10.Were you the first or the last child in your family?Or were you a middle or an only child?Some people think (61)it matters where you were born in your family.But there are different ideas about what birth order means.Some people say that oldest children,(62)whoare smart and strong-willed(意志坚强的),are very likely (63)to succeed(succeed).The reason (64)for this is simple.Parents have a lot of time for their first child and give him or her a lot of attention.An only child will succeed for (65)the same reason.What happens to the (66)other children in the family?Middle children don't get so much attention,so they don't feel that important.If a family has many children,the middle one sometimes gets lost in the crowd.The youngest child,(67)however/though,often gets special treatment.Often this child grows up to be funny.But a recent study saw things quite (68)differently(difference).The study found that first children believed in family rules.They didn't take many chances in (69)their lives.They usually (70)followed(follow) orders.Rules didn't mean as much to later children in the family.They took chances and they often did better in life.
分析 有人认为一个人出生在家庭中的什么位置是很重要的,通常最大的和最小的孩子容易得到重视和照顾,中间的孩子却常被忽视.
解答 61.it;考查固定句型,it在这里做形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的where you were born in your family..
62.who;考查定语从句,先行词是oldest children,在非限制性定语从句中充当主语,故答案为who.
63.to succeed;考查固定搭配,be likely to do sth.是固定搭配,意为"可能做某事".
64.for;考查固定搭配,the reason for …"…的理由".句意"这个理由很简单."故答案为for.
65.the;考查定冠词,same常与定冠词the连用.the same reason意为"同样的理由".
66.other;考查形容词,此处指的是除了长子之外的其他孩子.the other children"其他孩子".
67.however/though;前面是在讲中间的孩子比较容易走丢.然而,最小的孩子会得到专门的照顾,故用however/though表示句意转折.
68.differently;考查副词,此处用副词differently作状语修饰动词saw,故答案为differently.
69.their;考查形容词性物主代词,主语是they,此处指的是在他们的生命中.句意"在他们的生命中没有很多机会."故答案为their.
70.followed;考查动词的时态,整篇文章是过去时,所以此处follow谓语动词用一般过去时.故答案为followed.
