38、中的老大，从小被要求照顾小的，给兄妹树立好的榜样。父母老了，第一个关心照顾父母，认为照顾父母是自己的责任，但是其他的兄妹却只一味地推脱照顾老人的责任，这让作者深感遗憾。8. 推理判断题。根据第二段中的描述，作者的三兄弟姐妹相继出生后自己要为他们树立好的榜样，其他的人犯错不被处罚而我不能，描述老二用“逃学见男友” （skipped school to meet boys） ，老三”迷人的（attractive）男孩，老四的出生是个“surprise” ，而且一直被宠坏（spoiled）了。这一切的一切让我成为一个明白道理的、安静的成绩好的，做家务的，擅长做一切的人。由此可推断出作者所用语言有点苦
39、涩但风趣。分析选项可知 C 项符合文意，故选 C 项。9. 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Then came years of requests to look after the siblings（兄弟姐妹）, being urged that, You should be setting a better example,”（接下来是多年来被要求照顾兄弟姐妹，被敦促树立一个好的榜样。 ） ，根据常识这一切该是孩子的父母要求大的孩子照顾小的，要求大的给小的做榜样。故选 C 项。10. 猜测词义题。分析 To me, the dutiful first born, it feels like
40、the right and only thing to do; to be there for our parents as they were for us.本句中的 it 是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式 to do; to be there for our parents as they were for us.，即对我来说，第一个出生的一直尽职尽责的我，因为父母曾养育了我们，我们要照顾他们，这是正确的唯一要做的事。由此可知 it 指的是照顾老人。故选 A。11. 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，作者对父母尽心尽力地照顾，而其他的兄弟姐妹却置之不理，推脱责任，他们认为这只是我应该做
41、的事。作者认为非常遗憾，他们三兄妹不应该有这种感觉。由此可推断出作者对于其他的兄妹深表遗憾。故选 D 项。DThe Maltese Islands are rich in Neolithic (新石器时代的) sites.
