Use clues from the passage to help you guess the meanings of the words in the box.
1. influence
對比李文的父母外出找工作前后李文的行為和思想表現(xiàn)；再由下文“他變得對學(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)。
故influence一詞意為“影響”。
2. absent
由上下文“他對學(xué)習(xí)不再感興趣”、 “他考試不及格”，以及關(guān)鍵詞classes，可以推測 “他經(jīng)常缺課”，可知absent意為“缺席，不在”。
3. boarding school
由上文“ …he was absent from classes and failed his examinations和Li Wen’s parents made the decision”可知其父母送其去了一所寄宿制學(xué)校。
4. in person
由下文“His parents took a 24-hour train and a 5-hour bus ride to get to Li Wen’s school.”，可知其父母費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行交談” ，故可推測in person意為“親自”。
Language points
It is hard to believe that he used to have difficulties in school.
It is hard to believe that …是一個含有賓語從句的復(fù)合句。主句中it作形式主語，真正的主語是that引導(dǎo)的從句。
► It is hard to believe that they finished so much work during such a short time. 在這么短的一段時間內(nèi)他們完成了如此多的工作, 這令人難以相信。
When he was a little boy, he seldom caused any
problems, and his family spent a lot of time together.
seldom 作副詞，意為“不常；很少”相當(dāng)于hardly ever, 其反義詞為often（經(jīng)常）通常置于實義動詞之前，助動詞、系動詞或情態(tài)動詞之后。
► She seldom goes out by herself. 她很少獨自外出。
► He is seldom late for school. 他上學(xué)很少遲到。
注 意：
1）seldom 具有否定意義，用于句首表示強調(diào)時，主謂要部分倒裝。
► Seldom do I go shopping by tax, unless it’s raining.
除非下雨，我很少打車去購物。
2）seldom 用于反意疑問句時，附加問句不用否定詞not。
► They seldom come late, do they? 他們很少遲到，對嗎?
He was absent from classes and failed his
examinations. 他翹課，并且考試不及格。
(l) be absent from …意為“缺席……此處用作形容詞，意為“缺席；不在”。
► A good student would not be absent from school.
好學(xué)生是不會逃課的。
拓展：absent 用作動詞，意為“缺席；不參加”。
► He absent himself from the meeting yesterday.
他昨天沒有出席會議。
Finally, Li Wen’s parents made the decision to send him to a boarding school.
Finally 用作副詞，意為“最后；終于”，其同義詞組是 in the end, at last。在句中作狀語通常位于句首、句末或?qū)嵙x動詞之前，be動詞、助動詞或情態(tài)動詞之后。
► Finally they got to the village. 最后他們到達(dá)了那個村莊。
► He worked out the math problem finally.
他終于解出了那道數(shù)學(xué)題。
辨析： finally, at last 與 in the end
finally: “最后”,只指一系列事物或論點的順序,一般不帶感情色彩。
at last:有時可與finally互換，但往往用于一番拖延和曲折之后，因而帶有較濃厚的感情色彩，如“不耐煩、不放心、不如愿”等。
in the end:“終于”可用于預(yù)測未來，finally和at last不能。
► He tried many times, and finally succeeded.
他試驗了很多次，最后成功。
► At last I have obtained my wish. 我的愿望終于實現(xiàn)了。
(2) send…to…意為“把……送到……”
►His parents sent him to Shanghai to study.
他的父母送他到上海學(xué)習(xí)。
拓展：send 的固定搭配
1）send up “發(fā)射；發(fā)出”
►Man-made satellites have been sent up into space by many countries.
2）send away “解雇；開除”
► The boss sent away Tom.
► His mother was ill and he sent for the doctor.
She advised them to talk with their son in person.
班主任建議李文的父母親自和她們的兒子談?wù)劇?/p>
(1)advise 用作及物動詞，其賓語可以是名詞、代詞、動詞-ing 形式，也可以是that從句。advise也可以接雙賓語，其直接賓語可由名詞、帶疑問詞的動詞不定式或that/wh-從句充當(dāng)。advise還可由動詞不定式充當(dāng)賓補的復(fù)合賓語。
advise的常用句型：
1）advise doing sth. 意為“建議做某事”
► He advised leaving early.
2) advise sb. to do sth. 意為“建議某人做某事”
► The doctor advised me to take a complete rest.
醫(yī)生建議我徹底休息一下。
注意：advise后不能直接跟不定式作賓語。
3) advise sb. against doing sth. 意為“勸告某人不要做某事”，有時可與 advise sb. not to do sth.互換。
