I sat in the all-too-quiet waiting room of the cancer center, counting the minutes until my treatment. I thought I'd 36 it two years ago, but it was back. After my 37 diagnosis, Nom and Dad had driven more than l,200 miles from their home to be with me for three 38 while I was getting over from 39 and chemotherapy(化疗). When the cancer returned last, they, once again, 40 it here , too. They waited for hours while I received my treatments------Dad with his 41 and Mom with a magazine.
But now, they were 42 in Westlake.
My children are 43 and my four brothers live far from my home outside Pittsburgh,Pennsylvania. I knew 44 of them would come if asked, but I didn't want to 45 them,even with the intense 46 I felt.
I 47 picked one of the magazines on the end table beside me and couldn't help wishing my 48 were there inside. One publication caught my 49 , a magazine I liked best and had 50 to ages ago. I couldn't tell you the last time when I'd read an issue. I 51 it up and I started right in with the letters to the 52 .
I love 53 my copy every month, the first letter began. The author mentioned a daughter who 54 in Clinton, Pennsylvania. Huh, that's funny. I thought. That's my town! I read the letter to the end, where my 55 fell upon the author's signature:
Thank you, Margie and Tom Parrish, Westlake, Louisiana
Alone? Hardly. Margie and Tom-or as I call them, Mom and Dad-were right beside me,even now.

(答案→)B 解析：文章作者回忆了两年前得癌症住院期间父母陪伴左右，两年发现癌症病状最后又犯了，本以为孤身一人对抗疾病的时候，偶然从一本杂志获悉父母一直关注着她，从而感受到父母无微不至的爱的故事。【小题1】上下文串联。A治疗B战胜，击败C感染D做手术，操作。根据下文 but it was back说明我原本以为两年前我战胜了疾病。【小题2】上下文串联。从下文When the cancer returned last, they, once again可知此处是指两年前的第一次诊断。【小题3】上下文串联及常识。下文中提到手术及化疗，根据常识应该是三个月，而不是三天，三年，或三小时。【小题4】上下文串联。此处应和and后面的 chemotherapy(化疗)一词构成并列关系，故选D（手术）。【小题5】固定搭配。make it 意思是及时到达。It在此是虚指，无实义。上文提到两年前得癌症住院期间父母陪伴左右，根据once again说明当癌症病状最后又犯了，再一次，他们及时到达医院。 【小题6】上下文串联。从上文They waited for hours，可推断父母是拿着可以打发时间的东西，结合下文Mom with a magazine，故填Bible（圣经），其它几项均不合句意。【小题7】上下文串联。上文作者回忆了手术住院时父母陪在身边，再根据转折信息词But now，说明父母回老家了。【小题8】上下文逻辑推理。下文提到只要我开口要求，他们（我的孩子们和我的四个兄弟）都会来医院（照看我）”，可以推断作者的孩子们已经长大成人。故选full-grown，已长成的，成熟的。【小题9】上文提到孩子们和我的四个兄弟。故首先排除CD。再结合转折连词but可得知此处指他们当中任何人都会来医院（照看我），只要我开口要求。故选A【小题10】上下文串联。从转折连词but 结合上文句意可知此处是指我不想麻烦他们。【小题11】上下文串联。从文中可知父母回到了westlake,又不想麻烦孩子和兄弟们，作者孤身一个人呆在医院，所以有着强烈的孤独感（loneliness），而B. pride自豪C. happiness快乐，幸福D. anger生气均不合语境。【小题12】上下文串联。从文中可知父母回到了westlake,作者孤身一个人呆在医院，因为百无聊赖，所以信手拿起一本杂志来看。A 半心半意地，符合语境。【小题13】上下文串联。上文作者回忆了癌症手术住院，化疗时父母陪在身边，而现在自己独自一人，所以看杂志时，情不自禁的希望看到父母在里面。【小题14】固定搭配。catch one’s eyes/attention吸引某人的眼球/注意力。而 A想法，思想；B头脑，心思；D手均不符合语境。【小题15】上下文串联。从上文a magazine I liked best及下文I couldn't tell you the last time when I'd read an issue（我记不得最后一次读期刊是什么时候）可得知作者已经订阅此杂志很多年了。【小题16】上文提到”一本订阅过多年的最喜爱的杂志吸引了我的注意”，所以“我拿起文章来看。”故选B. pick up拿起，捡起；而A举起；张贴，为...提供食宿；C建立D拆散，分解。不合句意。【小题17】上下文串联及常识。根据下文语境，是指杂志上一位读者写的信，当然是写给“编辑”的一封信。故选A编辑。BCD均不符合逻辑。【小题18】上文提及该本杂志是作者最喜爱的，可推断父母订阅了该杂志，因而父母在信上说’喜欢每个月收到一本/册杂志（copy）。体现了父母“托物思人”的挚爱深情。【小题19】上下文串联。从下文That's my town结合地点名词Clinton, Pennsylvania说明此处是指写信的人提及有个女儿住在Clinton, Pennsylvania。【小题20】标志词法。从下文中signature（署名）可推断出是与“看”有关。故选gaze凝视，注视，盯。而B触觉C想法，思想；D意识均与“看”无关。句意：我读完这封信，在结尾处我看到了作者的署名。

我明天再问问老师，叫他解释下这个问题
