选项 A、harmonious
B、wholesome
C、malignant
D、independent

答案D

解析 选项"independent"与其后面的成分结合在一起构成了一个动名词短语,即"being independent from our mother"(独立于母亲),该动名词短语在原文"that"引导的宾语从句中作主语。其实"being independent from our mother"相当于上句话中的"establishing such boundaries"。考生在解题时要注意上下句之间的关联。当然,"be independent from..."本身也是一个固定用法。
