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”.What does Christian Guy imply in the last paragraph?A.Politicians should call on a parenting revolution.B.Government may have failed to keep families stable.C.Only rich parents can offer their children what's the best.D.Parenting advice is often inaccessible to poor families.
选项 A.Politicians should call on a parenting revolution.
B.Government may have failed to keep families stable.
C.Only rich parents can offer their children what's the best.

【主题句】
倒数第1段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”. 社会正义中心前首席执行官Christian Guy，成为PM的贫困顾问，他表示，之前战略的希望是“开始一场育儿革命——政治家们很久以来对于家庭不稳定和最贫困街区儿童凄惨成长生活不太关注。”“父母们希望给孩子们最好的，但是这些好的建议往往被富裕群体所独享。如果我们想看到适学儿童做好沟通准备和建立健康的关系，这必须改变。”
本题的问题是“Christian Guy在最后一段中暗示了什么？” 选项A 意为“政治家应该呼吁育儿革命”；选项B意为“政府可能未能保持家庭稳定”；选项C意为“只有富有的父母才能为子女提供最好的”；选项D 意为“贫困家庭通常无法获得育儿建议”。根据主题句，Christian Guy之前的战略希望是发动育儿革命，引起政治家们的关注，而并非是让政治家呼吁育儿革命，故错误；选项B，主题句只是提到“政治家们忽视家庭不稳定”，并不能推测“政府未能保持家庭稳定”，过于牵强，故错误；选项C，根据主题句“父母们希望给孩子们最好的”，不能推测出该选项，故错误；选项D与主题句中“好的育儿建议被富裕群体独享”一致，故正确。
