问题     The process of acquiring the self-discipline for Japanese begins
in childhood. Indeed, one may say it begins at birth—how early the
Japanese child is given his own identity! If I was to define in a word【S1】______
the attitude of the Japanese toward their children, I would put it in a【S2】______
concise word—Love! Yes, abundance of love, warmly expressed
from the moment which he is put to his mother’s breast. For a【S3】______
mother this nursing of her child is psychologically important.
    Rewards are frequent, a bit of candy bestowing at the right【S4】______
moment, an inexpensive toy. For time to enter school comes, however,【S5】______
discipline becomes firmer. To bring shame to the family is greatest【S6】______
shame for the child.
    What is the secret of the Japanese teaching of self-discipline?
It lies, I think, in the fact which the aim of all teaching is the【S7】______
establishment of habit. Rules are repeated over and over, and
continually practiced until obedience becomes instinctive. This
repetition is enhanced by the expectation of the elders. They expect
a child to obey and to learn through obedience. The demand is
gentle at first and tempering to the child’s tender age. It is no more【S8】______
gentle as time goes on, but certainly it is increasingly inexorable.
    Now, far away from that warm Japanese home, I reflect what I【S9】______
learned there. What, I wonder, will take place of the web of love【S10】______
and discipline which for so many centuries has surrounded the life
and thinking of the people of Japan?
【S10】

选项

答案∧place—the

解析 冠词缺失。take place表示“发生”,take the place of sth.表示“代替某物”。此处句子的含义是“我不知道什么将会代替围绕日本人生活和思维方式几百年的爱和约束所形成的网。”因此应该使用take the place of。
