Growing up as an Asian in Britain is much more than a question of facing discrimination and trying to find a decent job — especially for a girl. She has to keep a delicate【S1】______between two cultures: her own and the British. Seetha Crishna has written a booklet called Girls of Asian Origin in Britain. In it the girls she is most concerned with are those who are【S2】______different because they have gone through the British educational system and have therefore emerged with an【S3】______which is distinct from that of their parents.
They speak English with regional English accents, they look【S4】______in Western clothes, and they do not necessarily choose to work in a factory. But they are unmistakably Asian and they are still held by their Asian【S5】______roots. At home, Asian girl may find herself conforming to the traditions and values of her parents, while at school she tends to【S6】______the attitudes and appetites of her British contemporaries.
As a result, Seetha Crishna found girls existing at two levels — and inclined to【S7】______both. "But unless they can successfully accept both, they will【S8】______constantly from one level to the other, feeling trapped between the two — at【S9】______cost to their own confidence and happiness."
For teenage girls, the main【S10】______is to match the social life which their parents expect them to live with that enjoyed by their schoolmates.
[A] cultural [F] definitely [K] balance
[B] issue [G] swing [L] considerable
[C] question [H] unfit [M] scarcely
[D] difficulty [I] identity [N] develop
[E] refuse [J] low [O] comfortable [br] 【S9】
选项
答案
L
解析
at…cost表示“以……代价”,cost前多用表示程度的形容词来修饰,[H]unfit、[J]low和[L]considerable入选。[H]unfit“不合适的;不能胜任”不用于修饰cost,故首先排除。由前面提到的。Feeling trapped between the two可知,她们的自信和幸福因此受到的影响很大,而不是很小,也就是说,代价是相当大的,故答案为[C] considerable“相当大的”。
