21-25 CBDAC   26-30 CBDBD  31-35 BCACA  36-40 BDAAD

解析:

21.动词词义辨析。carry携带，搬运；find发现，找到；include包含，包括；hold抓住，握住。句意是“每天包午饭时，我都要附一张便条在包里”。

22.形容词词义辨析。difficult困难的；special特别的，特殊的；comfortable愉快的，舒适的；separate分离的，分开的。句意是“（便条上的内容）也许是一个特殊时刻的感激。”故选B。

23.名词词义辨析。congratulation祝贺；improvement进步，改进；explanation解释，说明； encouragement鼓励。 从下文的 the coming test or sporting event可知“我”就即将来临的考试或运动会写些鼓励的话。

24.动词词义辨析。句意是“在小学阶段孩子们还喜欢我写的纸条。”

25.副词和介词短语作状语。lately最近；by the way顺便提一下，顺便问一下；by the time到……的时候；gradually逐渐地。从候温句子机构可以看出，该空应用一个可作连词引导时间状语从句的词只有by the time可用作连词，引导时间状语从句。句意是“到上中学的时候。”

26.动词词义辨析。receive收到；understand明白；enjoy喜欢；collect收集。从上文得知“随着孩子们长大，他们变得有自我意识了，我的大儿子告诉我他不再喜欢我每天写的纸条。”

27.动词词义辨析。copy抄写，模仿；read阅读；take带走；send，送，派。据题意“告诉他没必要再看纸条上的内容”，阅读什么东西应用read。

28.动词词义辨析。hold up举起，阻止; give up放弃; follow跟随; continue继续。前文提到尽管告诉儿子没有必要看纸条内容，但我还是有必要写，所以就一直继续写到他中学毕业。

29.动词的搭配。move out搬出去；move home搬回家；move to college搬到大学去；move to Sacramento搬到Sacramento。从上下文可知“大儿子Mac大学毕业后打电话问母亲他是否可以回家住2个月。”

30.动词词义辨析。organize组织；plan计划; compare比较; complete完成。从上下文可知“大儿子大学毕业后，在华盛顿完成了2个实习周期。”

31.副词词义辨析。hopefully抱有希望地；finally最后；particularly特别，尤其；certainly当然，必定。根据上文在华盛顿实习完后就在Sacramento找到一份技术助理的工作。

32.介词短语词义辨析。because of因为；instead of代替，而不是；except for除了……以外；as for至于，就……而论。据上下文可知“Mac除了短暂的探亲假外，他就一直因工作而住在离家很远的地方。”

33.副词词义辨析。especially特别，尤其；immediately立刻，马上；equally平等地；generally通常，一般。上文提到“Mac的妹妹上大学去了”所以Mac能回家来我感到特别高兴。

34.副词词义辨析。once曾经；again再，又；still仍，还；even甚至。句意是“Mac的弟弟在上学，我还要给他包午餐。”故选C。

35.动词词义辨析。pack包；fetch拿来；buy买；fill装满。在文章一段就提到了“我”每天要给孩子们包午餐，所以这儿的句意是“在给Mac的弟弟包午餐时，也给Mac包了一个。”

36.名词词义辨析。fear害怕；surprise惊讶；anger生气；disappointment失望。从后文得知“我”接到Mac打来电话要他的盒饭，所以可以猜想一下我有多惊讶。

37.动词短语词义辨析。wait for等待；worry about担心；care for爱好，关心；ask about问有关……。句意是“Mac打电话问他的午饭。”

38.形容词词义辨析。从语境可以看出，尽管大儿子Mac大学毕业参加工作了，但仍像以前一样打电话向母亲要午饭。他没得到午饭，就问母亲自己是不是因为做错了什么事，故选A项。

39.副词（短语）词义辨析。any more不再；enough足够的；once more再一次，又一次；better较好地。句意是“你不再爱我了吗，妈妈？”故选A。

40.副词词义辨析。interestingly有趣地；bitterly 惨痛地；politely有礼貌地；laughingly笑着。句意是当“我”笑着问儿子怎么了时，他劈头就问了“我”几个问题。对儿子问的问题，作为母亲的“我”感到好笑。
