【C5】

选项 A、there
B、we
C、they
D、it

答案D

解析 该空格所在句包含“as+形容词+as+主语+be”的结构,表示逗号后面部分与前面意义转折,这里要填的是主语,根据形容词hard的意义及其连接,可以排除选项A(there不会作主语),排除B项we(一般没有we are hard之类的用法);C项they没有明确的复数名词指代 (不可能是本句的experts),也应当排除。根据第一段的末句“What’s a well-meaning parent to do?”所提示的上下文信息可以判断,空格处可以是父母要做的事情,即“what a parent is to do”,用it代替,故选项D正确。
