If you have a brother or a sister, you already know you are different from each other. You live together in the same house and have the same parents. 1. Why is this? One possible reason is the way your parents treat you.

First—born children receive all the attention from their parents. Most families have much more photos of a first—born than any other child. Parents give them more responsibility（責(zé)任）. 2. As a result, first—borns are often responsible, hard—working and serious. They often want to do well at school and work. 3. For example, Gorge Bush, George Washington, and Lyndon Baines Johnson are all first—born.

When a second child arrives, parents are more relaxed. The second child is allowed to be more independent. But he also has to compete with the first—born for the parents’ attention and love. These children often choose different sports and hobbies to show independence. 4. They are often adventurous（愛(ài)冒險(xiǎn)的）, fun—loving, and outgoing, but can be jealous（好嫉妒的）and get angry easily.

The youngest child is the happiest. He has fewer responsibilities and more freedom. These children do not feel pressure to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family’s attention. 5.So, many famous talk—show hosts and comedians were born last.

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：浙江省2016-2017學(xué)年八年級(jí)下學(xué)期第三次獨(dú)立作業(yè)測(cè)試英語(yǔ)試卷 題型：閱讀理解

One day when I was going for a walk, I found a small egg in the grass. There were little blue dots(點(diǎn)) on it. “__▲__” I wondered. My elder sister was taking science lessons at high school. I knew she could tell me the answer.

When I got home, I watched the small egg carefully. Tap tap tap! The sound came from the egg. A small brown beak (鳥喙) came out from the egg. “It’s a bird!” I cried. I didn’t have to wait for my sister’s answer anymore.

“It must come from the robin’s nest in the front yard,” Mom saw the egg and said. “If we return it to the nest now, its mother will take care of it when it hatches(孵化).” “But I want to keep it as a pet!” I said. “The baby bird needs its mother. And we don’t know how to keep a baby bird.” I knew my mom was right and returned the egg to the nest.

One morning, not too long after finding the egg, my mother called me out to the yard. “Look!” She said. I looked up and saw the baby bird. Its mother was feeding it! It looked strong and happy.

“Aren’t you glad we found the bird’s home?” Mom asked.

“Yes!” I was glad that I had given the baby bird back to its mother.
