第二节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）
阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从36—55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
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 （围裙带） 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 （大学预修课程） 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．

55．A．character B．strength C．relief D．Independence36---55 BACAD DCBAB DCABC ACCAD

(答案→)36---55 BACAD DCBAB DCABC ACCAD 解析：36．B 意思是“恰当的”，表示作者不知这样做才好，很难把握适当的尺度。37．A hold onto “抓住不放”。38．C keep一词干扰性很强，但keep independence“保持独立”，则表明女儿一直是独立的。这与母亲抓住女儿不放的语境不符。故填taste表明女儿要体会一下独立的滋味。39．A 女儿想独立，而母亲放心不下，母女相争，自然是很令人“尴尬的”。40．D response “回答”，上文有Mother’s question为依据。41．D be accepted to　“被录取到”42．C　上文的“…doesn’t know when to let go”是提示。43．B 作者把她认为重要的课程画上线，意思是让女儿去选。44．A light up（使）变得容光焕发或振奋45．B 用thinking表作者的想法，不能用hoping“希望”。46．D　single “单一的”，起加强语气的作用。女儿竟然一个她建议的课程都没选！　47．C 所选的完全都是符合她自己兴趣的课程。exactly完全地；全然48．A sharp mind敏捷的头脑 ,与mature, capable共同描绘女儿。49．B 女儿已经长大（mature）并且很能干（capable）,因此不需母亲去评价她所作出的决定。agree 不及物。50．C but一词的转折决定此处应该将excited排除。根据上下文，应该填sad。看到女儿能自立了，当母亲的自然会骄傲，但又感到有点伤感。51．A 因为宾语是lesson（教训）自然应该填review “回顾”。52．C responsibility 责任感。53．C 前一句说沿途有一些坎坷，空后面是她已经为未来做好了充分准备。所以此处应该填具有转折意义的词，故填yet“然而”。54．A此题可用排除法做。填embrace（拥抱），符合上下文。表明女儿已经准备好拥抱未来，完全可以独立生活了。 55．D母亲反思相通了，自然要充分放手，就会给母女都带来自由。

哦，回答的不错
