67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My mom is 83 years old and I love her deeply, but there are moments when my patience wears thin, especially
when I’ve repeated myself 10 times because she refuses to wear a hearing aid out of vanity (虚荣心).
Not long ago, we had a misunderstanding over her medication (药物治疗). She was still clear-minded, but of
course she forgot things at times and when I questioned her, she got defensive. When I saw she hadn’t been taking a
certain medication, anger replaced patience. She insisted she didn’t need it anymore; I accused her of ignoring the
doctor’s orders and putting her health at risk. We went back and forth, until I realized that she was crying.
My immigrant, hard-working mom had made a million sacrifices for us. Seeing her cry broke something
within me. My anger immediately disappeared and I hugged her.
Tears gave way to words. She said, “I am upset because I feel useless, because my body isn’t doing what it
used to and I even can’t make it to the market on my own.” Her words hit my heart and reminded me that she was
struggling with things I didn’t always see. In that moment, I knew my reaction had only added to her pain.
I messaged her doctor, who confirmed the medication had been removed. The shame I felt was so intense that
it made my stomach turn. I apologized. “Forgive me, mom. You’re right and they removed it. I’m so sorry.” And her
response was exactly what I knew it would be. She said, “No, it’s OK. I know you’re always looking out for me.”
She meant it, too. We talked a while longer, and the more she shared, the better she felt. Half an hour later she was
laughing and reminding me I’d promised to take her to the market she liked.
I was relieved she felt better, but I felt deeply unsettled. I felt a deep sense of shame. We had been raised to
respect our parents, to never raise our voices at them. However, that was exactly what I did.
