William Appleton, author of a recent book entitled Fathers and Daughters, believes that it is a woman's relationship with her father【C1】______decides how successful she will be in her【C2】______life．According to Appleton there are three important steps a girl must【C3】______in her relationship with Daddy.
The【C4】______is the 'little girl' stage in which the daughter loves and idolizes (崇拜) her father【C5】______he were a god or hero without【C6】______．And her father loves his daughter【C7】______blindly, seeing her as an 'oasis (绿洲) of smiles' in a hard, cold world．Then comes the second stage．It starts during adolescence and【C8】______for many years．Here, the little girl begins to rebel against Daddy and【C9】______his authority．He reacts with anger and【C10】______.
And the final stage comes【C11】______a woman reaches the age of about thirty．At this time the daughter sees her father not as a hero【C12】______as a fool, but learns to accept him【C13】______he is, for better or worse．And Daddy forgives her, too, for not being the【C14】______little girl he had once hoped for.
But not all daughters go through all three stages, and it is here that the key to a woman's career【C15】______．Those girls who never get past the first 'oasis of smiles' stage,【C16】______all their lives seek out their fathers' love and approval, will never【C17】______in the business world．They will remain at the secretarial (秘书的)【C18】______all their lives.
It is only those women who get to the final stage, those who【C19】______and accept Daddy's faults, who can even hope to be 【C20】______enough and independent enough to become a candidate for top-management.
