Laura, who was in first-year high, had gone to the same public school that her brothers now attended, but this year she was a pupil at Green Valley Academy, a small country day school on the outskirts of the city.
(41)______.
They knew Laura was smart, of course, but some of the other Baltimore private schools for girls were excellent and had lower tuitions, and even the public high schools were all right. Lots of nice kids, whose fathers had twice as big an income as Henry Wade, went to them.
(42)______.
You either spoiled her or made her bitter. These arguments were cogent, Emily Wade admitted, but they simply didn’t apply in Laura’s case.
(43)______.
Moreover, it was Emily’s theory that children learned love as well as discipline by family example; if you did all you could for them, keeping their best interests in mind, they wouldn’t let you down in a crisis.
(44)______.
How true that had been, thought Emily, driving slowly because she had a quarter hour to spare and she might as well give Laura time to study. Her mind went back to that black moment, a month before, when she had met Henry for lunch in a restaurant and he had told her that he was out of a job.
(45)______.
He was pretty sure he could get another and a better position; there was a firm that had been making overtures to him, and only a sense of loyalty to his old firm had made him ignore them up to this point. But the man he’d have to see was out of town and wouldn’t be back until the first of the year. Then, too, he’d just had a letter from his brother in Ohio; it seemed that the whole family out there was shot to hell. His brother, who was a schoolteacher, was broke, his stomach ulcers were troubling him, one of his children had to have a serious operation, and his wife was about to have twins.
A. It was a very good school and a very expensive one, and most of the Wades’ friends thought they were being rather fancy in sending Laura there.
B. Nothing was too good for that child.
C. Besides, you weren’t doing a girl a favor when you encouraged her to develop taste she couldn’t afford to gratify.
D. The branch sales office he had been managing had been absorbed by a larger firm, and its whole staff was out in the cold without so much as a month’s salary to tide them over.
E. And events had certainly proved her theory.
F. They made her think of the ballerina dress, and of all the pure, proud, filmy beauty of the world that belonged, by tight, to Laura.
G. Christmas has been commercialized out of its real meaning.

该句前面提出韦德夫妇认为对女儿做什么都不过分并陈述了理由,那么按照常规接下来应该是用事实证明他们的想法没错。本文是节选部分,删节的内容是他们在圣诞节来临时由于把钱借给了自己的哥哥而无能力庆贺,恰在此时女儿劳拉理解父母的情况,把一个无钱庆贺的圣诞节过得更加有意义,正符合了韦德夫妇的观点:…在紧要关头他们 (指女儿)就不会令你失望。
