【分析】
做这类阅读理解题，需先通读原文了解三张情感卡片的内容，再针对每道题的题型（词义猜测、细节理解、主旨大意），带着问题回原文定位关键信息，结合上下文逻辑分析选项。词义猜测题要关注上下文的转折等逻辑；细节理解题需精准匹配原文对应句子；主旨题要整体把握内容。
【解析】
1. 词义猜测题：定位到第一封信中“drive me up the wall”所在句，后文转折词“but”表明前后语义相反，后文是“不会改变你任何事”（正面表述），前文提到“loud music”，结合选项，C“让我生气”符合语境；
2. 细节理解题：第一封信中爸爸明确写了“I love you so much”，说明他非常爱儿子，A正确；B错误，爸爸只是提及儿子的 loud music，并非自己喜欢；C错误，爸爸提到了儿子的小问题（loud music）；D错误，未要求儿子停止播放 loud music；
3. 细节理解题：Tina的信中描述Penny“You laugh all the time, and you have no worries”，对应选项D“快乐且无忧无虑”；
4. 细节理解题：Amy的信开头祝妈妈生日快乐，还感谢妈妈的照顾，对应选项D；
