24、们之间的相处出了问题之后,如何平衡工作和家庭之间的关系的故事。1C根据语境“No, Im not”可推知,作者并不承认女儿的说法,作者在为自己的行为进行辩解,defend“辩解,辩白”,故C项正确。2A根据下文中的“the fact that I chose home office to be accessible to her and her sister”可知,作者选择在家工作是为了孩子们,故A项正确。3B由“typed out”和下文中的“my fingers”可知,是用手把想法转换成文字打出来,即B项正确。4A看起来作为作家和演说家的作者就是要把自己的手指和键盘连接起来,把自己的思想和
25、有价值的观点连接起来。connect.to.“把和连接起来”,符合语境,即A正确。5BLaure没有意识到的是在她白天不在家的时候,作者也做了许多家务活。admit意为“承认”;realize意为“意识到”;believe意为“相信”;recognize意为“认出,认可”。6D根据上文中的“Id also be doing a lot of housework”可知,作者一天在家里也会忙着做许多家务,因此在下午3点左右的时候才终于得空来工作,即D项正确。luckily意为“幸运地”;gradually意为“逐渐地”;instantly意为“立刻,马上”;finally意为“最终”。7B根据上文
26、可知,作者要忙着做很多家务,因此用来工作的时间就弥足珍贵了,故B项正确。anxious意为“焦虑的”;precious意为“珍贵的”;busy意为“忙碌的”;rare意为“稀少的”。8A作者为能够和孩子们在一起感到骄傲。proud意为“骄傲的,自豪的”;ashamed意为“惭愧的”;afraid意为“害怕的”;scared意为“害怕的”。9C根据下文作者的反思可知,Laure的观察触动了作者的心,即C项正确。fill意为“充满”;break意为“(使)破”;touch意为“触动,感动”;mend意为“修理”。10B在Laure的眼里,作者肯定是一个能找得到但是难以接近的妈妈。上文“myself
27、 on being available to my children”也是提示,故B项正确。11A作者认为与孩子们的关系比任何其他的工作都重要。故A项正确。12D作者决定让Laure在作者太专注于工作时提醒作者。下文“she always gives me a little hug to remind me of the real reason why I work at home”也是线索,故D项正确。13C由作者想让孩子提醒自己可知,她想赋予孩子这样的权利去让自己知道自己忽略她们了,即C项正确。have the power to do sth.意为“有权利做某事”。patience意为“耐
28、心”;time意为“时间”;power意为“权利”;honor意为“荣誉”。14C根据上文“I had decided”可推知,作者已经下定决心做一些改变,这属于计划的内容,故C项正确。pattern意为“模式,图案”;dream意为“梦想”;schedule意为“工作计划”;choice意为“选择”。15A根据对下文的理解可知,作者是在给孩子做出承诺,故A项正确。16B作者说:“无论什么时候你感觉我忽略了你或者你需要我的关注时,我想让你来拥抱我一下。”与“Im ignoring you”形成呼应,孩子需要作者的关注,即B项正确。17A与“Just come up and give me a little hug”呼应,故A项正确。18C根据“or you need my _16_”的提示可知,孩子的拥抱提醒作者孩子们需要她,故C项正确。19D多年以后我们仍然沿用这种心照不宣的信号。unspoken“心照不宣的”,故D项正确。20A而且她总是给作者一个小小的拥抱来提醒她在家工作的真正原因。根据上下文可知,此处表示逻辑上的顺承关系,即A项正确。
