“我”希望自己成为一个耐心的、富有理解力的母亲。通过孩子的一次测试,“我”真正理解了怎样才是好母亲。
1.A and连接两个并列成分,空处应和understanding呼应,并与pushy相反,因此选A。语意为“我要做一位富有耐心和理解力的妈妈”。
2.D 依据下文的“While taking the test”推断出这里是参加测试。
3.C 由下文可知孩子对测试不重视。take it seriously 严肃对待,重视。
4.B 下文的“He continued to play”暗示孩子一直在玩。
5.B 孩子一直在玩,而“我”一直在吼他。
6.D 最后,“我”让孩子感到他会一事无成。
7.B 然而“我”却非常固执,不肯屈服让步,一直催促孩子去训练。give in“认输,屈服”,符合语境。
8.A by the time后接从句,表示“到……时候”。
9.D 比赛当天,孩子顺利完成考官指定的动作,一切自然有序。normal“正常的,一般的”,用以描述正常、常规的事情;natural“自然的,不做作的”,用来描述行为、动作,符合语境。
10.C 考官没有让他做“背摔”这个动作。
11.C 孩子感到困惑,询问妈妈为什么让他做那么多次背摔。
12.A 反复训练的动作竟然没有在测试内容里,孩子因此非常困惑。even用在否定句中加强语气,强调出乎意料。
13.D 孩子的话对别人来说算不了什么。mean“意味着”,符合语境。
14.B 下文的“I really do love you baby”暗示这里应该是妈妈表示爱自己的儿子。
15.D 孩子正在玩,没说什么,只是咯咯地笑。
16.A “我”仍为自己的举动感到内疚。
17.B “我”不知道他是否已经宽恕“我”。forgive“原谅,宽恕”,符合语境。最后一段的第一句也有暗示。
18.B 孩子用最甜的语言对我说,“我知道你爱我,但是我更爱你。”
19.C “我”断定孩子的感受比任何考试都重要。
20.D 这里与第一句中的“I promised myself never to be a pushy parent”呼应。

One day last month after I received my salary, I went shopping with my little son. 36 in the crowded store, I had my pocket 37 and my whole salary was gone with it.

I felt very sad and even 41 for losing the money when I got home. To make up for my 42 mistake, I gathered all my strength to give our house a thorough cleaning and then 43 a wonderful meal and cooked a special dish my wife loved to 44 her.
When she came home, I 45 a smile to greet her. She was 46 to see the neat house and 47 meal. We sat at the table and began to eat. I told my story 48 . She did not respond. It was as if she had not heard my words.
“I’ve 49 my salary,” I murmured to her again.
