The way in which people use social space reflects their social relationships and their ethnic identity. Early immigrants to America from Europe brought with them a【S1】______style of living, which they retained until late in the 18th century. Historical records document a group-Oriented【S2】______, in which one room was used for eating, entertaining guests, and sleeping. People ate soups from a communal pot,【S3】______drinking cups, and used a common pit toilet. With the development of ideas about individualism, people soon began to shift to the use of【S4】______cups and plates; the eating of meals that included meat, bread, and vegetables【S5】______on separate plates; and the use of private toilets. They began to build their houses with separate rooms to【S6】______guests — living rooms, separate bedrooms for sleeping, separate work areas — kitchen, laundry room, and separate bathrooms.
In Mexico, the meaning and organization of domestic space is【S7】______different. Houses are organized around a patio, or courtyard. Rooms open onto the patio, where all kinds of【S8】______activities take place. Individuals do not have【S9】______bedrooms. Children often sleep with parents, and brothers or sisters share a bed emphasizing familial interdependence. Rooms in Mexican houses are locations for multiple activities that, in【S10】______, are rigidly separated in the United States.
A)outdoor B)shared C)slightly D)contrast
E)strikingly F)contained G)collective H)entertain
I)domestic J)contrary K)served L)existence
M)invite N)separate O)individual [br] 【S4】
选项
答案
O
解析
从这句话前半部分意思判断,应选择一个含有“个人的,一个人的”词义的词来修饰后面的“cups and plates”。individual(个人的)正合要求。此句意为:随着个人主义意识的发展,人们很快开始转向使用个人专用的杯盘。
