　　[解题思路]

　　本题应把各选项与原文一一对应。A选项对应于第二段的第一句话“The coming of age of the postwar baby boom and an entry of women into the male-dominated job market have limited the opportunities of teen-agers who are already questioning the heavy personal sacrifices involved in climbing Japan’s rigid social ladder to good schools and jobs”(战后生育高峰期的到来及妇女进入男性主宰的就业市场，这些都限制了青少年的发展机遇，这些青少年已经开始质疑在进好学校学习，找好工作，攀登日本等级森严的社会阶梯的过程中所做出的沉重的个人牺牲是否值得)，但选项表述却与原文相反。B选型的说法与第三段的第一句话“While often praised by foreigners for its emphasis on the basics, Japanese education tends to stress test taking and mechanical learning over creativity and self-expression”(虽然日本的教育因强调基础知识而经常受到外国人的赞扬，但是它往往强调考试和机械学习而忽视了创造性和自我表现)矛盾，因为日本教育的特点不是强调创造力。D选项对应于第三段第三句话“Frustration against this kind of thing leads kids to drop out and run wild”(由此产生的受挫感致使孩子辍学、放荡不羁)，而选项正好颠倒了因果关系。C选项对应于第三段第一句话，这说明作者认为在培养创造力方面需要下更大的功夫，因此C是正确选项。
