Orbits of asteroids for which the ratio of their mean motions to the one of Jupiter is close to (k+3)/k, where k is an integer, are discussed. The internal variant of the restricted three-body (the sun, Jupiter and an asteroid of negligibly small mass) problem is examined. The solution of equations for phase trajectories describing the evolution of the orbits is obtained in terms of Weierstrass' functions. The solution of the entire problem of the evolution of the orbits of resonance asteroids for the commensurabilities under consideration is facilitated, classification of phase trajectories becomes identical to the classification developed for first-order commensurabilities, and analysis of the motion of apsidal lines is simplified.
