问题     It’s an annual back-to-school routine. One morning you wave goodbye, and that very evening you’re burning the late-night oil in sympathy. In the race to improve educational standards,【C1】______are throwing the books at kids. Even elementary schools students are complaining of homework【C2】______. What’s a well-meaning parent to do?
    As hard as it may be, sit back and chill, experts advise. Though you’ve got to get them to do it, by helping too much, or even examining【C3】______too carefully, you may keep them from doing it by themselves. "I wouldn’t advise a parent to check every【C4】______assign-ment," says psychologist John Rosemond, author of Ending the Tough Home-work. "There’s a【C5】______of appreciation for trial and error. Let your children earn the grade they deserve. "
    Many experts believe parents should gently look over the work of younger children and ask them to rethink their【C6】______. "But you don’t want them to feel it has to be【C7】______," she says.
    That’s not to say parents should【C8】______homework—first, they should monitor how much homework their kids have. Thirty minutes a day in the early elementary years and an hour in【C9】______four, five, and six is standard, says Rosemond. For junior-high students it should be "【C10】______more than an hour and a half," and two for high school students. If your child consistently has more homework than this, you may want to check with other parents and then talk to the teacher about reducing assignments.
【C5】
选项 A、drop
B、short
C、cut
D、lack
答案D
解析 根据上题，此处应填入表示“缺乏”意思的词。short of和lack of都可表示“缺少”，但short of是一个形容词短语，填入空格语法不通。所以D项lack of是对的。
