八年级（上）Units 3~4 （建议用时：25分钟） 河南英语RJ 英语 1 一、选择型阅读 Are you an oldest child, a middle child, a youngest child or an only child? Nowadays, it is an accepted fact that our positions in the family possibly have the strongest influence on our characters. Firstborn children often have to look after their younger brothers and sisters, so they’re usually responsible as adults. They may also be ambitious（有雄心的） and they make good leaders. However, the oldest children can be . .insecure. This is because when the second child is born, they lose some of their parents’ attention. 2 Middle children are more relaxed than the oldest children, probably because their parents will be more relaxed themselves when the second child arrives. They’re usually very sociable—the kind of people who get on with everybody. They are also more aware（知道） of what other people need, because they grow up between older and younger brothers and sisters. For the same reason, they’re often quite good at solving arguments. On the other hand, middle children sometimes are not ambitious and don’t have directions in life. The youngest children are often very outgoing. This is the way they try to get the attention of both their parents and their older brothers and sisters. But they might depend too much on other people, because they have always been the baby of the family. Only children usually do very well at school, because they have a lot of contact（联系） with adults. They get a lot of love and attention from their parents, so they’re often very self-confident（自信的）. They’re also independent, as they spend much time by themselves. But they might get quite selfish and impatient. 【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了兄弟姐妹的不同排行会影响一个人的性格。 1.What does the underlined word “insecure” in Paragraph 2 mean?___ A.
