firstborn is, for a while, an only child, and therefore has a completely different experience of the parents than those born later. the next child is, for a while, the youngest, until the situation is changed by a new arrival. the mother and father themselves are changing and growing up too. one sibling might live in a stable and close family in the first few years; another might be raised in a family crisis, with a disappointed mother or an angry father.sibling competition was identified as an important shaping force as early as in 1918. but more recently, researchers have found many ways in which brothers and sisters are a lasting force in each otherslives. dr. annette henderson says firstborn children pick up vocabulary more quickly than their siblings. the reason for this might be that the later children arent getting the same one- on- one time with parents. but that doesnt mean that the younger children have problems with language development. later- borns dont enjoy that much talking time with parents, but instead they harvest lessons from bigger brothers and sisters, learning entire phrases and getting an understanding of social concepts such as the difference between “i” and “me”.a cambridge university study of 140 children found that siblings created a rich world of play that helped them grow socially. love- hate relationships were common among the children. even those siblings who fought the most had just as much positive communication as the other sibling pairs.one way children seek more attention from parents is by making themselves different from their siblings, particularly if they are close in age. researchers have found that the first two children in a family are typically more different from each other than the second and third. girls with brothers show their differences to a maximum degree by being morefeminine than girls with sisters. a 2003 research paper studied adolescents from 185 families over two years, finding that those who changed to make themselves different from their siblings were successful in increasing the amount of warmth they gained from their parents.1. the underlined part “in a different family” (in para. 1)

dramatically affected by certain kinds of travel experiences than i ever have.my trip to iceland is a fine example of that. the plan was to spend two days in a remote mountain hut in iceland. i was working on a photographic book about winter in iceland and needed to capture images of this amazing region of high mountain peaks, smoky volcanoes, and lakes with floating icebergs.the moment after we arrived, the weather turned extreme making visibility impossible. it snowed so much and the wind blew so hard that we couldnt leave the tiny hut. to stay warm, we walked around in circles much of the day inside the tiny hut. we tried to call for help but the radio did not work. day after day, we watched our supplies of food and fuel grow dangerously short. we got acute cabin fever (幽居病) and started going for walks and ski expeditions outside. even when the weather finally broke, nobody came to get us even though it was three days beyond our scheduled pickup. by the time the rescue team came to pull us out, we had all given up hope. from then on, the world looks different to me, as does my life. it would have taken me years of psychotherapy to get to the same point. almost everyone has a story to tell, and interestingly, most of these experiences were not altogether pleasant at the time. in fact, it appears that the most constructive life-changing journeys were those that involved some sorts of awful and uncomfortable events that forced the person to develop new resources, increase confidence, and solve problems in new ways.21. the writer went to iceland to _. a. enjoy the natural beautiful floating icebergs b. take photos about the region for a book c. collect materials for psychological research d. challenge the high mountains there22. during the trip in iceland,

outside d. got rescued immediately the weather turned fine24. which of the following statements is true according to the passage? a. the writer is a travel agent who loves difficult challenges. b. in
