态度题。倒数第二段“NO matter.Seeing my adult son willingly cleaning that dirty bathtub gives me hope for the future of his l2-year-old brother wh0,instead of workin9,is found to be sleeping in the seat of the window he is supposed to be cleanin9.”和倒数第四段均是作者对大儿子主动承担清扫任务的反应,表明作者感到宽慰也比较乐观。故[c]为答案。虽然作者在倒数第三段提到自己对儿子主动承担清扫任务诸多原因的分析,但下一段首旬的nomatter表明她并不真的在乎原因,所以[A]中的skeptical不符合文意;文中也没有表现出作者的犹豫不决,排除[B]和[D]。
