28、r third time. “TIME” has named a person of a year since 1927. The recipient is someone or some group that for better or worse is considered to have had a major _42_ on world events. It is decided by the editors of the _43_ magazine. Last year the title went to Ebola fighters and the year before that
29、, Pope Francis. TIME Magazine gave a number of reasons why it chose Merkel, from how shes handled Europes economic crisis, to how shes responded to terrorist attacks in the region, to how shes _44_ the continents ongoing refugee crisis.

31、rkel, the first woman to be named the title for 29 years, for her leadership during the refugee crisis. “At a moment when much of the world is once more _48_ in a debate about the balance between safety and freedom, the Chancellor is asking a great deal of the German people, and by their example, th

That may be why only children are more likely to show interest in academic _53_ rather than physical
35、or outdoor activities. An only child will tend to get more time and attention from their parents than children with siblings（兄弟姐妹） . This will often make them feel special but the downside is that they may suffer from _54_ and loneliness when friends discuss their brothers and sisters and family lif
36、e.” The first-born is an only child until the second child comes along _55_ them from being the centre of attention, to then sharing the care of parents. Parents will also expect them to be responsible and “set an example”. The change from being the focus of a family may be quite a _56_ and so shape
37、 the first-borns outlook on life. Therefore, first-borns may try to get back their parents attention and approval by achieving success in their career.

38、 sometimes be a(n) _58_ experience, especially if the child wants to be taken seriously. The last-born is more likely than the other birth-order positions to take up dangerous sports. This may be a _59_ of the last-borns rebellious characteristic a result of being _60_ up with always being bossed ab
39、out by everyone else in the family.
