If a child reaches adulthood with recollection only of television, Little League, and birthday parties, then that child has little to draw on when a true test of character comes up-say, in a prickly business situation. "__1__ that child feels grounded in who he is and where he comes from, everything else is an act," says etiquette expert Betty Jo Trakimas 請問這裡的grounded是什麼意思? 是stable的意思嗎? 另外,1的空格選項 (A)For (B)If (C)When (D)Unless 答案是D 不能選B嗎? -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 163.30.94.115 ※ 文章網址: http://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Eng-Class/M.1414818949.A.09D.html

Grounded 本身指禁足,但這邊可能翻成囚禁(被侷限)
