D．give解析从下文“youcanstayuplateforonce”可知，虽然我知道女儿的睡眠习惯，但是我想女儿可以临时转变一下固有的习惯。此处只有giveup有“放弃，转变”的意思。putup意为“举起，搭建，张贴”；takeup意为“从事”；pickup意为“捡起”。答案D20．A.patience B．luck C．fun D．success解析havefun表示“玩得兴奋”，固定搭配。答案C21．A.excited B．proud C．anxious D．angry解析由于女儿急于想去睡觉，所以看起来很焦急(anxious)。答案C22．A.discussed B．continuedC．counted D．argued解析从foranothertenminutes看出，又下了10分钟，表示没有让女儿去睡觉，故用continued。答案B23．A.nervously B．immediatelyC．strangely D．suddenly解析从最终一段作者的自责可以看出，作者根本没有意识到女儿会由于不能去睡觉而哭泣，所以是突然(suddenly)哭泣了。答案D24．A.mistake B．decision C．attempt D．effort解析从下文可以看出，作者本意是想和女儿好好地相处，结果由于自己想赢棋，让女儿哭泣，事后觉得这样做不对，明显是犯了一个错误。makeamistake意为“犯错误”；makeadecision意为“作出打算”；makeanattempt意为“努力，企图”；makeaneffort意为“努力”。答案A25．A.managed B．recognizedC．allowed D．reduced解析allowsb./sth.todosth意为“允许某人或某物做某事”，其他三项不能这样搭配。答案C26．A.offered B．served C．controlled D．taught解析小时候想赢的欲望对我很有用。servemewell意为“对我有用”。答案B27．A.realized B．apologized

B．period C．date D．moment解析每时每刻，而不是每一次。下句有提示，是排比句。答案D29．A.conscious B．sensitiveC．reasonable D．active解析beconsciousof意识到。句意：通过更有意识地选择怎样应付发生的事情，我们可以接近我们生命中真正想要的。答案A30．A.alter B．shift C．differ D．distinguish解析shift转变，移动，shiftto/towards；alter转变；differ是difference的动词形式，意思是“不同……”，differin...意思是“在某方面或某事上不同”；distinguish后面常跟介词from或between，意思是：“从……中区分出来，不同”。比较这四个词的意义及用法，可以看出只有B才是正确答案。答案B31．A.Otherthan B．RatherthanC．Aswellas D．Accordingto解析不再接受很少变化的习惯性地应对方式，这些方式(会)导致同样的结局。答案B32．A.transplant B．transform C．transport D．transmit解析句意：我们可以意识到并将我们的旧习惯有力地向制造我们真正想要的生活方向转变。答案B33．A.edge B．way C．direction D．center解析inthedirectionof朝……方向。参考上题解析。答案C34．A.hope B．interest C．chance D．courage解析然而要做到这一点，我们首先必需有士气端详某些消沉面，通常无意识/潜意识行为会过来挡道，阻碍我们提升生活的质量。答案D35．A.patterns B．frames C．landscape
