【解析】试题分析：文章大意：这是一篇说明文。文章谈论了我们可以选择朋友，但我们不可以选择邻居。那么怎么才能和邻居很好的相处呢？文章作者给予我们一些建议。

1.1】them。考查代词用法。这里代词them代指前一句中的neighbors。然而，为了获得快乐的家庭生活，我们必须尽可能与他们相处好。

2.2】others。考查代词用法。这里others指“他人”。这里指邻居的一个重要的品质是为他人考虑。

3.3】which/that。考查定语从句关系词用法。句中先行词为things，在从句中作主语，故用关系代词which或that。这里人们不应当做那些不必要打扰他们邻居的事情。

4.4】and。考查连词用法。这里前后句之间为并列关系，故用连词and。比如，电视机不必开到最大音量，并且大声的流行音乐不应当在晚上放得很晚。

5.5】a。考查冠词用法。名词relationship是可数名词，故用不定冠词a。通过避免做让你邻居失望的可能的事情，你也许会享受和他们友好的关系。

6.6】but。考查连词用法。这里前后句为转折关系，故用连词but。邻居应当做他们所能做的去避免打扰他人，但是，有些时间一些层次的打扰是可以避免的。

7.7】If/When。考查连词用法。这里用If/When引导条件状语从句或时间状语从句。如果/当邻居想要彼此相处好（的时候），他们就必须容忍。

8.8】in。考查介词用法。这里考查短语in peace平静地，和平地。以这样的方法，每个人都将和平相处。
