　　答案：

　　1.[family,work,and service]

　　[定位]根據(jù)Hillary Rodham Clinton和the balance查找到文章首段。

　　解析：首段中希拉里的話表明她盡力尋找的生活中的平衡就是家庭、工作和服務(wù)。對(duì)比該句與題目可以知道，本題答案為family，work, and service。

　　2.[took part in/participated in school government]

　　[定位]根據(jù)Wellesley College查找到第2段首句。

　　解析：題目中的not only... but also對(duì)應(yīng)原文中的mixed... with，本題空白處應(yīng)填入謂語(yǔ)，所必在原文school government前加上相應(yīng)的動(dòng)詞(短語(yǔ))即可，故本題答案為took part in/participated in school government。

　　3.[the chairwoman]

　　[定位]根據(jù)the Arkansas Educational Standards Committee查找到第5段第2句。

　　解析：原文該句中說到她出任過阿肯色州教育標(biāo)準(zhǔn)委員會(huì)主席，但用的是動(dòng)詞chaired，題目空白處應(yīng)填入名詞，且應(yīng)注意希拉里是女性，因此答案為chaired的名詞形式the chairwoman。

　　4.[an active role]

　　[定位]根據(jù)the Task Force on National Health Care Reform查找到第6段第2句.

　　解析：原文該句提到，克林頓總統(tǒng)請(qǐng)她負(fù)責(zé)管理國(guó)家醫(yī)療服務(wù)改革特別工作組的事務(wù)，她開始積極履行職責(zé)。題目中的incharge of對(duì)應(yīng)原文中的chair，因此本題答案為an active role。

　　5.[A Grammy Award.]

　　[定位]根據(jù)It Takes a Village and Other Lessons Children Teach Us查找到原文末句。

　　解析：原文末尾的it指1996年出版的那本書，同時(shí)get是received的同義替換，所以received的賓語(yǔ)a Grammy Award為本題答案。
