答案解析：

母亲（即本文的作者）不厌其烦的年复一年的为孩子们上学包午餐，随同午餐盒，这位母亲总坚持给孩子写上简单的一张便条，便条上都是些丁点儿鼓励的话语关于即将到来的考试啊运动比赛啊，还有一个特殊时刻的感激啊等等都写上两句。就这样，这位母亲从孩子一开始上小学到高中毕业都一直坚持这样做。天底下的母亲在生活小事上处处传递的伟大的爱！

小题1:此题可用排除法，纸条是放在午饭中的，B、D 显然不对，A 项carry 这个词是携带的意思，与题意也不合，include 除包括以外，还有放入，算进去的意思，合题意。

小题2:此题要结合前面a thank-you for，既是感谢的时刻，应用special 特别的才对。

小题3:与上题一样，要结合空后面的意思选择，为要举行的考试或体育比赛写的话，该是鼓励的。

小题4:考查动词：A. loved 爱B. answered回答 C. wrote写D. examined检查，一开始，他们很喜欢这些便条。选A。

小题5:考查副词：A. lately最近B. by the way顺便说一下C. by the time到…时间为止D. gradually逐渐的，到他们上高中为止。选C。

小题9:可由下文提到的我从最小的孩子走了以后，尤其希望大儿子回来推断出大儿子是想回家住几个月。

小题10:考查动词：A. organizing组织B. planning计划C. comparing对比D. completing完成，这些是做完了的事，所以用completing.

小题11:考查副词：A. hopefully有希望的 B. finally终于C. particularly尤其是 D. certainly当然，完成学业，经过实习以后，他终于成了技术助手，用finally 符合语境。

小题12:考查介词短语：except for 除了，as for 至于；孩子住得远，只是除去短短的假期回家拜访。

小题13:考查副词：A. especially尤其是B. immediately立刻C. Equally相等的 D. generally一般地，马克回来我特别高兴。选A。

小题15:考查动词：A. packed收拾行李B. fetched去拿C. Bought买D. filled填满，因为我还在为最小的弟弟准备午餐，我也帮马克准备了一份。选A。

小题16:考查名词：surprise 前文提到过大儿子在上大学的时候说过不需要母亲的纸条了，所以，对于现在大儿子对见不到纸条的失望，母亲感到的是惊奇。选B。

小题17:考查词组：A. waiting for等待B. worrying about担心C. caring for照顾D. asking about询问，想象我的惊讶当儿子打电话来询问便条的事情。选D

小题18:考查形容词：儿子见不到母亲的纸条，很失望，所以打电话问是不是自己做得不好了。选A。

点评：如果考生能吃透作者的写作意图，透过这个角度进行语言的思维，这篇看似比较复杂难懂的文章就会容易多了。就语言特色来讲，它也考查了这些语言点：动词，形容词及副词，名词，动词短语，介词短语及非谓语等等。当然，完形填空试题还有一个重要的侧枝功能，就是上下文逻辑的理解考查，在这篇测试中，也综合考查到了。本测试更多的偏重到了逻辑选词，所以，多数考生在对全文理解不透的情况下，往往感受到了该题偏难
