Unit 16: Participles as adjectives: -ed/-ing adjectives

Complete gap 1. It was Christmas day again and my two sons were 1 ___ at the prospect of unwrapping all the 2 ___ boxes that lay around the Christmas tree. I was 3 ___ about giving them their presents, but also a bit 4 ___ because I didn’t want to 5 ___ them again. There’s nothing more 6 ___ than a child with a 7 ___ present in their hands. That’s what had happened the year before. When my elder son opened his present I was 8 ___ to see how 9 ___ he was with his new toy. It was 10 ___ . But now it would be different, because I knew exactly what they really wanted. I had swallowed my pride and called my ex-wife to ask about what our children really wanted. When they were unwrapping the presents, I was concentrating on their expressions, and it was so 11 ___ to see the joy in their eyes! They were totally 12 ___ to see they were the new owners of an X-box with countless games. It was a 13 ___ scene. And I was so 14 ___ to see that this year I hadn’t failed them that I forgot about how much the idea of video games 15 ___ me.
