问题     Personality is to a large extent inherent — A-type parents usually bring about A-type【B1】______. But the environment must also have a【B2】______effect, since if competition is important to the parents, it is likely to become a major factor in the lives of their children.
    One place where children【B3】______up A-characteristics is school, which is, by its very nature, a highly competitive institution. Too many schools【B4】______the ’win at all costs’ moral standard and【B5】______their success by sporting achievements. The current【B6】______for making children compete against their classmates or against the clock produces a two-layer system, in which competitive A-types seem in some way better than their B-type fellows. Being too keen to win can have dangerous consequences: remember that Pheidippides, the first marathon runner,【B7】______dead seconds after saying "Rejoice, we conquer!"
    By far the worst form of competition in schools is the disproportionate【B8】______on examinations. It is a rare school that allows pupils to concentrate on those things they do well. 【B9】______.
    Obviously, it is neither practical nor desirable that all A-youngsters change into B’s.【B10】______. It is top management.
    If the preoccupation of schools with academic work was lessened, more time might be spent teaching children surer values.【B11】______. It is surely a mistake to choose our doctors exclusively from A-type stock. B’s are important and should be encouraged.
【B1】

选项

答案offspring

解析 由选项均以原形动词开头可知,本题可能考查建议或将来的动作。由文中提到的wake—up call,infected animals may infect their owners,pass the disease from person to person等可知,由猴子天花病的警示可推测,受到感染的动物会将疾病传染给人类,然后这些疾病会在人与人之间传播,即人类将面临许多新的疾病,A-type parents表明,本空应填一名词,且该名词的意思与parents对应。
