问题 资料：Britain is facing a “crisis of fatherlessness” in which almost half of all children born today will not be living with both parents by the time they are 15, the new chief executive of the thinktank founded by Iain Duncan Smith has warned.Andy Cook, who runs the Centre for Social Justice, which is chaired by the former cabinet minister, argued that regular contact with a father figure reduced criminal behavior in children and boosted cognitive skills including reasoning and language development.Cook claimed there was too much of a “throwaway culture” to parenting, adding: “Over the last 40 years, the meteoric rise in family breakdown has blighted （损害） the lives of the poorest children the most. The relationship children have with their fathers affects their self-esteem, how well they do at school, even whether they are able to form happy, long-lasting relationships as adults.”Cook said it was inevitable that relationships would not always work out, but argued that a culture shift could reduce the prevalence of family breakdown, and stressed the importance of parenting once couples had separated.“We need a societal shift in perspective from regarding fathers as a dispensable extra to recognizing their value as a crucial pillar in a child’s life.” he said.Cook argued policy ought to be focused on longer-term thinking, and emphasizing the potential impact on children of troubled relationships, stressing the disproportionate effect on the poorest. His thinktank’s figures show that by the age of five 48% of children in low-income families are not living with both parents, compared with 16% of children in middle-to higher-income families.He said his work would also focus on four other factors that contributed to poverty: educational failure, worklessness, problem debt and addiction. Looking only at income levels skewed policy, he added. Despite controversy in the education sector about the growth of grammar schools, Cook argued that there was evidence they could be successful if headteachers tried to find the most talented children from poorer families.The former chief executive of the Centre for Social Justice, Christian Guy, who became the PM's poverty adviser, said the hope of the previous strategy was to “start a parenting revolution——for too long politicians looked away as family instability and poor child development blighted lives in the poorest neighbourhoods”.“Parents want what's best for their children, but great advice tends to be the preserve of the better off. This has to change if we want to see children starting school ready to lead to communicate and forming healthy relationships”.We can infer that the “throwaway culture” may______.A.result in the rapid increase of family breakdownB.undermine the relationship between father and childC.affect self-esteem of kids from the poorest familyD.transmit the traditional role of fathers in the family
选项 A.result in the rapid increase of family breakdown
B.undermine the relationship between father and child
C.affect self-esteem of kids from the poorest family
D.transmit the traditional role of fathers in the family

第3段Cook claimed there was too much of a “throwaway culture” to parenting, adding: “Over the last 40 years, the meteoric rise in family breakdown has blighted the lives of the poorest children the most. The relationship children have with their fathers affects their self-esteem, how well they do at school, even whether they are able to form happy, long-lasting relationships as adults.” 库克声称，养育子女中存在着太多的“丢弃文化”，并补充说：“在过去的40年里，家庭破裂的迅速增长最大程度地摧毁了最贫困儿童的生活。这些孩子与父亲的关系会影响他们的自尊，他们在学校的表现如何，甚至是否能够像成年人一样形成快乐持久的关系。“
本题的问题是“我们可以推断‘丢弃文化’______” 。选项A 意为“导致家庭破裂迅速增加”；选项B意为“破坏父子关系”；选项C意为“影响最贫困家庭的孩子的自尊”；选项D 意为“传播父亲在家庭中的传统角色”。根据主题句，选项A是造成“丢弃文化”出现的背景，而非“丢弃文化”产生的结果，出现本末倒置，故错误；选项B，根据主题句，可以推测“丢弃文化”会破坏父子之间关系，故正确；选项C与主题句中一致，可以直接得出，不需要推断，故错误；选项D与主题句意思相悖，“丢弃文化”会造成父子隔离，不利于传播父亲角色，故错误。
