A father and his son went to a kite-flying festival. When they 31, there were many parents and children playing in the park. The son was happy when he saw the sky was full of colourful 32. He wanted to fly a kite, too. So they went to a kite shop and bought a beautiful one.
The father is good at flying kites. Soon the kite was high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, “Dad, it 33 that the string is stopping the kite from flying higher. 34 we cut it, the kite will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?” The father said 35 but just cut the string off. The kite really went higher. This made the little boy happy.
But then, after a few minutes, the kite started to come down slowly. And it soon fell onto the ground. The son was 36 to see this. He asked his father, “I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. But 37 did it fall down?”
The father smiled and said, “The role of the string was not stopping the kite from going higher, but was helping it stay in the sky, because the kite 38 couldn’t fly up. When you cut the string, it could no longer support the kite.”
In our life, we may sometimes feel like there are some things that are holding us back and stopping us from 39. But in fact, these might be the things that support us the 40. We can really grow up and become better by knowing the importance of these things.

【分析】
首先通读全文，理解主旨：本文通过父子在风筝节放风筝的故事，引出生活中“看似阻碍我们的事物实则是支持我们的力量”的哲理。解题时需结合上下文语境、固定搭配及逻辑关系逐个分析选项：
1. 31题：前文提到父子去风筝节，后文描述到达后的场景，需选表示“到达”的词；
2. 32题：结合风筝节主题，天空的彩色物品应为风筝；
3. 33题：考查固定句型“it seems that”，表“似乎”；
4. 34题：儿子提出“剪断线→风筝飞得更高”的假设，需用条件连词；
5. 35题：父亲仅剪断线未说话，需选表“没说话”的表达；
6. 36题：儿子预期风筝高飞却掉落，情绪应为惊讶；
7. 37题：儿子询问风筝掉落的原因，需用疑问词“为什么”；
8. 38题：指代风筝自身，需用反身代词；
9. 39题：结合后文“grow up”，此处指阻碍成长；
10. 40题：强调这些事物是“最”支持我们的，需用最高级。
【解析】
31. 选A。句意：当他们到达时，公园里有很多父母和孩子在玩耍。arrived（到达）符合语境；tried（尝试）、looked（看）、waited（等待）不符合逻辑。
32. 选C。句意：儿子看到天空满是彩色的风筝很高兴。根据风筝节主题，kites（风筝）正确；hens（母鸡）、birds（鸟）、planes（飞机）不符合场景。
33. 选B。固定句型“it seems that”（似乎），符合儿子的想法；likes（喜欢）、turns（变得）、cuts（切）无法构成正确句型。
34. 选A。句意：如果我们剪断线，风筝会自由飞得更高。if（如果）引导条件状语从句，符合假设逻辑；before（在…前）、because（因为）、so（所以）不符合语境。
35. 选D。句意：爸爸什么也没说，只是剪断了线。said nothing（什么也没说）符合父亲的行为；everything（一切）、something（某事）、anything（任何事）不符合。
36. 选B。句意：儿子看到风筝掉落很惊讶。儿子预期风筝高飞却掉落，surprised（惊讶的）符合情绪；excited（兴奋的）、tired（累的）、angry（生气的）不符合。
37. 选C。句意：但它为什么掉下来？询问原因用why，正确；where（哪里）、when（何时）、what（什么）不符合。
38. 选A。句意：因为风筝自己不能飞高。itself（它自己）指代风筝，正确；myself（我自己）、yourself（你自己）、herself（她自己）不符合。
39. 选D。句意：生活中我们有时觉得有些事阻碍我们成长。结合后文“grow up”，growing（成长）正确；fighting（战斗）、playing（玩）、leaving（离开）不符合。
40. 选C。句意：但事实上，这些可能是最支持我们的。the most（最）符合语境；least（最少）、longest（最长）、heaviest（最重）不符合。
