问题     During the past ten or fifteen years a great deal of attention has been【C1】______to "telling it like it is," or "letting it all hang【C2】______". My impression is that this【C3】______devotion to【C4】______one’s mind has more often led to hurt feelings and【C5】______relationships than【C6】______great joy and fulfillment.
    I think we generally agree that never expressing real feelings and【C7】______all less-than-lovely thoughts about each other hardly【C8】______to constructive communication. It’s a great relief to allow ourselves the luxury of【C9】______our human frailties and pursuing more honest relationships with others. But we need to strike a【C10】______between telling it all and telling【C11】______.
    Recently I received a letter from a mother who had been persuaded by her troubled twenty-five-year-old son to attend a weekend marathon with him. Under pressure from the group, her defenses【C12】______and she heard herself telling her son for the first time that he had been an【C13】______—that she hadn’t been planning to have a child. He in turn told her that he couldn’t【C14】______a single day in his childhood that he’d been happy.
    " At that time," this woman wrote, " it seemed helpful. We cried and we made【C15】______; I thought【C16】______the truth had been good for us. But the trouble is, it wasn’t the【C17】______truth.

【C9】
选项 A、admitting
B、confessing
C、acknowledging
D、knowing
答案C
解析 此处意思是“承认人性的弱点”，所以knowing不合适；admitting和confessing都指承认错误或罪行，又过于严重，所以只有acknowledging最合适。
