[单选题]One of the reasons for high-school graduates not taking a gap year is that_______.
A. they think it academically misleading
B. they have a lot of fun to expect in college
C. it feels strange to do differently from others
D. it seems worthless to take off-campus courses
题目解答
答案
C. it feels strange to do differently from others
解析
本题考查对社会行为背后心理因素的理解,核心在于分析学生选择或拒绝某种行为的潜在原因。题目中,从众心理是关键破题点:高中毕业生可能因担心与同龄人不同而放弃间隔年,这种行为反映了社会压力对个人决策的影响。
选项分析
选项C(正确答案)
"it feels strange to do differently from others"
此选项直接指向从众心理。高中毕业生正处于社会认同需求较强的阶段,担心与他人不同可能带来心理不适,因此更倾向于跟随主流选择(如直接读大学),而非尝试间隔年。
其他选项排除
- A(academically misleading):若间隔年被普遍认为学术价值低,题目中应有相关铺垫,但未提及。
- B(fun in college):享受大学生活是直接入学的动机,而非拒绝间隔年的理由。
- D(worthless off-campus courses):否定校外课程价值与间隔年本质关联较弱,且未明确说明其“无价值”。
