3．Why do young adult children become independent so much later than they did in 1970，when the average age of independent living was 21？Why have reduced class sizes and increased per-pupil expenditures （花销）not （36）B higher academic achievement levels？Why is the mental health of today's kids so poor when （37）C with that of children in the 1960s and before？Why do today's （38）A become defensive when told by teachers that their children have misbehaved in school？

Like biological extinction，linguistic extinction is a serious loss for all of humankind．Languages are some of the （45）primary ways people maintain their culture and are crucial to understanding other cultures．When fewer and fewer people share a （46）particular language，it may die，and when it does，part of our collective human culture dies with it．

What's in a name？Letters offer clues to one's future decisions，apparently．Previous studies have suggested that maybe a person's monogram （41）influences his life choices-where he works，whom he marries or where he lives-because of"implied self-esteem （自负），"or the temptation of positive self-associations．For instance，a person named Fred might be attracted to the （42）notion of living in Fresno，working for Forever 21or driving a Ford F-150．
Now a new study by professor Uri takes another look at the so-called name-letter effect and （43）offers other explanations for the phenomenon．He analyzed records of political donations in the U．S．during the 2004campaign-which included donors'names and employers-and found that the name of a person's workplace more closely related to the first three letters of a person's name than with just the first letter．But he suggests that the reason for the association isn't implied self-esteem，but perhaps something （44）exactly the opposite．
Duyck，one of the researchers whose previous work（45）uncovered the name-letter effect，isn't so quick to abandon the implied self-esteem theory．He pointed out that the sample group Uri studied may have biased the results：Uri analyzed the name-letter effect in a sample of people who donated money to political （46）campaigns．Still，Duyck notes that Uri's theories are credible，and that even while some people may （47）found the same name of companies，employees may be tending to those companies because they start with the same letter as their names．In the end，whatever the explanation for the name-letter effect，no one really disputes that self-esteem is （48）involved on some level．But the true importance of the effect is up for debate．"I can't imagine people don't like their own letter more than other letters，"says Uri，"but the differences it makes in really （49）big decisions are probably slim．"

Now a new study by professor Uri takes another look at the so-called name-letter effect and （43）offers other explanations for the phenomenon．He analyzed records of political donations in the U．S．during the 2004campaign-which included donors'names and employers-and found that the name of a person's workplace more closely related to the first three letters of a person's name than with just the first letter．But he suggests that the reason for the association isn't implied self-esteem，but perhaps something （44）exactly the opposite．
Duyck，one of the researchers whose previous work（45）uncovered the name-letter effect，isn't so quick to abandon the implied self-esteem theory．He pointed out that the sample group Uri studied may have biased the results：Uri analyzed the name-letter effect in a sample of people who donated money to political （46）campaigns．Still，Duyck notes that Uri's theories are credible，and that even while some people may （47）found the same name of companies，employees may be tending to those companies because they start with the same letter as their names．In the end，whatever the explanation for the name-letter effect，no one really disputes that self-esteem is （48）involved on some level．But the true importance of the effect is up for debate．"I can't imagine people don't like their own letter more than other letters，"says Uri，"but the differences it makes in really （49）big decisions are probably slim．"
