第二节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）
阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从36—55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项
In a class I teach adults, I recently did something “unpardonable（不可饶恕的）”. I gave the class homework! The 36 was to “go to someone you love within the next week and tell them you love them.” It has to be someone you have never said those words to before or at least haven’t 37 those words with for a long time.
Now that doesn’t sound like a very 38 assignment, until you stop to realize that most of the men were over 35 and were 39 in the generation of men that were taught that 40 emotion is not macho（阳刚的）. Showing feelings or crying was just not done. So this was a very 41 assignment for them.
