參考答案【正確答案：A】
推斷題。問的是作者給出的解決孩子厭倦癥的建議是什么？歸位到行文的最后一段最后一句Yet I've been reflecting… in our society. 可推知作者在思考人們的生活方式和刺激的強度是如何導(dǎo)致社會中兒童和青少年出現(xiàn)日益嚴重的心理問題。這是作者研究的核心，也可以推知這是作者的解決問題的建議, 所以說Α選項中提到的調(diào)整生活節(jié)奏和刺激活動的強度的說法是正確的, 符合題意。

- 分析下列論證中存在的缺陷與漏洞，選擇若干要點，對該論證的有效性進行分析和評述。 豐盛煙草公司開發(fā)了一種新產(chǎn)品——公益香煙。這種香煙的一端有一個探頭，點燃后外側(cè)不冒煙，吸煙者最終將煙全部吸入自己體內(nèi)，不會造成別人被動吸煙。因而，特別適合于公共場所或者各種會議期間使用。該公司通過調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)近期各種會議和公共場所吸煙者比例在不斷上升。“公益香煙”的發(fā)明恰好滿足了市場需求，而且在煙草生產(chǎn)技術(shù)上有重大突破，使尼古丁含量大大降低，售價僅比一般香煙高20%，如果將該煙的市場定位于25歲以上受過良好教育的文雅吸煙者，那么，隨著時間的推移，一定會有越來越多的人適應(yīng)并喜歡該煙的口味。因此，公司決策者認為，“公益香煙”的市場需求強勁，最終會成為香煙行業(yè)的主導(dǎo)品牌，為公司帶來豐厚的利潤。
