1.influence對(duì)比李文的父母外出找工作前后李文的行為和思想表現(xiàn)；下文“他變得對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)不感興趣、逃課、考試不及格”等情況的出現(xiàn),可知是李文不高興的情緒“影響”了他的學(xué)業(yè)。influence(v.)意為“影響”。WhileReadingTask32.absent由上下文“他對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)不再感興趣”、“他考試不及格”,關(guān)鍵詞classes,可推測(cè)“他經(jīng)常缺課”,absent(adj.)意為“缺席,不在”。3.boardingschool上文“…h(huán)ewasabsentfromclassesandfailedhisexaminations和LiWen’sparentsmadethedecision”可知其父母送其去了一所寄宿制學(xué)校。4.inperson下文“Hisparentstooka24-hourtrainanda5-hourbusridetogettoLiWen’sschool.”,可知其父母費(fèi)如此大的周折趕回家來,就是因老師的建議“親自和他們的兒子進(jìn)行交談”,故inperson意為“親自地”。Makesentenceswiththesefourwordsandshareyoursentenceswithyourpartner.
