Question

【題目】 July 17, 2012 is a date that is forever kept in my memory. I will never forget my dad told me my mom’s routine kidney(腎臟) stone surgery had ended in sudden cardiac arrest(心臟驟停). She had been fine only 10 minutes before when she sent me a text message. The doctors told us she had to be put on life support, and she might not survive. I was 12 years old. I couldn’t even imagine my life without my mom. I was ____________and had no idea what was about to come.

Two weeks later she came out of coma(昏迷) and woke up. Four months later she came home from the hospital. Despite this incredibly happy news, we were left completely unprepared for the fact that my mom had suffered a severe brain injury during her three cardiac arrests. The woman who came home from the hospital wasn’t the mama who had raised me for 12 years. I didn’t know her nor ___________ her.

Her brain injury caused her to lose three years of memory and to have ___________ with both short term memory and long term memory. For instance, we might have a conversation and a few minutes later she would have no idea we even had spoken. She asked the same questions multiple times a day, often ___________ she even had asked them. I answered her as many times as she asked.

In the early days, I helped my mom relearn to read, write, walk, talk and eat. She couldn’t do any of these things well. It took her minutes to come up with a/(an) ____________when we would talk. She even __________her math skills, which were very advanced as she was a math teacher in a college. Now she struggles with third grade multiplication tables.

As a 19-year-old adult, I have grown up with my “new mom” for seven years. It can be frustrating for me to have to answer the same questions repeatedly or to show her how to do something again and again, yet at the same time I understand anything that is difficult for me is incredibly challenging for her. I tried to get to know her without the ___________ that she would be the same as she was before. Now I love her unconditionally and learn to be more ____________. We are closer than ever before.

文章大意：2012年7月17日是一個永遠留在我記憶中的日子。我永遠不會忘記我父親告訴我，我母親例行的腎結(jié)石手術(shù)以心臟驟停告終。兩周后，她從昏迷中蘇醒過來。四個月后，她從醫(yī)院回家。她的腦損傷使她失去了三年的記憶，并且有短期記憶和長期記憶的問題。作為一個19歲的成年人，我已經(jīng)和我的“新媽媽”一起長大7年了。對我來說困難的事情對她來說是難以置信的挑戰(zhàn)。我試著去了解她，沒想到她會和以前一樣�，F(xiàn)在我無條件地愛她，學會更多地理解她。我們比以前更親密了。
