答案
C. Getting a college degree
解析
本题考查对关于“奥德赛岁月”文本内容的理解,解题思路是根据文本中对20世纪60年代或70年代之前出生的人定义成年标准的描述,逐一分析每个选项是否属于这些标准。
- 选项A:在传统观念中,离开家独立生活是走向成年的一个重要标志,很多人在成年后会离开原生家庭去开启自己的生活,所以“Moving away from home”(离开家)通常是定义成年的一个成就,该选项不符合题意。
- 选项B:经济独立是成年人的重要特征之一,能够依靠自己的能力赚取收入,维持生活,这是衡量一个人是否成年的关键因素,所以“Becoming financially independent”(经济独立)是定义成年的成就,该选项不符合题意。
- 选项C:虽然获得大学学位在现代社会是很重要的,但在20世纪60年代或70年代之前,并不是所有人都有机会或认为获得大学学位是定义成年的必要条件,所以“Getting a college degree”(获得大学学位)不属于当时定义成年的成就,该选项符合题意。
- 选项D:找到合适的配偶并组建家庭是传统成年观念中的重要组成部分,意味着个人在情感和家庭层面的成熟和稳定,所以“Finding the right spouse and starting a family”(找到合适的配偶并组建家庭)是定义成年的成就,该选项不符合题意。
