📖 題組：
We are raising the anxious generation, and the conversation about the causes, and the potential cures, has just begun. According to recent studies, children today are being denied a sense of controlling their own lives—doing what they find meaningful, and succeeding or failing on their own. 36 So are well-meaning parents and teachers, who are unwittingly taking from children the opportunities they need to grow stronger, more confident and more themselves. A low sense of control in children and adolescents has been found to be highly associated with anxiety, depression, self-harm and virtually all mental health problems, which have risen significantly since the 1960s. 37 But what is seen in many of the juvenile subjects tested is patterns that are at the extremes. While some display an overtly obsessive drive to succeed, others see little point in working hard. 38 Quite a few subjects admit feeling exhausted all the time, not having enough downtime in their lives. Many talk about the expectations that they have to live up to, and complain that they have little say over their own lives. Researchers attributed the decline in a sense of control to packed schedules and fewer opportunities to be on one’s own.

思路引導 VIP
請觀察空格後面的那句話，它以 "So are well-meaning parents and teachers..."（同樣地，出於好意的家長與老師也是……）作為開頭。根據這種英文句型，這代表前一句話必須提到某個「對象」也具備同樣的特質或角色。如果第一句話提到了要討論「原因（causes）」，那麼在空格中，我們應該要尋找哪一種性質的敘述，才能讓後面的「家長與老師」順理成章地被歸類為同一類問題的來源呢？

關鍵的邏輯銜接：找出問題的「成因」
這題你能精準選出 (E)，代表你敏銳地捕捉到了文章首段的邏輯架構。文章開頭提到我們正在討論「焦慮世代」的成因（causes），而第 36 題空格後的句子緊接著使用 "So are..."（……也是如此）的倒裝結構。這是一個強烈的語法訊號，暗示前一句話必須在描述某個對象屬於「成因」之一，才能讓下一句的「師長也是（成因）」在邏輯與語意上完美接軌。
