Two things, he says: First, it becomes harder to respect and【C5】______the boundaries that shape a child’s【C6】______, so he simply haunts (纠缠) his parents【C7】______he gets his way.

选项 A、stepped
B、laid
C、scaled
D、pinned
答案B
解析 动词词组辨义题。此句意为“我们也定了规矩”，所以lay down“制定，规定”符合文意。stepdown“辞职，下台”；scale down“按比例减少，按比例缩小”；pin down“把……固定住，使动弹不得”，均与文意不符，故排除。
