                         He used to cause （引起）a lot of trouble.

       Martin Murray is a fifteen-year-old boy. He used to be a “problem child”, but a recent conversation with his mother changed his life. He didn’t use to give his mother many problems. However, after his father’s death a few years ago,    1   . His mother couldn’t afford to pay（不能負(fù)擔(dān)） her child’s education. To do this, she had to work, and so was often not at home.

       His mother looked after him as well as she could. Unfortunately, Martin still caused problems for himself and his family. He was not interested in studying and he often got into trouble with（與…沖突） the police. Luckily, his mother was very patient（有耐心的）

   2   . In the end, she made a difficult decision: to send him to a boys’ boarding school. Martin hated it and used to cause a lot of trouble. One day he told his teacher he wanted to leave the school.   3    .

      But the head teacher（班主任）said it was necessary for Martin to talk with his mother. Martin called his mother, but to his surprise, this phone call changed his life. “It was exactly what I needed,” he said. “My mother helped me to understand how much she had given me. She also told me that even though my father was no longer（不再） with us, he was watching me and would always take pride in（對(duì)…感到自豪） everything good I do.   4   . I realize that since my father died, I have been afraid of being alone, and have tried to make my mother pay more attention to（多注意）me.”

       Now Martin has really changed. He has been working hard and is now one of the best students in his class.   5   ? His mother’s love helped him to feel good about himself, and as Martin himself says, “It’s very important for parents to be there for their children.”

A: How was he able to change?      B: and she didn’t give up(放棄) trying to help him. C: That’s when I decided to change. D: Martin’s life became much more difficult. E: His teacher agreed him to leave and thought Martin was wasting his time(浪費(fèi)時(shí)間).
