_________

When another city has good services, people want to move there. For example, families want to live in a city with good hospitals and schools.

【题目】 Middle children are more likely to grow up to become successful adults, a study has claimed.

Far from being cold or shy, researchers found that a middle child’s place in the family helps them develop communication skills.

Psychologist Catherine Salmon believed that middle children are more likely to “become leaders of change in business, politics and science” ---- a conclusion that middle children such as Madonna and Bill Gates would probably support. And they are also more likely to have the drive to succeed in the workplace.

Professor Salmon, who wrote The Secret of Middle Children, said, “As children, middles have to wait a lot. Modern middles wait while their younger sister or brother is placed into the car seat. They wait the firstborn performs in the concert. They wait to be served at the dinner table and praised for their hard work in school. Middles are used to not getting what they want right away. They learn to wait, and this helps them later in life. ”

________, Professor Salmon also found that middle children repot feeling more distant from their parents and are more likely to be easily influenced by their friends. She added, “Middles get less time, attention and resources from the parents, and they often feel painful. But this seems to be short-lived. There is no doubt that this lack of attention can lead to the development of some extremely useful skills.”

1According to the first and second paragraph, middles are more likely to be _____.

A.coldB.successfulC.rudeD.shy

2Why would Madonna and Bill Gates probably support this idea?

A.Because they make the conclusion.

B.Because they believe that middles will become leaders of change in business.

C.Because they like to drive to their workplace.

D.Because they are the middle children who are successful.

3Middles have to wait EXCEPT ________.

A.while their elder sister or brother performs in the concert.

B.while their younger sister or brother gets out of the car

C.while other children are served at the dinner table

D.while other children are praised for their hard work at school

4Which sentence can be put in the bank in the last paragragh?
