【解析】

试题分析：通过本文考查学生正确运用英语单词的能力。

【1】why 考查连接词。句意：这就是说话之前想一想的原因。表语从句用why表示原因。

【2】intention 考查名词。句意：不要许下任何你不想信守的承诺。名词作宾语，intention意为“目的，意图”。

【3】them 考查代词。句意：孩子们不会忘记你承诺他们的事情。这里用them指代上文出现的名词Children。

【4】eventually 考查副词。句意：不信守诺言的父母最终会失去孩子的尊重。这里用副词修饰句子，故用eventually。

【5】also 考查固定句型。not only…but also不仅…而且。句意：你不仅会失去孩子的尊重，而且给他们树立坏榜样。故此空用also。

【6】to 考查介词。句意：当你信守诺言时，你是在教他们信任你。这里teach sb to do 教某人做。故这里用to。

【7】are disappointing 考查时态。句意：每次你违反诺言，你都会让孩子很失望，并且让他/她感觉他/她们对你不重要。这里根据下文and making可知，这里用are disappointing。

【8】reliable 考查形容词。句意：信守诺言会告诉你的孩子你很可靠，他们可以依靠你。用形容词与系动词构成系表结构，故用reliable。

【9】If 考查连词。句意：如果你的孩子在生活中的小事中信任你，他们最终会在大事上信任你。根据句意可知用if。

【10】understands 考查主谓一致。句意：确保你的孩子理解你意识到你失信了。主语是your child，故动词用understands。
