本题为完形填空题型，需结合上下文语境、句子结构、语法规则及固定搭配完成填空。解题思路如下：1. 判断句子主语与动词的主被动关系，结合时间状语确定时态；2. 根据语境逻辑判断形容词的肯定或否定形式；3. 掌握固定短语的搭配结构；4. 根据名词修饰词确定名词单复数；5. 结合疑问词、反身代词、一般将来时的语法规则逐一分析每个空。
【解析】
1. 主语He是动作give的承受者，时间为过去，故用一般过去时的被动语态，填was given；
2. 结合语境“没有巨大努力，他不可能获得特殊奖项”，用possible的否定形式impossible；

4. 下文提到“教育秘诀”，此处询问“如何抚养优秀孩子”，填疑问词how；
5. 表示“更好的未来”，用good的比较级better；
