Question

Your daughter has finally reached the age of 18, and you think perhaps your job will finally get a little easier. That could be wrong thinking - as the parent of any 18-year-old will tell you.  Learning to cope with an ungrateful 18-year-old daughter takes patience, understanding and time.
_______ When she was a little girl, she wanted you to be involved（参和） in everything of her life from her daily activities to her friends. This is' no longer the case. She's a grown woman who needs her own personal life. Comment（评论） on her choices only when asked to do so - especially if you want to say no to her.
Allow her to make mistakes. No parent wants to see his or her child fall, but the days of protecting her all the time are at an end. Unless（除非） you see a train coming, let her fall when she makes poor choices. It will enable her to grow past the ungrateful "know it all" stage.
Encourage dialogue whenever you can, rather than planning talks. She's more likely to open up to you when talking over something trivial (琐碎的). Anytime she wants to talk, become a willing listener in the conversation. You never know when a deeper, more important conversation will develop.

Answer 1

小题1:D
小题2:B
小题3:A
小题4:C

试题分析：这篇文章主要讲述了父母应该怎么对付长大的女儿。需要给她自己的空间，允许她犯错，多和她沟通交流，而不是找她谈话。
小题1:词意猜测题：联系整个句子，意为：对付一个不领情的18岁的女儿需要耐心，理解和时间。Cope with对付，相当于deal with，故选D。
小题2:推理判断题。根据第二段后文She's a grown woman who needs her own personal life.她是个成年人了，需要她自己的私人生活。所以选择B，给她需要的空间。
小题3:推理判断题。根据第三段描述No parent wants to see his or her child fall, but the days of protecting her all the time are at an end.没有父母愿意看到孩子摔跤，但是保护他们的日子已经结束了，所以选A,父母不可能时时刻刻保护孩子。
小题4:推理判断题。结合文章内容，主要讲述了父母怎么对待孩子，所以文章是写给父母的，选C。
