글의 흐름상 가장 어색한 문장은?
Children's playgrounds throughout history were the wilderness, fields, streams, and hills of the country and the roads, streets, and vacant places of villages, towns, and cities. ①The term playground refers to all those places where children gather to play their free, spontaneous games. ②Only during the past few decades have children vacated these natural playgrounds for their growing love affair with video games, texting, and social networking. ③Even in rural America few children are still roaming in a free-ranging manner, unaccompanied by adults. ④When out of school, they are commonly found in neighborhoods digging in sand, building forts, playing traditional games, climbing, or playing ball games. They are rapidly disappearing from the natural terrain of creeks, hills, and fields, and like their urban counterparts, are turning to their indoor, sedentary cyber toys for entertainment.

글은 아이들이 자연 놀이터를 "vacated"(떠났고) 실내의 "sedentary cyber toys"(앉아서 하는 사이버 장난감)로 향한다는 내용인데, 이 문장은 아이들이 여전히 동네에서 모래 놀이·공놀이를 흔히 한다고 말해 흐름과 반대된다.
"The term playground refers to..." 문장은 앞 문장의 놀이터 개념을 정의해 자연스럽다.
