第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
    My two kids and I were at Dunkin' Donuts, meeting my grandfather for a cup of coffee.My boys were 2 and 4 then. When the naughty little kid   21   his icecream in the middle of the store, I turned to my grandfather for   22  . I was surprised to find him laughing. When I tried to talk to him about how    23   life  with two young boys is, his reply was short, “Little kids,  24   problems.”
At the time, I felt a little angry. The   25   of raising my two boys didn't feel little.I sometimes felt overwhelmed (不知所措的) by their problems and needs. Still, I knew how to   26   them. I could calm my elder son down with his favourite CD and smiled at him in the rear­view mirror (后视镜). Back then, “fixing their problems” seemed like my   27  . I did it every day. And, in general, I could fix most things that annoy them.
Those boys are 24 and 22 now. And,   28   my grandfather said, their problems are bigger than they were 20 years ago. And one thing I'm   29   at this stage of parenting is how to be a mom who doesn't help them. Worried about my elder son recently, I repeated my   30   to him, but he told me to  stop—told me that I wasn't being   31   and that I needed to let him be.
Honestly, I miss the days when I felt so helpful. But I also feel   32   that I've raised an adult healthy enough to   33   his own life.And so, in a   34   reversal(互换), it is my son who now calms me down,  35   me and then smiles at me from his rear­view mirror.
