解析

试题分析：
小题1:making  本句中的现在分词making在句中做结果状语，表示意料之中的结果，地球的爆炸产生了多种气体，这些气体形成了地球的大气层。
小题2: that  本句是一个表语从句，that引导起这个表语从句，在句中不充当任何成分，只起引导和连接作用。
小题3: development 横线前面有the表示这里应该使用名词development的形式，指人类生命的发展。
小题4:harmful 后面有名词gases说明这里应该使用形容词harmful对名词进行修饰限制。
小题5:arrival 前面有定冠词the后面有介词of说明横线要填写的是名词arrival。
小题6: and    小型植物的出现导致了贝类动物和各种鱼类的发展。这两个短语是并列关系，故使用and连接。
小题7:that 本句是一个定语从句，that指代前面的先行词life forms在句中做主语。
小题8: appeared  本空的动词appeared是一个谓语动词与后面的spread是并列结构，都使用过去时。
小题9:the   后面有最高级most的形式，故使用the。
小题10:whether 本句是一个主语从句。地球上的生命是否能继续取决于现在的问题是否能够被解决。

What is a big dream ? （1）     Or , is a big dream something that provides only entertainment? Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers to realizing dreams. They often kill them before they ever have a chance to grow.
The Self
Immediately following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it cannot happen. This inside voice is the ego(自我). It’s there for protecting and should be listened to.（2）
Most people are influenced by the inside voice. That’s why only a handful of people make their dream come true.
（3）
Family and friends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won’t come true. Sometimes, family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind.
The World
If one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world. （4）     In the past, big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreamers just get laughed at.
The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to accept any failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. （5）
A.Family and Friends
B.How Big Dreams Die
C.Does a big dream show one’s future ?
D.They simply fail until they succeed.
E.It is the last and the most terrible barrier.
