1.【解析】該題考察條件狀語從句的用法。If 引導條件狀語從句，主句是a little the healthy worrying is okay。Like having a doctor look at that weird spot on your back是插入成分，表示舉例說明建設性行為。

答案及解析
1.It is evident
【解析】該題考點為主語從句后置，句首it充當形式主語
2.That nearly all behavior is learned behavior
【解析】該題考察主語從句的用法。主語從句需有連接詞that引導，且不能省略(引導賓語從句的that可以省略)
選做★：whether he is prepared to work hard
【解析】該題考察表語從句的使用，前文中表示never in doubt,即為肯定之意，而后文中用but轉折，表示與前文不一樣的感情色彩，即有些懷疑，所以應用表示不確定的引導詞whether或if;由于if不能用在表語從句中，故只有使用whether.
