In all the struggling together I had found that
17、 deep love for him that I had on the day we said “I do I could see his shoulders and neck relaxed.

22、以在心灵深处更加温暖,用hard but warm描述作者一家现在的生活最适宜。4B主旨大意题。本文一开始谈到丈夫失业以后,“作者的家庭生活发生了变化。虽然屡次找工作未果,但是他们更团结了,也更看重对方了。从感情方面来说他们又找回了(We Find It Again)久违的那种情感。We Find It Again为双关语,既与文中谈到的工作的话题重合,又暗示他们又找到了(幸福感),最适合作本文标题。*结束 (海淀期末)My Best Enemy Once again, I was in a new school.
