专题08 完形填空(一)
一、(福建省龙岩一中2021-2022学年高三期中)My daughter loved dance, until she didn’t. After a(n) 21 first year, I noticed her interest disappearing week by week. Then, one day, she slowly 22 to me before class and asked if she could just drop it.
My first reaction was to 23 her to “finish what you start”. After all, sticking with something difficult can teach determination, discipline and 24 . But watching my first-grader drag (勉强) herself into each ballet position, I started to 25 how much that “blanket advice” meant. Is it really in my kid’s best interest, or even practical, to make her stick to every promise through until she reaches a bitter 26 ? What if there are different but 27 valuable qualities, which can be gained by giving up the things that are not right for her?
With the winter show coming near, I realized she needed to either drop her class or devote herself to it. After a few days’ 28 , she decided dance wasn’t for her — a(n) 29 I supported. Quitting is never a black-and-white problem. Sometimes, it means 30 a barrier in your way to love something else. In my daughter’s case, ending dance made space for her new 31 , such as horseback riding and Girl Scouts. She’s into them for now, but it is okay if that still changes.
As adults, we are used to 32 the power of saying yes, but what about saying no? The ability to recognize when something isn’t a(n) 33 investment(投资) of our time or energy is also important. As my daughter gets older, I want her to feel confident to 34 something that’s no longer meeting her needs. She shouldn’t be held back by the thought that she must 35 something at any cost simply because she has started.
