as well. Gardeners will want to mix plenty of soil fertilizers into the ground as sunflowers tend to be heavy feeders.
Sunflowers can be slow starters and the tiny new plants don't seem to grow very rapidly. Gardeners should protect the new plants as they begin to grow. Once they get going, sunflowers are able to out-grow many weeds, making them easier to grow in the home vegetable garden than many other plants.
Most pests and diseases are not a bother to the sunflower, however, more than one gardener has said that their lovely looking plants were ravaged overnight by hungry squirrels, mice or birds.

A. To prevent birds from eating sunflower seeds. B. To offer the sunflowers enough sunlight.

Why do some parents tend to hold back their disabled children from experiencing life? Even when they are grown, the parents will not allow certain things to happen. It's true that they do have a certain amount of responsibility in protecting their severely disabled adult child, but at what point do they bee overly protective?
Parents want to create a safe haven, a place where they know that nothing bad will happen to their beloved child. This seems to be a respectable and notable act in caring for a person with a disability, but it can have a side effect. When protecting their child from suspected hardships, not wanting anything bad to happen to them, they very well may be preventing good things from happening to them.
In life we all make mistakes, it is how we are able to grow and strengthen our character. Parents may feel that in certain instances their child will get hurt or mistreated in some way, so they build walls in their own minds convincing themselves of the need to shelter. However, the disabled, yes even the “severely disabled” deserve to make personal mistakes as well. Even more, they have the right to succeed.
Parents should do everything and anything within their power to see their disabled children lead a somewhat “normal” life. Parents should help their children, not hold them down. This could make them think they are unworthy and that their parents do not believe in them.
Whatever it may be, let them at least try. If they want to attend college, so be it. Parents should find out all they can, and be involved in every detail. Get to know the aides, experience it with them. If they want to dare and someday marry, so be it. Don't shut them out and form bad or critical opinions about them just because you are afraid. Unite as a family and make it work.
32．What side effect will it have when the parents overprotect their disabled children?
A. Their children will never grow up in the future.
B. Their children will find no shelter when they grow up.
C. Their children will bee less confident when facing troubles. D. Their children will less likely meet with good things.
33．What attitude does the author hold towards the parents who overprotect their disabled
children?
A. Supportive. B. Objective. C. Critical. D. Uninterested. 34．What does the suggestions in the last paragraph imply ?
A. parents should be a bridge, not a brick wall
B. parents should act as their children’s best friends C. parents should encourage their children to get married
D. parents should live in harmony with their disabled children 35．What is the best title of this passage?
A. Living Within Parents’ Power
B. Letting Your Disabled Child Succeed
C. Getting out of a Brick Wall in Their Life D. Helping Your Disabled Child out of Trouble 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
