【解析】
这篇短文主要描述了中美学生的书包都很重，这会对学生的身体造成不良影响。专家对此提出了建议，并号召老师和家长采取适当的措施。
【1】句意：我相信你这个年龄的很多孩子会说“是的”。
根据句意理解及句中的lots of children可知，这里表达的是“你这个年龄的”，英语中“年龄”是age，而这里指的是“你的年龄”，所以应该用单数形式，故答案为age。
【2】句意：医生们开始担心年轻学生的背部和颈部有问题。
根据句意理解及句中的younger students are having back and neck problems. 年轻的学生有背部和颈部的问题。可知这里表达的是“担心”，英语是worry，空格前有to，所以这里用动词原形，故答案为worry。
【3】句意：我很难带着包上楼，因为它太重了。
根据句意理解及后句go upstairs with my bag because it’s so heavy可知，这里表达的是“很难”，英语是hard，是一个形容词，在句中放在be动词后面作表语，故答案为hard。
【4】句意：他是那些有两条背带的普通书包的学生之一。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“在……中”，英语是among，是一个介词，这里指的是“很多学生中的一个”，故答案为among。
【5】句意：医生说学生携带的书包的重量不应超过自身体重的10%到15%。
根据句意理解及前句But how much is too much?可知，这里表达的是“重量”，英语是weight，是一个不可数名词，故答案为weight。
【6】句意：孩子们失去了平衡，拿着书包摔倒了。
根据句意理解及后句falling down with their school bags.可知，这里表达的是“失去”，英语是lose，而空格前有are，所以这里应该用ing形式，故答案为losing。
【7】句意：家长和老师开始告诉孩子们当晚只带要看的书回家。
根据句意理解及后句books they will be reading that night.可知，这里表达的是“只有”，英语是only，是一个副词，故答案为only。
