There is a fine line between a parent who is active and open-minded and one that doesn’t know when to let go （放手）．As my daughter, Nicole, prepares to leave home for college, I’m discovering how hard it is to stay on the __1__ side of this line．When I hold __2__ the apron strings （圍裙帶） connecting us, Nicole, eager to __3__ independence, tries to loosen my grasp．What results is a （an） __4__ mother-daughter, push-me, pull-you kind of tango．

I __16__ the lessons carefully．Nicole has struggled to learn over the past 18 years: __17__, sympathy, and hard work．There have been a few holes along the way．__18__, she is well-equipped and eager to __19__ the future．The next step, I recognized, was mine to take: giving my daughter and myself the _20__ we both needed．

Ken worked_________ (從頭到尾) his summer vacation to earn his tuition for next term.

Millions of American children attend summer camps. Most summer camps teach swimming and other sports. But special skills are taught in some summer camps.

One of these is Concordia Language Villages Camp in the state of Minnesota. Campers there learn to speak a foreign language without the use of books. They must not turn to teachers for help. People who work there speak the language all the time and show the campers what to do. The campers learn the language by watching and hearing the words. One student at the German Camp once said she experienced what it would be like to be in Germany.

Colleges and universities organize other learning camps. Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois offers a one-week-long camp called “Summer Wings Camp”. The camp is held at the Southern Illinois Airport. Campers learn about the history of flight and experience what an airplane pilot does.

At Gettysburg College in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, students can take part in a two-week camp that teaches astronomy. They study the motion of planets and stars.

The Pennsylvania State University offers many summer programs. One program it offers is nursing camp. Students in this program take part in different emergency(緊急情況) situations and learn how to deal with injuries.

Another skill camp is organized by businesses. Camp CEO(首席執(zhí)行官) is a one-week camp in the state of Arizona for fifty teen girls. At the camp, they have the chance to meet successful businesswomen who are CEOs in different industries.
