选项 A、relief
B、responsibility
C、burden
D、business
答案 C
解析 词汇类试题；上下文类试题。relief：the easing of a burden or distress，such as pain。anxiety。oroppression“减缓：缓解负担或忧虑，如痛苦、焦虑或压抑”。responsibility：something for which one isresponsible；a duty,an obligation“责任：一个人应对之负责的事情；职责、义务”。burden：a source of greatworry or stress；weight“负担，重任：担忧或压抑的源泉；重负”。根据上下文判断，这里应当使用含贬义的词汇，即子女不情愿接受的义务，正与亚洲文化相反。
