Certainly! Let's go through each blank and determine the best word choice based on the context of the passage.

  1. 1 ____ routine.

    • The sentence talks about starting anew each day and following a regular pattern of activities. The word "routine" suggests something that is done regularly or daily. Therefore, the correct choice here is:
      • A) daily
  2. We spend the evenings 2 _____ about what happened during the day.

    • This sentence refers to the activity of talking about daily events. While "debating" and "saying" may involve conversation, "discussing" and "talking" both fit a more general context of conversation. However, "talking" is more casual and fits better with the context of discussing daily events with children. Therefore, the correct choice is:
      • C) talking
  3. They have become a 3______ of my life.

    • The sentence suggests that the boys are an integral part of the speaker's life. "Bit" and "piece" imply something smaller or less integral, while "part" and "parcel" imply a significant component. "Part" is the more commonly used expression in this context. Therefore, the correct choice is:
      • B) part
  4. 4____ my expectations of them are high, I must remember that so much of what they see and understand is for the first time.

    • The sentence is contrasting high expectations with the need to be patient because the children are experiencing things for the first time. The word that best fits a contrasting context is:
      • C) although
  5. This world is a fast-paced, fast food, fast-internet place. 5_______ , no matter how fast things move, children will be children.

    • The sentence acknowledges the fast pace of the world but emphasizes that children remain unchanged by this pace. "Nevertheless" fits this context of contrasting the fast-paced world with the nature of children. Therefore, the correct choice is:
      • A) nevertheless
  6. but only if I am 6 ____ of the fact that it takes them longer to get somewhere.

    • The sentence implies the need for the speaker to be conscious or mindful of the children's developmental pace. "Aware" is the word that best fits this context. Therefore, the correct choice is:
      • C) aware
  7. They come 7_____ too many things that give them too much sadness.

    • In this context, the phrase suggests encountering or being faced with various sources of sadness. "Across" fits best when referring to encountering situations or challenges. Therefore, the correct choice is:
      • D) across

In summary, the correct words to fill the blanks are:

  1. A) daily
  2. C) talking
  3. B) part
  4. C) although
  5. A) nevertheless
  6. C) aware
