【4】句意：伊麗莎白的朋友們不明白，既然她已經(jīng)有那么多孩子要撫養(yǎng)，為什么還要付出那么多。根據(jù)下文"Well," Elizabeth explained to her friends, 伊麗莎白向她的朋友解釋說(shuō)，結(jié)合首字母提示，可知朋友們不知道原因，故填why。

【5】句意：伊麗莎白向她的朋友解釋說(shuō)。本句缺謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，根據(jù)上文Elizabeth’s friends could not understand why she wanted to give so much和首字母提示，可知這里解釋了原因，故填explained。
