【解析】
试题分析:文章介绍了当代美国社会占相当比例的年轻人的现状、思想和抱负。
【1】of.考查固定短语。此处是Millions of的用法,译为“数百万的,几百万”是个概数,故填of.
【2】feelings.考查名词。句中有and,空白处和ideas,actions并列,故用feel的名词复数形式,故填feelings.
【3】up.考查固定短语。句意:25岁以下的年轻人组成了美国人口的一半。make up“组成”,故填up.
【4】whom.考查定语从句。 句中包含定语从句,先行词是The young,many of 64 will be in power in the U.S.是定语从句,此处是介词+ whom结构,故填whom.
【5】Naturally.考查副词。用于句子开头有逗号和后面分开,用副词做状语,故填Naturally.
【6】it. 考查代词。此处it是形式主语,不定式to understand是真正主语,故填it.
【7】what. 考查宾语从句。此处是understand的宾语从句,句意:对于年长的人明白年轻人所想和他们的感受是非常有必要的。根据句意用what.
【8】wrong.考查形容词。句中有and前后并列,空白处要和形容词right并列且意思相反。句意:现在的大学生有很强的是非观。根据句意填wrong.
【9】better.考查形容词。句意:他们对使所有人都过更好的生活深感兴趣。此处暗含比现在更好之意,故填比较级better.
【10】been given.考查时态和语态。句意:尤其是以前没被给公平机会的那些人。主语who和动词give是被动关系,句中有助动词have用完成时的被动,故填been given.
