According to Freud, however, impulses that have been repressed continue to exist and demand expression。
Where would the sentence best fit?
The Psychodynamic Approach。 Theorists adopting the psychodynamic approach hold that inner conflicts are crucial for understanding human behavior, including aggression。 Sigmund Freud, for example, believed that aggressive impulses are inevitable reactions to the frustrations of daily life。 Children normally desire to vent aggressive impulses on other people, including their parents, because even the most attentive parents cannot gratify all of their demands immediately。■ Yet children, also fearing their parents’ punishment and the loss of parental love, come to repress most aggressive impulses。■The Freudian perspective, in a sense, sees us as “steam engines。”■By holding in rather than venting “steam,” we set the stage for future explosions.■Pent—up aggressive impulses demand outlets. They may be expressed toward parents in indirect ways
such as destroying furniture, or they may be expressed toward strangers later in life。
Step 1: According to Freud(扎眼词汇), however, impulses that have been repressed(信息词) continue to exist and demand expression。
特别提醒:不能只看impulses,因为本段中重复提到该词,必须结合它的修饰成分一起寻找才能够找到准确的对应位置。

插入句主干信息:However, impulses continue to exist and demand expression。

Consequently, tunas do not need to suck in water.
Where would the sentence best fit?

Step 1: Consequently, tunas do not need to suck in water。
Step 2: Accordingly, they have lost most of the muscles that other fishes use to suck in water and push it past the gills。
Step 3: Because they are always swimming, tunas simply have to open their mouths and water is forced in and over their gills。

Under different climatic conditions, another type of destructive force contributes to erosion。
Where would the sentence best fit?
Under very cold conditions, rocks can be shattered by ice and frost。 Glaciers may form in permanently cold areas, and these slowly moving masses of ice cut out valleys, carrying with them huge quantities of eroded rock debris。 ■ In dry areas the wind is the principal agent of erosion。 ■ It carries fine particles of sand, which bombard exposed rock surfaces, thereby wearing them into yet more sand。 ■ Even living things contribute to the formation of landscapes。 ■ Tree roots force their way into cracks in rocks and , in so doing , speed their splitting. In contrast, the roots of grasses and other small plants may help to hold loose soil fragments together, thereby helping to prevent erosion by the wind。
Step 1: Under different climatic conditions, another type of destructive force contributes to erosion。
Step 2: Under very cold conditions, rocks can be shattered by ice and frost。 Glaciers may form in permanently cold areas, and these slowly moving masses of ice cut out valleys, carrying with them huge quantities of eroded rock debris。
