The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of __8__， but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was __9__ having to study in three schools as a result of family __10__. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be.

C. chores D. responsibilities
答案：D。因为我比家里任何别的人英语都好，所以我在家庭里的职责增加了很多。responsibility“责任，负担，职责”；business分内事，事务，业务，事情；chore家务杂事，琐事。空14所在的句子是本段的主题句，从本段下文的描述看，写信、填各种表格、充当翻译、带祖父母看病以及和电话公司的代理谈判等事情已经不仅仅是chore(家务杂事)和business(分内的事情)，而更多的是一种责任，故responsibility为最佳答案。
15．A. at that time B. at home
C. at last D. at once
答案：B。at home“在家”在本句中作定语。我比家里任何人的英语都要好。
16．A. translated B. reported

答案：A。在和移民局的官员们面谈时充当翻译。和段落首句的“我在家人里面英语最好”相吻合。

C. even D. ever
答案：C。甚至和电话公司的代理谈判也是我。此处强调程度，故用even(甚至)。
18．A. good B. bad
C. surprising D. hopeless
答案：A。和第3段首句“接下来的四年教会了我乐观的重要性”相呼应。当你永不言弃时，美好的事情最终会发生。good“好的，令人满意的”。
19．A.wish B．wait
C．hope D．try
答案：B。只是要耐心地等待。
20．A.since then B．now that
C．so that D．even though
答案：D。我相信我的生活最终会变得美好，即使不是在今天，那一定会是在将来的某一天。由行文逻辑可知此处为让步关系，故选even though(即使，纵然)
