A new study has drawn a bleak picture of cultural inclusiveness reflected in the children’s literature available in Australia. Dr. Helen Adam from Edith Cowan University’s School of Education 【C1】 ________ the cultural diversity of children’s books. She examined the books 【C2】 ________ in the kindergarten rooms of four day-care centers in Western Australia. Just 18 percent of 2,413 books in the total collection contained any 【C3】 ________ of non-white people. Minority cultures were often featured in stereotypical or tokenistic ways, for example, by 【C4】 ________ Asian culture with chopsticks and traditional dress. Characters that did represent a minority culture usually had 【C5】 ________ roles in the books. The main characters were mostly Caucasian. This causes concern as it can lead to an impression that whiteness is of greater value.
Dr. Adam said children formed impressions about ’difference’ and identity from a very young age. Evidence has shown they develop own-race 【C6】 ________ from as young as three months of age. The books we share with young children can be a valuable opportunity to develop children’s understanding of themselves and others. Books can also allow children to see diversity. They discover both similarities and differences between themselves and others. This can help develop understanding, acceptance and 【C7】 ________ of diversity. Census data has shown Australians come from more than 200 countries. They speak over 300 languages at home. Additionally, Australians belong to more than 100 different religious groups. They also work in more than 1,000 different occupations. "Australia is a multicultural society. The current 【C8】 ________ promotion of white middle-class ideas and lifestyles risks 【C9】 ________ children from minority groups. This can give white middle-class children a sense of 【C10】 ________ or privilege," Dr. Adam said.
A) alienating F) investigated K)secondary
B) appreciation G) overwhelming L) superiority
C) bias H) portraying M) temperament
D) fraud I) representation N) tentative
E) housed J) safeguarded O) threshold [br] 【C8】
选项
答案
G
解析
形容词辨析题。空格前为形容词current,空格后为名词promotion,因此空格处应填入形容词和current一起作定语修饰promotion。第一段提到,2413本童书中,只有18%的书包含了对非白人的描述。在书中,代表少数族裔文化的人物通常扮演次要角色,主角一般是白人。由此可知,现有的童书对白人的观念和生活方式进行了过多宣扬,G)overwhelming “巨大的;压倒性的”符合语境,故为答案。
