Passage Three
Why did some parents hold an unaffordable party to celebrate their kids’ entering adulthood?
选项
答案
Because they wanted to prove they were successful.
解析
根据题干提示定位至第十段。作者在本段第一句指出在美国文化中,富足往往被视为成功的象征,这促使一些家长同意购买他们其实负担不起的东西。然后第二句提到亲眼看看各种文化和收入水平的人为其孩子精心举办的coming of age聚会吧,即使这意味着会身负债务,该句中的coming of age与题干中的entering adulthood是同义表达,意思是“成年”。该句表明作者以成年礼聚会为例说明第一句的观点。由此可见,一些家长即使会身负债务也要为其孩子精心举办成年礼聚会是为了证明自己非常成功,故答案为“Because they wanted to prove they were successful.”。
