If he spends most of his time playing about in __7__ the way that he used to as a child, he will suffer hungry. __8__ And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, therefore, __9__ he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health,he can have the great happiness of seeing himself making __10__ steady progress in his job and of building up for himself his own position in society.

　　答案：

　　1.what改为whatever。whatever引导让步状语从句，相当于no matter what，意思是“无论什么”，“不管什么”，whatever在从句中作宾语。

　　2.turn改为return。短语in turn表示“轮流地; 挨个, 依次; 反过来”，而在这里是指孩子对父母的回报。

　　3.interesting改为interest。在形容词性物主代词their的后面应跟名词性成分。

　　4.第一个do改为 are。与前面的'is相对应。

　　5.that改为what。that引导的是定语从句，在本句中应该使用关系代词what，相当于the thing/ things that。

　　6.not改为no。固定搭配的副词短语“no longer”

　　7.comfortable改为comfortably。修饰动词live应为副词而不是形容词。

　　8.suffer改为go或become或be。或把hungry改为hunger。

　　9.therefore改为however。此处的条件状语从句表示转折。

　　10.making 改为 make。
