【主旨大意】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述小男孩Max在五岁的时候，他的母亲去世了。他非常怀念他的母亲。作者和他的爸爸结婚后，对小男孩很照顾，尽力想抚慰小男孩心灵深处的痛苦。小男孩很纠结怎样称呼这个后妈，最后小男孩的回答使作者感到很温暖。这样我们明白一个道理：付出总有回报。

17.B 考查形容词辨析。根据下文“we often ended up playing, laughing, and recently, even sitting together on the sofa with a book(我们最终经常玩、笑，最近甚至一起坐在沙发上看书)可推知如果作者有耐心，她和Max能相处很融洽。故选B。

22.D 考查形容词辨析。根据上下文可知作者应该是Max的第二个妈妈。故选D。
