Carol began treatment afterwards. She felt almost 24 and went right back to work. Carol hates the idea of being 25 as a “sick” person. She likes her life 26 .

Life is 39 .

阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
As a teenager, I was pretty lazy when it came to doing thingsfor my family. I worked hard at school, and sometimeslooked after my younger sister. Still, I found myself regularly resisting the urge to ______ out at home with even the simplest things.
Every Wednesday afternoon, for example, my mother ______ me to another town for a piano lesson. During my two-hour lesson, she’d rush to the nearby store and buy a week’s worth of ______. Given the fact that my mom had driven me twelve miles there, twelve miles back, ______ for my lesson, and bought me a candy bar, you’d think I’d be very ______ to help her bring the groceries into the house. ______ I wasn’t. I generally just brought in an armload and left the ______ for Mom as I ran to my room, shut the door, and started studying.
Don’t get me wrong: even back in my room, I felt ______ about not helping my mother more. Deep inside, I wanted to change my ______ . But I also realized that once I did change, there’d be no going back. ______ I took on more responsibility, my parents would start______ more of me. At age fifteen, I sensed that this one small change would ______ something much bigger: my personal change from a cared-for, spoiled (被宠坏的) childto a more ______ , caring and giving young man.
I’ll never forget the Wednesday when I made a(n) ______to jump in and see what happened. Returning home from the ______ , I disappeared into my room, as usual. But once inside, I felt that deep and burning ______. Throwing my school books on the bed, I suddenly opened my door and ______ back to the garage to help my mother. How happy I felt that day!
Surely, over time, I continued to help out with more housework. The neat thing was, the more I helped out, the ______ I felt about myself and my place in my family. As Mom and Dad realized they could ______ on me more, our trips became far less stressful, too. In short, it was a win-win situation for everyone.
Sometimes the little things we put off doing the longest ______ out to be the simplest things to complete. And feeling happy beats feeling guilty any day.
