SIBLINGS When, we are children, our sibling - that is, our brothers and sisters - are our first friends and first enemies. At the end of life, they are often our oldest friends and oldest enemies. The effect of sibling relationships in childhood can last a lifetime. Many experts say that the relationship among brothers and sisters explains a great deal about family life, especially today when brothers and sisters often spend more time with one another than with their parents. Studies have shown that sibling relationships between sister-sister pairs and brother-brother pairs are different. Sister pairs are the closest. Brothers are the most competitive. Sisters are usually more supportive of each other. They are more talkative, frank, and better at expressing themselves and sharing their feelings. On the other hand, brothers are usually more competitive with each other. Experts agree that tfe relationship among siblings is influenced by many factors. For example, studies have shown that both brothers and sisters become more competitive and aggressive when their parents treat them even a little bit differently from one another. But parental treatment is not the only factor. Genetics, gender, life events, people, and experiences outside the family all shape the lives of siblings. Recently, one researcher demonstrated another factor in sibling relationships. It was discovered that children dislike watching their siblings fight. In fact, they respond to arguments by taking sides -supporting one sibling and punishing the other. 46. What is the main idea of the first paragraph? A. Siblings are our oldest friends in life. B.

Today they live mostly in northeastern Arizona, at the edge of The Painted Desert. Something that sets the Hopi off from other cultures is that it is in some senses a maternal rather than a paternal culture. The Hopi are divided into clans, or families, along maternal lines, and, as a result, a child becomes a member of the mother's clan rather than the father's. In addition, ownership of property, such as land and houses, passes from mother to daughter instead of from father to son, as it does in other Native American cultures. However, women do not have all the power in this culture. Societal authority still rests in the hands of men, but that authority does pass to men from their mothers. 46.
