sb.from.为固定短语，意为“从带走/接走某人”，符合语境。故选A项。gather意为 “聚集”；keep意为 “保持”；guide意为 “指导”。2B解析：根据设空后的telling me about the daytime activities和转折词while可知，在回家的路上，妮科尔告诉作者白天的活动，由此可推断出她很开心。calm意为 “镇静的”；joyful意为 “高兴的；快乐的”；patient意为 “耐心的”；shy意为 “害羞的”。故选B项。3C解析：根据设空后的and quiet came back to her，she looked tired可知，之后她便安静 (peace and quiet) 下来，看起来有点累。peace and quiet意为 “安静”，符合语境。故选C项。dark意为 “黑暗”；loneliness意为 “孤独”；sorrow意为 “悲伤；悲痛”。4D解析：根据文章第一段可知作者去接女儿回家，应该是坐车回去；再根据设空后的there was still another 15 minutes of climbing up along a hill可知，此处指 “我们” 下车。get around意为 “到处走；回避；传开来”；get away意为 “离开；逃脱；外出”；get on意为 “上车，上马；进展”；get off意为 “下车；离开；出发”。故选D项。5B解析：根据第一段第三句中的On the way home可知，作者是接女儿回家。因此，此处指作者和女儿下了公交车后，还要沿着一个小山坡往上走15分钟才能到达住的公寓 (apartment)。故选B项。school意为 “学校”；department意为 “部门”；studio意为 “播音室”。6C解析：根据女儿的回答 “Okay.” 可推断出，妮科尔接受了 (accepted) 爸爸仍然在工作的事实。故选C项。stress意为 “强调”；ignore意为 “忽略”；check意为 “检查；核查”。7B解析：根据设空前的and sighed with “Okay.” 可知，妮科尔得知爸爸还在工作时叹了口气，有些不开心 (unhappily)。故选B项。excitedly意为 “激动地”；naturally意为 “自然地”；reasonably意为 “合理地；理智地”。8A解析：根据上句中的not as cooperative(合作的) as usual和下句中的but to stand in the middle of the road可知，妮科尔不像往常那样配合，有时还拒绝 (refused) 走路。故选A项。decide意为 “决定”；try意为 “尝试；尽力”；pretend意为 “假装；装作”。9D解析：根据常识可知，草地应在主路的边上。句意：有时，她走到路边的草地上aside意为 “在旁边”，故选D项。10C解析：根据语境可知，妮科尔走到草地上把雪踢开，直到 (until) 露出草。故选C项。11A解析：根据文章最后一段第二句That was why she kept silent all the way.可知，女儿一路上都保持沉默 (silent)。故选A项。excited意为 “兴奋的；激动的”；embarrassed意为 “尴尬的”；angry意为 “生气的”。12D解析：根据下文Why are you crying so sadly？可知，到了家门口，她突然大哭起来 (burst into tears)，情绪失控。故选D项。fill with意为 “装满”；wipe away意为 “擦去”；hold back意为 “隐瞒；抑制”。13A解析： 根据语境可知，女儿在家门口突然哭起来，而作者最后一句话使她哭得 (cry) 更大声了。故选A项。14C解析：根据下一段第三句中的twisted my waist可知，作者扭伤了腰，因此此处指 “妈妈不能背我，妈妈腰痛！” headache意为 “头痛”；stomachache意为 “胃病”；backache意为 “背痛”；toothache意为 “牙痛”。故选C项。15D解析：根据下文可知，女儿因为作者背她扭伤了腰而哭起来，由此可知，女儿是很体贴的 (considerate) 。故选D项。naughty意为 “淘气的”；cautious意为 “谨慎的”；honest意为 “诚实的”。16A解析：根据空前的twisted my waist可知，作者有一次背女儿的时候，扭伤了腰，这是一个意外 (accident)
