Growing up, I remember my father as a silent, strict man—not the kind of person around whom one could laugh. As a teenager knowing little about life, I wanted a father who could     【小题1】 the mysteries of the human journey. In college, when friends called home for     【小题2】, I would bee     【小题3】 for what I didn’t have.
Then one night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. There was some trouble. Later, he     【小题4】 the problem with me. Obviously my knowledge of law helped him a lot. I talked through the problem with him,     【小题5】 the motives of the people involved and offering several negotiation strategies.

Best of all, I nowadays regard my parents as     【小题18】: people who ask me for advice; people who need my     【小题19】 and understanding. And I’ve e to see my past in a     【小题20】 view. Knowing them makes me feel safe in where I e from and where I’m going.
