选项 A、mustering
B、ejecting
C、insulting
D、retaliating

答案B

解析 选项"ejecting"(排斥)在原文中与其前后的成分结合在一起构成一个完整的原因状语从句,即"because we are afraid that doing so implies we are rejecting her"(因为我们担心这样做意味着我们排斥母亲)。这一原因状语从句用来限定修饰主语(Sometimes we hold back from establishing such boundaries有时我们不愿意与母亲确立这样的界线)。常有人认为:与母亲确立一条界线等于排斥母亲。考生在解题时要注意句子中前后内容的关系和意义。
