I’m usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any of these statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, I was struck by a report which concluded that today’s children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago.
Why are America’s kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physical isolation-- brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among other things--and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.
Given that we can’ t turn the clock back, adults can still do plenty to help the next generation cope.
At the top of the list is nurturing a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No child is an island. Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against stress.
To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers. Your family will thank you latex, They will have more time for face-to-face relationships, and they will get more sleep.
Limit the amount of virtual violence your children are exposed to. It’s not just video games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.
Keep your expectations for your children reasonable. Many highly successful people never attended Harvard or Yale.
Make exercise part of your daily routine. It will help you cope with your own anxieties and provide a good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesn’t have to ruin your life. [br] What does the author mean when he says, "we can’ t mm the clock back" (the underlined clause in Para. 3)?
选项
A、It’s impossible to slow down the pace of change.
B、The social reality children axe facing cannot be changed.
C、Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten.
D、It’s impossible to forget the past.
答案
B
解析
根据常识,我知道"we can’t turn the clock back"表示“过去的事情不再来”,在这里,作者表示我们虽然不能够回到过去,去营造一个不同于现在的适合孩子成长的环境,但是我们却可以帮助下—代勇敢面对社会现实和生存环境,所以正确答案应为B 。
