A new family
It took Peter time to get used to living alone, without Fiona. He made it a weekly ritual to come to lunch with Steve and Ann on Sundays, and he had asked Paul to call him Grandpa as 30 ______ as he could talk. The young family and he filled a need for each other. They had created a family without a connection by blood, but their 31 ______ for each other was deep and heartfelt.
Steve was 32 ______ well in the diamond business under Peter’s tutelage. He had learned his lessons well and his knowledge of banking and finance helped too. He made sensible decisions and gave Peter good advice, which he valued. And with the commissions he earned, his savings were 33 ______.

They bought secondhand furniture and Ann upholstered it herself. The apartment they moved into became 34 ______when one of the old tenants left. Steve and Ann painted it themselves. The neighborhood had 35 ______ slightly in the five and a half years they’d been there. The building was no better, but they knew everyone in it, and it felt like home to them. The rents were incredibly cheap and what they could easily 36 ______. Ann never liked spending too much money.
Peter was about to turn seventy by then, and had had some health issues, but nothing serious. He had been thinking of making Steve a partner, since he had no son or other relatives to leave the business to.

Пояснение
Разбор.
В данном задании проверяется знание устойчивых сравнительных конструкций и лексической сочетаемости наречий времени.
Пропуск находится в первом абзаце текста: ...and he had asked Paul to call him Grandpa as 30 ______ as he could talk.
В английском языке для выражения значения «как только», «едва лишь» или «с того самого момента, как» используется устойчивое выражение as soon as. В контексте предложения Питер хотел, чтобы мальчик начал называть его дедушкой сразу же, как только научится разговаривать.
Рассмотрим, почему другие варианты не подходят:
- Вариант fast (быстро) относится к скорости движения или выполнения действия (например, run fast) и не образует временного союза в данной конструкции.
- Вариант quick (быстрый/быстро) чаще является прилагательным, описывающим короткий промежуток времени или быстроту реакции, и не используется в связке as ... as для обозначения момента начала действия.
- Вариант prompt (исполнительный/быстрый) является прилагательным, описывающим пунктуальность или отсутствие задержек, и грамматически не вписывается в структуру сравнительного оборота с as.
Таким образом, единственным верным лексико-грамматическим решением является наречие soon, которое в составе союза as soon as указывает на время совершения действия.
