根据短文内容,从短文中的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    When we are little, we know nothing about the rights and responsibilities of adulthood. Thus, if we like a certain toy or if we want to eat a certain type of chocolate, we think that our parents will have to buy that for us.  We don't care that they possibly have not enough money for that. If they don't carry out our wish, we'll begin to cry. Whenever we begin to cry, we'll get what we want.

    Still, little by little, we realize that our parents can't offer us all that we want for certain reasons. We then also understand that parents have their rights. They have the right to scold us when we do something wrong or when they find out that we have lied to them. They choose our clothes, the food we eat, the school we will study at, the hours when we should go out to play and the time we have to return home.

    They are the ones to blame later if we don't receive proper education. That's why when we beat a classmate at the kindergarten, parents are the ones to apologize for our deeds in front of the teacher and the classmate's parents. And when we get ill, they are responsible for not taking good care of us and for dressing us inadequately.

    The moment we become teenagers, we notice that we should be responsible for the society. Now we have the right to be independent. It is supposed that we are mature enough to solve our problems and to make people around trust us. For some of us, this is a difficult test to pass, but it is the best method to see if we are capable of taking our place in society.

A. We think our parents should offer us all we need.

B. We should believe we can do them by ourselves.

C. This is a child's important weapon to threaten his/her parents.

D. Moreover, they have the right to make choices for us when we are little.

E. As a matter of fact, parents have a lot of things to be concerned about.

F. But at the same time they are responsible for many things that happen to us.

G. However, it's also time for us to give explanations when we do something wrong.

Think Positively

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}I'm not saying your problems are over, but simply looking at the world through rose-colored glasses means that half your problems will look like exciting challenges, and the other half you'll probably realize aren't problems at all, just facts of life.

My first career had been related to audiology (听力学)—one that allowed me to work part time while tending my growing family. But when my children grew up and left home, I found myself longing to be outside, not in a soundproof room in the hospital.

    So I began attending classes at the local university, hoping that might lead me to a new career. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} "What gave you pleasure as a child?" the counselor (顾问) asked. I thought for a while before responding, "Playing outside in the woods." Our discussion eventually led to a second master's degree, this one in zoology, and the job as a naturalist at a state park. I was 44 years old. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    But as I climbed the career ladder, my time in the field disappeared. I was chained to a computer screen. In the back of my mind, the career counselor's question sounded again. "{#blank#}3{#/blank#}"

    Shortly thereafter, an opportunity presented itself: a 4-month field research project at a university in the Netherlands. I found that field research allowed me to play in the woods again, but with a new purpose.

    At the end of the project, I was invited to participate in the "sandwich" Ph.D. program, in which students do research in their home country while receiving support and instruction in the Netherlands. I was 60 years old. I didn't think that earning a Ph. D. would further my career. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    Still, my colleagues raised their eyebrows. "{#blank#}5{#/blank#}" they asked, "It is all about the journey," I responded.

A. What gave you pleasure as a child?

B. I also went to see a career counselor.

C. What do you intend to do with a Ph.D.?

D. But I wanted to follow my new passion.

E. But when it was no longer right, I changed direction.

F. Can you believe you're actually getting paid to have this much fun?

G. And I was delighted to once again experience the joy of being outdoors.

    Before visiting Stonehenge I didn't know much about it. I remember seeing photos in my textbooks and being interested in the large stone structure. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    My visit to Stonehenge made me understand more about it. Stonehenge is an important piece of prehistory that is just outside London, England, in Wiltshire. It is in the middle of a field. My arrival at Stonehenge was by car. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} When arriving at the museum you will not see the stones.
