A family comedy with laughter would have been more uplifting for my husband.“It wouldnt bother me so much if I just felt appreciated，” he said, while Bradley Cooper jumped out of the way of a bullet (子弹)I nodded in agreement.“You know this movie is based on a true story，” I said, half thinking about my husbands situation, half watching the movie.“Yes，” he replied.“Its based on Chris Kyles book.”I thought about all the young men who had lost their lives in Iraq.“Incredible.Some of those boys were only a couple of years older than our son，” I said.As I watched the movie, I began to realize how negligible our problems really were.“You know, other couples are in bed tonight wondering if their sons are safe on a battlefield; and here we are with our son perfectly safe in the next room.”Over the next hour, the mood in our bedroom changed from depression to gratitude.How blessed we were! Our son was healthy and safe in the next room.We had a roof over our heads and could walk outside without worrying whether there would be bullets flying through the air.As for my husbands job, he could do something elsesomething that he would love.Looking at the big picture, counting our blessings and moving from depression to reflection have made all the difference.语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文。当丈夫面临失业、家庭笼罩着伤感的气氛时，一部电影让作者和丈夫彻底改变了心态和心情。1Why did the author want to change the channel?AThe movie was very boring.BHer husband liked family comedies.CShe considered her husbands feeling.DShe was in no mood to watch a movie.解析：推理判断题。根据第三段可知，作者当时之所以想换频道，是考虑到轻松快乐的喜剧可能会有助于改善丈夫的低落情绪。答案：C2What made the author feel much better?AThe touching story in the movie.BThinking of unfortunate families.CWatching a funny family comedy.DHer husbands words of comfort.解析：细节理解题。根据第五、六段可知，看着电视里那些年轻的、出生入死的士兵，作者想到了他们的家人是如何提心吊胆，从而想到自己的家庭是多么幸福。答案：B3What does the underlined word “negligible” in Paragraph 6 mean?ASerious.
