2题:Americans are people obsessed with child-rearing. In their books, magazines, talk shows, parent training courses, White House conferences, and chats over the back fence, they endlessly debate the best ways to raise children. Moreover,Americans do more than debate their theories; they translate them into action. They erect playgrounds for the youngsters’ pleasure, equip large schools for their education, and train skilled specialists for their welfare. Whole industries inAmerica are devoted to making children happy, healthy and wise.
But this interest in childhood is relatively new. In fact, until very recently people considered childhood just a brief, unimportant prelude to adulthood and the real business of living.By and large they either ignored children, beat them, or fondled them carelessly, much as we would amuse ourselves with a litter of puppies. When they gave serious thought to children at all, people either conceived of them as miniature adults or as peculiar, unformed animals.
Down through the ages the experiences of childhood have been as varied as its duration.Actions that would have provoked a beating in one era elicit extra loving care in another.Babies who have been nurtured exclusively by their mothers in one epoch are left with day-care workers in another. In some places children have been trained to straddle unsteady canoes, negotiate treacherous mountain passes, and carry heavy bundles on their heads. In other places they have been taught complicated piano concerti and long multiplication tables.
But diverse as it has been, childhood has one common experience at its core and that is the social aspect of nurture.All children need adults to bring them up.Because human young take so long to become independent, we think that civilization may have grown up around the need to feed and protect them.Certainly, from the earliest days of man, adults have made provision for the children in their midst.
The present dayAmerican obsession with child-rearing has ______.

A、resulted in ineffectual action
B、initiated pointless discussions
C、had wide-ranging results
D、produced endless theories

Perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomenon of taboo behavior is how it can change {{U}} (1) {{/U}} the years within the same society, how certain behavior and attitudes {{U}} (2) {{/U}} considered taboo can become perfectly {{U}} (3) {{/U}} and natural {{U}} (4) {{/U}} another point in time. Topics such as death, fro example, were once considered so {{U}} (5) {{/U}} and unpleasant that it was a taboo to even talk about them. Now with the {{U}} (6) {{/U}} of important books such as OnDeath andDying and Learning to Say Goodbye, people have become more {{U}} (7) {{/U}} of the importance of expressing feelings about death and, {{U}} (8) {{/U}} a result, are more willing to talk about this taboo subject.

C、The thin look is associated with youth, vigor, and success. The fat person, on the other hand, is thought {{U}} (12) {{/U}} as lazy and {{U}} (13) {{/U}} in energy, self-discipline and self-respect.After all, people think, how can people who care about themselves, and therefore the way. they look, permit themselves to become fat In an image-conscious society like the U. S. , thin is "in", fat is "out".
It’s not surprising, then, that millions ofAmericans have become {{U}} (14) {{/U}} with staying slim and "in shape". The {{U}} (15) {{/U}} of a youthful physical appearance is not, however, their sole reason forAmerica’s obsession with diet and exercise.

In an effort to avoid such a fate, millions ofAmericans are spending more of their time exercising.
