选项 A、particularly
B、uniquely
C、subsequently
D、naturally

答案A

解析 词汇辨析题。该句表达的意思是:大多数孩子在很小的时候由关爱他们的父母养育时表现很好,但是到了青春期,来自同伴的竞争、受人欺负、被人拒绝等等,让他们产生了变化。显然,本句最后是介词短语引导的地点状语,这里指特别是在规模较大的高中学校会出现前面所说的状况。particularly意为"尤其,特别",句中使用particularly,指出容易出现青春期孩子受到环境影响、产生变化的具体环境。uniquely意为"惟一地",这个词过于绝对,根据常识可知,高中不可能是出现这一情况的惟一场所,故排除uniquely;subsequently意为"后来,随后",此词不符合句子语义逻辑关系;naturally意为"自然地",这种现象出现在高中并不是众所周知的事情,也不是自然而然的事情,因此排除。
