Sometimes a stepparent has to take a step back. When I was thirtyfive, I met my husband and came to know his kids, aged 10 and 7.We __1__ playing basketball and shopping for cartoon books and became great friends. Then I got __2__.
In most cases, stepkids live with their mom and stepdad. This makes our case quite __3__. Four years into our marriage, after going between their mom’s place and ours, the boys __4__in with us fulltime.
I was no longer a parttime friend, so everything changed. For example, __5__ the kids to help didn’t appear an important thing before, but now they became unwilling. Once, after I’d asked my elder stepson to set the table, he __6__ said, “You’re not my mother; I don’t have to __7__ you.”
It was painful but I realized it was about keeping __8__clear in our new family life. I told him he was right—I wasn’t his mom; I was another person in his life who loved him, and we needed to get things done __9__.
Even in a lifein situation, a stepparent isn’t the parent. You help with everything and __10__ lots of hugs and laughs. But you also have to learn to stand in the shadow. For example, when there were only enough __11__ for Mom and Dad to sit up front, I sat in back. It was hurtful, but I realized it wasn’t personal.
Today, my stepsons know where to find me, whether it’s for long chats or a(n) __12__email to say hi. And I know where to find them. The caring is surely there, even if the bloodline isn’t.

Yesterday I totally changed my views about life after a talk with one of my friends. He told me despite being in a debt, he was happy and __37__ that it was because of something he saw in India.

how fortunate he was to be able to have a sound body, have a job, have a family, have the chance to __48__ about food that didn’t taste good, and have the many things that these people in front of him never dreamed of having. Perhaps life wasn’t bad at all.

专限时训练(十五)
(一)
本文为夹叙夹议的文章，作者首先叙述了与丈夫原有的孩子的交往，接着论述作为继父母，如何与这些孩子相处，文章最后讲述运用合适的方法所取得的效果。
1．C 从空后的playing basketball and shopping for cartoon books and became great friends我们可以知道，“我”与他们过得很愉快。其他答案均有一定干扰性。pass time意思是“消磨时间”，agree on意思是“同意”，set about开始，着手。本句主要是与下面所讲述的“随着年龄的增大，这些孩子与我形成对抗”作对比，因此C项最佳。
2．D 前面讲I met my husband，接下来“我”就结婚了。C有较大干扰性，get changed意思是“换衣服”，显然不合意。
3．A In most case, stepkids live with their mom and stepdad而我们的情况是“孩子与父亲和继母生活在一起”，因此说unusual。
4．B 从空后的with us fulltime可以推断出，孩子们搬进来与我们住在一起。
5．B 以前让孩子帮忙不是件麻烦的事情。其他答案中allowing意思是“允许”， advising意思是“建议”， inviting意思是“邀请”，根据后文“我”让他们帮忙时，他们总是拒绝，可以得此答案。
6．C B, D有较大干扰性，联系前文after我们知道，quickly与immediately不合适。
7．B 因为你不是我们的母亲，我们不听你的。
8．A 从后文I wasn’t his mom; I was another person in his life可知，“我”认为到了把各自的角色搞清楚的时候了。
9．B 叫他帮忙的目的是一起做事情。
10．D 从空后的lots of hugs and laughs我们知道，是彼此“共享”，而不是“有”。
11．D 有足够的票让父母坐在前排，“我”也选择坐后排。
12．C 从空后的to say hi我们得出答案。to say hi在这里的意思是“问候一下”，因此是a quick email。
(二)
这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章，记述了感恩节前夕发生在一对母女身上的感人故事。虽然家境贫寒，但是母亲仍然捐献给因失火而身陷困境的邻居一些物品。正在这时，仅仅三岁的女儿决定要捐献自己最喜爱的玩具熊，妈妈舍不得但是又不忍伤害女儿幼小的心灵，勉强同意了。女儿年龄虽小，但是心胸不小，可爱可敬。
13．A 上文提到住所简陋，又没有工作，生活艰堆，只能勉强量入为出。struggled (努力，奋斗)符合语境。
14．B 由下文列举各方援助的具体细节可知大家在“援助(rescue)”。
15．A 依据下文I helped carry items to their car可知她们是来募捐的，“收集(collecting)”捐献物品的。
16．D 其实作者内心是“期盼，渴望(longing)”捐献更多物品的，但实在是心有余而力不足。
17．D 依据下文you’re right. We forgot the toy…推断出这里女儿的意思是我们“忘记(forgot)”拿什么东西了。
18．B 作者还没来得及跟着女儿进屋，她已经又跑了出来。before这里作“还没来得及……就……”。
19．B 结合上下文推断该玩具熊是女儿的最爱。
20．A 女儿看着“我”的脸，察言观色，试探“我”的态度。
21．C 女儿现在要把她最喜爱的玩具捐出去。give away捐献。
22．C 大家都屏住呼吸，静观事情的发展。hold one’s breath是固定短语，意为“屏住呼吸”。
23．B 这里指“我”都要说不出话了。
24．D 这件事让作者意识到她的女儿心地善良，可爱可敬。
(三)
本文讲述了Duane与作者的交往。Duane对作者的一片真情深深地打动了作者。
25．B 当作者看到Duane还站着，以为他昨晚可能遇到什么事情，因此过去询问。此处只是作者的一种想法而已，故选B。
26．C 根据下文可知作者没有看Duane送的礼物，所以Duane眼神中透出受到伤害的委屈。
27．A 此处disappointedly失望地，对应上文的hurt。
28．D 作者打开盒子，看到的是两个啤酒瓶盖，这让她很吃惊。the sight of…看见……
29．C
Duane 告诉作者这是两只银耳环。
30．B 作者被Duane的创造性和考虑周到“打动(touched)”了。
31．B 作者担心戴上耳环，会容易让人注意到自己畸形的耳朵。draw attention to引起对……的注意；do good to对……有益；add weight增加重量；make use of充分利用。
32．A 但是面对学生的一片真诚，作者怎么能够“拒绝(refuse)”呢？
