Answer 1

分析 他學習比以前更努力
李文是一個來自鄉(xiāng)下的普通的十五歲男孩．他學習努力在學校表現(xiàn)好．很難相信他過去在學校有多麻煩．當他是小男孩的時候他極少有問題，他的家人花很多時間在一起．不幸的是，幾年前事情開始改變了，他的父母搬到城里去找工作，他的祖父母去照顧他．但是他非常想念，他經(jīng)常感覺孤獨不開心．
李文的不開心開始影響他的功課．他變得對學習沒興趣了．有時他曠課考試掛科．最終，李文的父母決定送他去寄宿學校．但是李文害羞不能很快交朋友．他發(fā)現(xiàn)那里的生活艱難．一天他告訴他的老師他想離開學校．他的老師很擔心他給他的父母打了電話．她建議他們親自與他們的兒子談談．所以他的父母乘了24小時的火車和5小時的汽車去李文的學校．
他們談了好久"這就是我需要的，現(xiàn)在我理解了即使他們忙，他們總是會想起我，他們以我做的一切好的事情自豪．"他說．
之后，李文的父母比之前更多的和他們的兒子交流．現(xiàn)在李文已經(jīng)變了．他變得更開朗在學校交了一些好朋友．他甚至參加了學�；@球隊，其他活動他也積極參加，李文說："我現(xiàn)在開心多了，我比以前更努力．我知道我的父母愛我以我為傲，對于父母來說和他們的孩子在一起很重要．"

解答 87．答案：of，decision．詞語填空題．第一個空格結合 take care 和句意是說祖父母來照顧他，故用take care of；第二個空格是說最終他的父母做了決定送他去寄宿學校，結合make a表示做決定用make a decision，故答案是of，decision．
88．答案：didn't pass．句型轉(zhuǎn)換題．結合原句He failed his examinations是說考試沒通過，通過用實意動詞pass，這里是一般過去時，否定式didn't pass，故答案是didn't pass．
89．答案：She advised them to talk with their son in person．漢譯英題．這里是說過去的事情用一般過去時，表示建議某人做某事用advise sb to do sth，主語she，故She advised them to，與某人談談用talk with sb，親自in person，故答案是She advised them to talk with their son in person．
90．答案：absent，seldom．詞性及詞義轉(zhuǎn)化題；absence是名詞缺席，根據(jù)Sometimes he was absent from classes 可知形容詞是absent，often是副詞經(jīng)常的，When he was a little boy，he seldom caused any problems中的seldom是副詞極少的，是often的反義詞，故答案是absent，seldom．
91．答案：Yes，I do．Because children need their parents'love．開放題．結合本文是說李文因為父母不在身邊感覺孤獨，也不愛學習了，后來父母經(jīng)常和他談心交流，李文就變了，李文認為It's very important for parents to be there for their children對于父母來說和他們的孩子在一起很重要，我認為是對的，故用肯定回答Yes，I do，因為我認為孩子需要父母的愛，故填Because children need their parents'love．故答案是Because children need their parents'love．
