The typical pre-industrial family not only had a good many children, but numerous other dependents as well — grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins. Such "extended" families were suited for survival in slow paced【C1】______societies. But such families are hard to【C2】______. They are immobile. Industrialism demanded masses of workers ready and able to move off the land in pursuit of jobs, and to move again whenever necessary. Thus the extended family【C3】______shed its excess weight and the so-called "nuclear" family emerged — a stripped-down, portable family unit【C4】______only of parents and a small set of children.
This new style of family, far more【C5】______than the traditional extended family, became the standard model in all the industrial countries. Super-industrialism, however, the next stage of eco-technological development,【C6】______even higher mobility. Thus we may expect many among the people of the future to carry the streamlining process, a step further by remaining children, cutting the family down to its more【C7】______components, a man and a woman. Two people, perhaps with matched careers, will prove more efficient at navigating through education and social status, through job changes and geographic relocations, than the ordinarily child-cluttered family. A【C8】______maybe the postponement of children, rather than childlessness. Men and women today are often torn in【C9】______between a commitment to career and a commitment to children. In the future, many【C10】______will side aside this problem by deferring the entire task of raising children until after retirement.
A)transplant B)solution C)gradually D)transport E)elemental
F)conflict G)continually H)mobile I)couples J)agricultural
K)including L)compromise M)requires N)primary O)consisting [br] 【C7】
选项
答案
E
解析
此处应填形容词,用来修饰名词components。文中说明家庭被减缩到由男人和女人组成。选项中的E)elemental“基本的,本质的”,而N)primary“主要的,最早的”,原文强调的是男人和女人是一个家庭最basic的组成部分,故E)更符合原文意思。
