【解析】本文讲述的是被妻子认为是一位伟大的英雄的Hudson的故事。Hudson以照顾好自己的孩子为工作，他每天忙忙碌碌，为孩子们奔波。他的妻子是一位成功的银行家，她对丈夫充满感激，认为自己的成功离不开丈夫的支持。

1.由前句：Hudson是一位当代英雄，但不像电影里的英雄，也不像救人生命的消防员一样。可以推测出本空是对Hudson的进一步介绍。故填：A.He is just an ordinary(普通的)man—a father of four children.他只是一位普通的男人：一位有四个孩子的爸爸。

2.本空前后句子都介绍的是Hudson忙碌的日子：前句说到：早上他为孩子和妻子做好早餐，然后开车送孩子们上学；后句：而且，打扫房屋和洗餐具也是他的日常工作。可知本空还是选填介绍Hudson很忙的句子。故填：D.While the elder children are at school, he has to look after the youngest one.当大孩子在学校时，他必须照顾小孩子。

3.由后句：当他做完饭时，他需要喂他的小孩子。可知本句与做饭相关。故填：B.Cooking dinner is also an important task.做晚饭也是一项重要的事情。

4.上文讲述到孩子们睡前时Hudson要做的事情，可以推测出本空讲孩子们睡后他要做的事情。故填：F.When his children fall asleep, he can relax for a while.当孩子们睡着了，他可以休息一会儿。

5.前句：但她把她的成功归功于她的丈夫。后句：有这样的一位丈夫她感到很高兴。由此可以推测出本空讲述的是她与丈夫相关的东西。故填：E.She is very thankful to his help.对他的帮助，她非常感激。
