CXD P34 Assumption Q1 也想不明白

The sense of delayed gratification, of working now for later pleasure, has helped shape the economic behavior of our society. However, that sense is no longer nurtured as consistently in our children as it once was. For example, it used to take a bit of patience to put together the toys that children got in cereal boxes; now the toys come from the boxes whole.

Which of the following is an assumption of the passage above?

a. the toys in cereal boxes have changed partly because the economic conditions of our society have improved.

b. the influence of promotion gimmicks on the economic behavior of our society has increased over the years.

c. the toys that used to come in cereal boxes were put together by the same children who played with them

d. part of the pleasure of any toy lies in putting the toy together before playing with it

e. today's children do not expect a single toy to provide pleasure for a long period of time.

answer: c

想不明白为什么是C...感觉C要是变成否定句的话, 作为答案就能想通...

能不能把题目贴完整.

我只看到题干和选项.没看到问题....

我选了d, 后来发现是错的.

c是对的.

题目里面的sense of delayed gratitude的情况:

现在: 买来就是拼装好的

原来: 玩具都是拆散了放在cereal的盒子里面(促销手段),然后到家后孩子们把他拼装起来以后才能玩.

看出区别了吧? 如果原来不是孩子自己拼装的. 何来delayed gratutide.....
