【语篇导读】　我们可以选择朋友，却无法选择邻居；因此处理好邻里关系至关重要。该篇文章主要说明如何处理好邻里关系。

1．them　[根据句式结构此处缺少get along with的宾语，根据上下文句意所填词汇应是前文提到的neighbors，故用代词them。]

2．others　[根据句式结构此处缺少介词for的宾语，应填名词或代词，根据下文意思可以总结出“好邻居的重要品质是为他人着想”，故填others。]

3．that/which　[分析结构可知此句中需要填的是定语从句的引导词，先行词是things指物，在从句中做主语，故用that/which。]

4．and　[此处缺少连词，根据句意可知上下文是并列加顺延的关系，故用and。]

5．a　[此处考查冠词。relationship此处作可数名词，且第一次出现，用a。]

6．but　[此处缺少连词。根据语境：“邻居们应该尽其所能避免打搅别人，但有时一些搅扰是不可避免的”。此处上下文是转折关系，故用but。]

7．If/When　[此处缺少连词。根据句意：“如果邻居们想要和睦相处他们应互相忍让。”所填词汇应能引导条件状语或时间状语从句，故用If或When。]

8．in　[此处考查固定短语的介词搭配。根据句意，这样，大家都能和平共处，故用in，“in peace”和平地。]
