    Usually it is the children, not the parents, who are unwilling to spend their evenings practising spelling and learning times tables. But a Canadian couple has just won a legal battle to【C1】________their offspring from homework after successfully arguing there is no clear evidence it improves academic performance.
    Shelli and Tom Milley, two lawyers from Calgary, Alberta, launched their highly【C2】________ case after years of struggling to make their three【C3】________ children do school work out of the classroom.
    After waging a long war with their eldest son over his homework, they decided to do things【C4】________ with their youngest two. And being lawyers, they decided to make it official.
    It took two years to【C5】________ the Milleys’ Differentiated Homework Plan, which【C6】________their youngest two children will never have to do homework again at their current school. The two-page plan, signed by the children, parents and teachers, states that "homework will not be used as a form of evaluation for the children”.【C7】________. the pupils promise to get their work done in class, to come to school prepared, and to revise for tests.

Working with the staff at St Brigid Elementary/Junior High School, she formed a homework committee. When no firm changes【C9】________ from the committee, the couple began negotiating the legal document that decided the matter.
    "We think it’s a parent’s【C10】________ to choose what’s in our children’s best interests," said Shelli. "But we’re thankful the school did the right thing." [br] 【C5】
选项
答案 N
解析 空格前的不定式符号to提示空格应填入动词。空格后为“米勒家区分家庭作业计划”，根据下文的“该计划由孩子、家长及教师三方签署”，因此可推断该计划是需要商讨的，故选negotiate“协商”。
