There is a fine line between a parent who is active and open-minded and one that doesn’t know when to let go （放手）．As my daughter, Nicole, prepares to leave home for college, I’m discovering how hard it is to stay on the __36__ side of this line．When I hold __37__ the apron strings （圍裙帶） connecting us, Nicole, eager to __38__ independence, tries to loosen my grasp．What results is a （an） __39__ mother-daughter, push-me, pull-you kind of tango．

For the past two years, it’s gone like this:

Mother’s question: “Have you thought of taking an advanced placement class （大學(xué)預(yù)修課程） so that you can earn college credit?”

Daughter’s __40__: “No, I’m not interested in that．”

………

I bit my lip a few times and Nicole shot me a few glares．

Two months ago, she was __41__ to a great university．However, I was still the mother having a __42__ time letting go．The night before the introductory meeting of the university, I had read the course catalog carefully and __43__ courses which I thought looked good．We met on the campus the next afternoon, and Nicole’s face __44__ with excitement．“I have had my entire schedule figured out,” she said．“Already?” I was astonished, __45__ she should have discussed it with me．I examined the schedule．Nicole hadn’t taken a （an） __46__ one of the courses I had suggested．Every course she had chosen __47__ suited her interests．Just then I saw a mature, capable young woman with a __48__ mind and the ability to shape her future．She no longer needed her mother __49__ every decision she made．I felt proud, though still a bit __50__．

I __51__ the lessons carefully．Nicole has struggled to learn over the past 18 years: __52__, sympathy, and hard work．There have been a few holes along the way．__53__, she is well-equipped and eager to __54__ the future．The next step, I recognized, was mine to take: giving my daughter and myself the __55__ we both needed．

36．A．left   B．right  C．either       D．each

36---55   BACAD   DCBAB   DCABC   ACCAD  


解析:

36．B  意思是“恰當(dāng)?shù)摹�，表示作者不知這樣做才好，很難把握適當(dāng)?shù)某叨取?/p>

37．A  hold onto “抓住不放”。

38．C  keep一詞干擾性很強(qiáng)，但keep independence“保持獨(dú)立”，則表明女兒一直是獨(dú)立的。這與母親抓住女兒不放的語境不符。故填taste表明女兒要體會(huì)一下獨(dú)立的滋味。

39．A  女兒想獨(dú)立，而母親放心不下，母女相爭，自然是很令人“尷尬的”。

40．D  response “回答”，上文有Mother’s question為依據(jù)。

41．D  be accepted to　“被錄取到”

42．C　上文的“…doesn’t know when to let go”是提示。

43．B  作者把她認(rèn)為重要的課程畫上線，意思是讓女兒去選。

44．A  light up（使）變得容光煥發(fā)或振奮

45．B  用thinking表作者的想法，不能用hoping“希望”。

46．D　single “單一的”，起加強(qiáng)語氣的作用。女兒竟然一個(gè)她建議的課程都沒選！　

47．C  所選的完全都是符合她自己興趣的課程。exactly完全地；全然

48．A  sharp mind敏捷的頭腦 ,與mature, capable共同描繪女兒。

49．B  女兒已經(jīng)長大（mature）并且很能干（capable）,因此不需母親去評(píng)價(jià)她所作出的決定。agree 不及物。

50．C  but一詞的轉(zhuǎn)折決定此處應(yīng)該將excited排除。根據(jù)上下文，應(yīng)該填sad�？吹脚畠耗茏粤⒘�，當(dāng)母親的自然會(huì)驕傲，但又感到有點(diǎn)傷感。

51．A  因?yàn)橘e語是lesson（教訓(xùn)） 自然應(yīng)該填review “回顧”。

52．C  responsibility 責(zé)任感。

53．C  前一句說沿途有一些坎坷，空后面是她已經(jīng)為未來做好了充分準(zhǔn)備。所以此處應(yīng)該填具有轉(zhuǎn)折意義的詞，故填yet“然而”。

54．A此題可用排除法做。填embrace（擁抱），符合上下文。表明女兒已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備好擁抱未來，完全可以獨(dú)立生活了。 

55．D母親反思相通了，自然要充分放手，就會(huì)給母女都帶來自由。
