C2】________are nothing more than past history. This is as it should be. Every new generation is different from the one that preceded it.
    The old always assume that they know best for the simple reason that they have been around a bit longer. They don’t like to feel that their【C3】________are being questioned or threatened.

Why are they so unhappy and guilt-ridden in their personal lives, so【C5】________with mean ambitions and the desire to amass (积累) more and more material【C6】________?
    These are not questions the older generation can shrug off lightly. Traditionally, the young have turned to their elders for【C7】________. Today, the situation might be【C8】________. The old could learn a thing or two from their children. One of the biggest lessons they could learn is that enjoyment is not "【C9】________". Enjoyment is a principle one could apply to all aspects of life. It is surely not wrong to enjoy your work and enjoy your leisure; to【C10】________restricting inhibitions.
    A) disturbing  B) distinctively C) guidance  D) shed
    E) reliance    F) dependent     G) obsessed  H) sinful
    I) dissolving  J) vividly       K) reversed  L) brutal
    M) possessions N) values        O) rein
【C4】
选项
答案A
解析 此处需填入与questioning并列的动词，也是现在分词形式。根据上文questioned or threatened，及空格后的宾语their-complacency，可知填入的动词应与threatened语义接近，故选disturbing“扰乱，使不安”，表示年轻人质疑老一代人的设想，打击他们的满足感。
