1.31.

A big

B small

C wide

D

解析：选B。形容词词义辨析，语境逻辑推理。前句线索：We don’t have much money（我们家没有很多钱）。家境贫穷，所以住的房子应该是狭小的。▪A. big 大的：家境没钱不可能住大房子，逻辑相反；▪C. wide 宽阔的，多用来形容道路、河面，不修饰房屋，语义不通。逻辑链：缺钱 → 住房狭小 → 家人容易争吵，和后文 quarrels 争吵也形成呼应。

2.32.

A know

B forget

C lose

D

解析：选A。动词词义辨析，上下文逻辑。句意：我成为家庭调解员，慢慢领悟家庭和睦的意义。▪B. forget 忘记；C. lose 失去。上下文：长大之后主动当调解员，经常劝解家人，这个过程是慢慢懂得家庭和睦的价值，而不是忘记、失去它。B、C 代入后和整篇文章情感完全相反，直接排除。come to know 固定搭配：渐渐懂得。

3.33.

A funny

B harmful

C important

D

解析：选C。形容词词义辨析，主旨线索。句意：耐心、理解、爱，对于一个家庭来说是最重要的东西。▪A. funny 滑稽可笑的；B. harmful 有害的。全文主题讲家庭相处，耐心、理解、爱都是家庭的正向品质，不可能是滑稽或者有害的。important 用来强调这些品质的价值，贴合文章中心思想。

4.34.

A calm

B nervous

C lazy

D

解析：选A。形容词词义辨析，前后句对照线索。前半句线索：shouldn’t get angry（不应该生气）。既然不要生气，对应的状态就是保持冷静。▪B. nervous 紧张不安的；C. lazy 懒惰的。处理家人矛盾，不需要紧张，也和懒惰无关。stay calm 是固定短语，意为 “保持冷静”，和 get angry 形成反义对照，是完形高频考点。

5.35.

A hate

B pain

C love

D

解析：选C。名词词义辨析，全文主题复现。句意：我们要带着责任感和爱去面对家庭矛盾。▪A. hate 憎恨；B. pain 痛苦。前文多次出现 love，例如 “we all love each other”；整篇文章倡导家人之间互爱。hate、pain 都是负面情感，与文章积极的家庭主题冲突。and 连接并列名词，responsibility（责任感）是正向名词，空格也要填正向名词 love。
