【解析】

试题分析：这是一篇教育类短文，谈论的是青少年的父母对孩子教育的过分关注。当然教育对孩子很重要，而学会生存，学会怎样做一个合格的公民更为重要。

1.care about their children’s education more than anything else的意思是关心孩子的教育多于其它任何事情，故填else。anything else 形容词修饰不定代词要后置。

2.Many of them spend most of their spare time helping（帮助） their children with studies. 句意为他们中的许多人花费大部分的空闲时间帮助孩子学习。spend on\doing 花时间做某事，所以要用动名词形式，故填helping.

3.If they have no time or can’t do it themselves（他们自己）,意为：如果他们没有时间或者自己亲自做。主语为they,故反身代词为themselves。

4.they would hire family teachers or send（送） their children to after-class schools. 意为：他们将雇家教或送孩子到课后补习班。would是情态动词，所以其后动词要用原形，hire和send 皆为动词原形，故填send。

5.It seems as if a better education is all that parents expect（期待）for children.好似一个更好的教育就是家长对孩子所有的期待了。此处为动词，parents 为定语从句that parents expect（期待）for children的主语，是复数，故填动词原形expect。

6.many parents have realized（意识到）that 许多父母已经意识到，have realized现在完成时，故应填过去分词realized.

7.future success depends（取决于） more and more on skills and education,未来的成功越来越取决于技能和教育。success 为抽象名词，视为单数，所以depend要用第三人称单数形式depends。depend on 取决于，依赖，故填depends。

8.in a competitive(竞争的)society there are both losers and winners（胜利者）,此句的含义为：在一个充满竞争的社会里，既有胜利者也有失败者。losers为复数，所以winner 也要用复数形式，故填winners.

9.it is important（重要的） to learn to succeed 此句含义为：学会怎样获得成功很重要。It’s+adj.+to do sth.是一种很重要的句式，it 是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式。根据汉语提示，故填important。

10.but the first （第一）thing to learn is how to survive (生存), how to be a qualified citizen(合格的公民).句意为：但是首先要学的是如何生存，怎样成为一个合格的公民。first 第一，首先，故填 first。

考点：短文填空。
