要点综述】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议的温情短文。作者数月前丧夫，生活暗淡。丈夫steve在世时家务和小修小补全包，所以当发现水龙头破裂时作者只好求助别人。
ahmed的无私相助和他的类似的经历使作者感到人间温情仍存。
16．a 虽然只是需要修理，但一想到这个麻烦，“我”便感到头疼。hurt在此表示“伤痛”。
17．b 夫妻过去共同享受生活。

19．b shelter在此处是动词，表示“庇护”，相当于protect。
20．a 因为丈夫过早离世，作者感到十分难受，十分倦怠，所以忽略了家，此处显示了作者消极的生活态度。
21．b come up with想起来；face up to勇于面对困境；look forward to期待 step away from远离。此处选face up to表示作者只能选择面对挑战。

23．d 下文对ahmed的工作能力进行了评价： 和她丈夫steve一样干得好。由此可知，steve的修理工作做得很好。
