十、(湖北省襄阳四中 2021 届高三二模)
When 17-year-old Quattro Musser hangs out with friends, they don't drink beer or cruise around in cars with
their dates. 21 , they stick to G-rated activities such as rock- climbing or talking about books.
They are in good company, according to a new study showing that teenagers are increasingly delaying
activities that had long been seen as rites of passage into 22 . The study, published Tuesday in the journal
Child Development, found that the percentage of adolescents in the U. S. who have a driver's license, who have
tried alcohol, who date, and who work for pay has plummeted since 1976, with the most precipitous (急剧的)
23 in the past decade. The declines appeared across race, geographic, and socioeconomic lines, and in rural,
urban, and suburban areas.
To be sure, more than half of teens still engage in these activities, but the 24 have slimmed
considerably. Teens have also reported a steady decline in sexual activity in recent decades, as the portion of high
school students who have had sex fell from 54 percent in 1991 to 41 percent in 2015, according to Centers for
Disease Control statistics. u People say, 'Oh, it's because teenagers are more responsible, or more lazy, or more
boring, ' but they're 25 the larger trend," said Jean Twenge, lead author of the study, which drew on seven
large time-lag surveys of Americans. Rather, she said, kids may be less 26 in activities such as dating,
driving or getting jobs because in today's society, they no longer need to.
According to an evolutionary psychology theory that a person's "life strategy" slows down or speeds up
depending on his or her 27 , exposure to a "harsh and unpredictable" environment leads to faster
development, while a more resource-rich and secure environment has the 28 effect, the study said. In the
first 29 , "You'd have a lot of kids and be in survival mode, start having kids young, expect your kids will
have kids young, and expect that there will be more 30 and fewer resources, " said Twenge, a psychology
professor at San Diego State University who is the author of "iGen: Why Today's Super- Connected Kids Are
Growing Up Less Rebellious, More Tolerant, Less Happy-and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood."
In that model a teenage boy might be thinking more 31 about marriage, and driving a car and working
for pay would be important for “ establishing mate value based on procurement of resources," the study said. But
America is shifting more toward the 32 model, and the change is apparent across the socioeconomic
spectrum, Twenge said. uEven in families whose parents didn't have a college education. . . families are smaller, and
the idea that children need to be carefully 33 has really sunk in. ‘‘ The 34 of 41 adult activities''
could not be attributed to more homework or extracurricular activities, the study said, noting that teens today spend
fewer hours on homework and the same amount of time on extracurriculars as they did in the 1990 s (with the
exception of community service, which has risen slightly). Nor could the use of smartphones and the Internet be
entirely the 35 , the report said, since the decline began before they were widely available. If the delay is to
make room for creative exploration and forming better social and emotional connections, it is a good thing, he said.
