They don't ( ) in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV

C

这个需要上下文联系

我找了一下原文

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents Every day they try to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me They don’t act as in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even out of the question Finally my father has a bad temper When he’s very tied from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper One day my mother was sewing a quilt I silently sat down beside her and looked at her “Mom, I have a question to ask you” I said after a while “What” she replied, still doing her work Is there love between you and dad” I asked in a very low voice My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes She didn’t answer immediately Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her I was in a great embarrassment and I didn’t know what I should do But at last I heard my mother say the following words “Susan,” she said thoughtfully “look at this thread Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable If life is the quilt, then love should be a thread It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there Love is inside I listened carefully but I don’t understand her until the next spring At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale It seemed both of them had had serious illness After they were back

文章说，作者怀疑他父母间的爱情。因为他们为作者和作者的兄弟挣钱，因此在生活里没有作者读到或看到的那样浪漫的方式这里是指父母平时的行为，所以要用act。

actvt& vi行动；做；表演；起作用n行为；动；（一）幕；（搭档）演出短节目的演员vt饰；演（戏）；把（感情、事件等）表演出来；使举止与…相称vi扮演；（在舞台上）表演；表现；（角色、戏等）能被（扮）演

而perform多指表演

第一，句子成分我就不分析了，空格前面的内容很明显要求这里要填一个动词的原型，后面的一大堆是一个名词性质的宾语。

第二，4个选项，hanker--渴望；desire，要求；except（这™是个介词，滚）；look forward to--期待。ABD意思上真的没什么区别，单从句意上来说，哪个都行。

第三，相信你也查过字典看过意思了。注意下字典上的标注，hanker，vi，这个动词是不及物的，没有后跟介词成分不能直接接名词；desire及物不及物都可以，但是desire及物的时候表示的是情欲或是很强烈的渴望。look forward to就是稍显平淡的期待了。

第四，其实2、4不是很好区分。想要真的理解劝你去看看朗文翻译。对于单词的记忆绝对不要去记忆中文的意思，而是去记忆实际意义。

　罗曼蒂克，外来词，英文romantic，又称为浪漫。

辞典上的解释是：富有诗意，充满幻想。

　　英文romantic

(浪漫的，激情的，也就是罗曼蒂克）,和romance（恋爱史、故事、浪漫）的词根都是rome,就是罗马。romance还有罗曼语系的意思。中世纪基督教欧洲（特别是生性拘谨的德国人、英国人，也就是盎格鲁-萨克逊族人）认为罗马和罗曼语系的人（例如西班牙人、意大利人等）具有一种异教、异域、异国情调的味道，而且他们似乎生性多情、放荡、多愁善感。听听西班牙语的音乐、看看他们的舞蹈和民俗（比如斗牛）就知道了。因此，romantic，原意是“罗马人的”，后来便引申出“浪漫、多情、爱情、激情”等等的意思来。德语roman还有“小说”的意思，即“虚构的、不真实的故事”之意。

铺设简介如下：

1、A、B、C、D、E、F代表同一编号产品的花色序号，不同产品的花色序号数量可能会有所区别。

2、无限连纹产品在铺贴前，需要做好产品编号、花色序号、铺贴顺序及方向的核对，以免影响最终的铺贴效果。

3、每6片一组为一个单位即ABCDEF，顺位连铺。

4、在铺贴六连纹大板时，需注意纹路方向，按砖底箭头同一方向铺贴。

5、建议留缝15-2mm，美缝剂选择和瓷砖相近的颜色，铺贴效果会更整体和美观。

6、选择同一批次同一色号的产品用在同一个空间。

7、为达到铺贴效果和产品利用率的最大化，终端在销售和铺贴连纹设计产品的时候，可根据同一编号各序号产品库存量的实际情况以及铺贴用砖的情况。

ROMANTIC无限连纹大板每一款都是一石6图案设计，完美模拟了天然石材的肌理和光泽，可以根据编号顺序，实现无限连纹铺贴，呈现连贯性、完整性的纹理展示，形成大面积的图案，让空间更显开阔大气。
