问题     It’s the holiday season and that means kids by the millions are
asking Santa for the opportunity to blow away enemy soldiers and
aliens on the Xbox or PlayStation. Would parents be worried about【M1】______
buying such gifts? Violent video games are now an established
part of our culture; recent releases of games such as Call of Duty:
Modern Warfare and Skyrim have setting sales records for media【M2】______
releases(topping even blockbuster movies)and garnishing lavish
reviews for their artistic merits. Ten years ago, scholars and
politicians raised the possibility such games might contribute to【M3】______
school shootings or other youth violence.
    Our modern fears over Violent video games appear to be in
line with prior moral panics over media as diversely as jazz music,【M4】______
comic books and Harry Potter. Granted, too much passive
activity, including video games, can contribute to obesity. Unlike【M5】______
anything else, gaming should be enjoyed in moderation, balanced
with outdoor activity, allowed enough time for family and【M6】______
schoolwork. A very small number of kids exhibit signs of
pathological gaming. And regarding concerns about aggression, it【M7】______
appears to be that, fairly early on, children learn to distinguish
between fantasy and reality, and their brains don’t treat these
phenomena the same. Santa Claus is a primary example. Despite【M8】______
that not only their parents but all of society conspiring to lie to【M9】______
children about the reality of this fellow, children can reason out the
improbability of its existence by the mid-elementary years. With【M10】______
those kinds of reasoning powers, kids can handle a video game
that doesn’t even claim to be real. [br] 【M7】
选项
答案 And—But
解析 语篇错误。由上下文语义判断，此句与前句之间应该是转折的关系，不是并列关系，前句指出玩电子游戏的负面影响——一小部分孩子表现出病态游戏的征兆，本句则指出孩子们似乎很早就学会区分幻想和现实，因而玩电游不会影响孩子的攻击性，前后对照，故应该用表示转折意义的连词But。
