The trend toward smaller families may not be as modern as we think. Although women gatherers had four or five children, only two typically survived childhood — the number found in the【B1】______American family today. Even our style of【B2】______children is starting to parallel hunting gathering communities, in which girls and boys【B3】______play together from a young age, and consequently experiment at sex earlier and engage in【B4】______marriages. Clearly, we’ve moved away from the agricultural custom of arranged marriages and insulating girls at home to【B5】______their virginity.
Moreover, the home is no longer the "place of production", as it was in farm days. We don’t make our soap, grow our vegetables and kill chickens for the dinner table. Instead, we hunt and gather in the grocery store and return to our "home base" to consume the food we have collected. No wonder we are so in love with fast food. It probably【B6】______an eating strategy our primate relatives adopted over 50 million years ago.
There’s no mistaking the trend: Humans are once again【B7】______. Husband and wife are no longer bound to a single plot of land for their【B8】______. and women are back in production as well as reproduction. As we view the future, there’s every reason to believe the sexes will enjoy the kind of equality that is a function of our birthright. By equality, I mean a more【B9】______division of power — not that our roles will converge. Alike men and women have never been and never will be. Very simply, we think【B10】______. which is again tied to our long hunting gathering heritage. [br] 【B5】
选项
答案
preserve
解析
空前的不定式to表明,本空应填一原形动词。前面讲现在孩子们很早就开始接触性,紧接着说这与过去的习俗不同,过去一般都是包办婚姻,并把女孩关在家里,而这样做的目的应该是“保护,保持”她们的virginity(贞操)。preserve意为“保持,保护”。
