Answer 1

答案：
33．treated    考查时态    根据句意可知，"the way the speaker，when he was young，（33）treated（treat） his father．"是省略了"in+关系代词 which"的定语从句；先行词是the way；时间状语从句"when he was young"在从句中为插入语；the speaker为从句中的主语，此处在句中作谓语；根据句中的时间状语可知，此处描述的是演讲者小时候的事情，所以应使用一般过去时；故填treated
34．that     考查强调句中的连接词     本句的意思是：正是在他回顾他是如何长大的时候，他才开始理解他的父亲给予他的无私的爱；此处强调的是时间状语，故用连接词that
35．for     考查介词       本句的意思是：在他记起父亲为他和他的家人所做的那些小事的时候；此处用在him之前，意为：为了；故填介词for
36．his    考查人称代词    此处代指的是：说话者的（注意）；根据上文"he was young"可知，这里的"the speaker"应是一位男性；故填his
37．may   考查情态动词    此处表示可能性较小的推测，意为：表面上可能看起来很冷酷；故填may
38．showing   考查固定短语     固定短语have difficulty （in） doing sth，意为：做某事有困难；此处的意思是：我们可能会发现，我们的父母，尤其是我们的父亲，在我们最需要的时候，会很难用言语来表达对我们的爱；故填showing
39．to be     考查固定短语     固定短语remember to do sth．意为：记得去做某事；本句的意思是：如果我们记得去感恩或不那么以自我为中心，我们将会看到他们的爱一直都在那里；故填to be    
40．expressed    考查动词      此处省略了主语our parents，意为：他们只是以不同于我们所期望的方式那样表达着爱；根据what从句中使用了情态动词的完成时，可推测出此处表示的应是发生在过去的动作；故填expressed
