词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Honoryourchild,swishesandplantocreatethebreakthatfitsyourfamily,s

needs.McKennaReitz,amomfromToledo,Ohio,plansforherdaughtersKarsen,9,andMaddox,6,toenjoytime

OffWithfarniIyandfriendS."可知，尊重你孩子的愿望，计划创造一个适合你家庭需要的休息时间。来自俄

亥俄州托莱多的母亲麦肯纳・赖茨计划让9岁的卡尔森和6岁的马多克斯与家人和朋友一起享受假期，她

的假期计划显然反映了尊重孩子的需要这一点。故that指的是“尊重孩子的需要”。故选B。

是成绩。同时提出了一些给孩子减轻压力的方法。可推知，作者想表明父母应该让孩子从学校的压力中休

息一下。故选Do
