问题     Crying and waking up in the middle of night are routine during any newborn’s first few months. But if those  crying  episodes  continue  on a regular【C1】________past the first year, then they may signal possible behavioral problems【C2】________.
    That’s what researchers in Europe found when they【C3】________nearly two dozen studies on something developmental experts call regulatory problems—which include trouble sleeping, continuous crying and difficulty feeding. The researchers【C4】________in the journal Archives of Disease in Childhood that infants who consistently cry and wake up at night past their third month are nearly twice as likely to【C5】________problems such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depression, anxiety, aggressive behavior or【C6】________disorders by the time they begin school. The most【C7】________behavioral difficulties these children had involved【C8】________of self-control, and an inability to calm themselves down or act【C9】________in different social situations.
    How exactly are【C10】________crying jags and picky eating during infancy【C11】________later behavioral problems? Dieter Wolke, one of the study co-authors and a professor of developmental psychology at University of Warwick in England, says the data don’t support any【C12】________link, but there are several possibilities. One, the crying and waking up at night are simply the first signs of behavioral problems that the babies can not【C13】________themselves very well. Every baby wakes up several times a night and may start crying, but most will eventually learn to calm themselves down and【C14】________back to sleep. They learn that enough is enough and inevitably【C15】________that Mom and Dad won’t come running every time they cry. If babies are already【C16】________to contracting a behavioral disorder,【C17】________, they may not be able to learn such self-control, and their crying episodes may continue well past their first year.
    【C18】________, says Wolke, some infants may be genetically susceptible to problems regulating their behavior; specifically, scientists have recently identified a version of a【C19】________concerning  dopamine  function,  which governs mood and emotions as well as motor function, that may make some infants more【C20】________to behavioral problems.
【C20】
选项 A、attentive
B、careless
C、vulnerable
D、fragile
答案C
解析 本段第一个分句“有些婴儿由于遗传因素，在规范自己的行为方面更容易产生问题”，本空格所在分句应该是具体说明受到多巴胺影响的婴儿更容易出现行为问题，和句首呼应，故选C项vulnerable“易受损害的”。A项attentive“注意的，周到的”，代入句中不合逻辑。B项careless“不小心的”后接to时，一般都是不定式短语to do sth.。D项fragile“易碎的，虚弱的”，这个词后面不应该有to。
