To say that the child learns【C1】______imitation and that the way to teach is to set a good example oversimplifies. No child imitates every【C2】______he sees. Sometimes, the example the parent wants him to【C3】______is ignored while he takes over contrary patterns from some other example. Therefore we must turn【C4】______a more subtle theory than "Monkey see, monkey do". Look at it from the child's point of view. Here he is in a new situation, lacking a【C5】______response.

【答案解析】解析：本题考查语义理解。ready“现成的”，immediate“立刻的”，good“好的”，reasonable“理智的”。文章讲的是孩子没有现成的模式去应对新环境，因此答案为ready。同时，根据下文中“if he lacks a ready response”可知，此处正确答案为A。
【答案解析】解析：本题考查并列结构。A and B中，并列成分词性一致，语义走向一致，即空格处应该填入与affection走向一致的词。同时此处是父母与子女的关系，故approval最恰当。like不做名词，love是最基本的爱，这不受到孩子处理方式的影响。consent来自同级之间的赞同或首肯，approval则是上下级之间、长辈与晚辈之间的批准。
