【解析】
【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者经过十六年
成长，已经成长为一个独立的人，开始意识到妈妈的指导总是对的，这就是作者认为应该经常听妈妈的话的原因，并谈论了妈妈对自己的影响。
【1题详解】
考查冠词。句意：我已经成长为一个独立的人。后文单数可数名词person为泛指概念，应用不定冠词限定，因其后的形容词independent发音以元音音素开头，故填an。
【2题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意：这可能是好的，也可能是坏的，因为我可以自己做事情，但有时很难接受别人的建议。根据前文am以及时间状语at times可知，此处描述现状，用一般现在时，主语为I，谓语动词用原形。故填struggle。
【3题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：然而，从关心你的人那里获得建议可以在很大程度上影响你的生活。分析句子可知，此处引导限制性定语从句，先行词为people，关系词在从句中作主语，指人，用who引导该从句。故填who。
【4题详解】
考查情态动词。句意：这就是为什么我觉得你应该永远听你妈妈的话。根据句意及后文动词原形listen，此处应用情态动词should“应该，必须”，表示建议。故填should。
【5题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：这一信念并不容易实现。分析可知，此处为“主语+be+adj+动词不定式”结构，形容词easy为性质形容词，动词不定式主动表示被动含义，用realize的不定式形式，符合句意和语法。故填to realize。
【6题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：我想我们都同意，承认妈妈是对的总是一件很难的事。分析句子可知，空格处为宾语从句中的主语，可以用动名词也可以用动词不定式。故填admitting/to admit。
【7题详解】
考查状语从句。句意：但是，当（如果）你站在寒冷的室外，发抖，因为你没有穿上你被要求穿的那件额外的夹克时，你还应该说些什么呢？分析句子可知，空格处引导状语从句，根据语境判断，可以用when或while引导的时间状语从句也可以用if引导的条件状语从句，均符合句意。故填when/while/if。
【8题详解】
考查被动语态和时态。句意：但是，当（如果）你站在寒冷的室外，发抖，因为你没有穿上你被要求穿的那件额外的夹克时，你还应该说些什么呢？分析句子结合句意可知，谓语动词tell和主语you之间是被动关系，因为动作发生在前文一般过去时did not wear之前，是“过去的过去”，用过去完成时的被动语态（had been done）。故填had been told。
【9题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：我心想，“她疯了吗?”think to oneself“暗想，心想；”是固定搭配，因主语为I，用其反身代词作宾语，符合句意。故填myself。
【10题详解】
考查宾语从句引导词。句意：我认为，一个人需要走出自己的舒适区，尝试一些新的东西，才能遇到比生命更伟大的想法。分析句子可知，空格处引导宾语从句，宾语从句结构完整，语意清晰，用没有实际意义的连词that引导从句。故填that。
