【答案】
【1】has been/is
【2】to earn
【3】if /when
【解析】
这是一篇应用文。文章讲述了,作者希望父母多陪伴和鼓励自己。
【1】
考查时态。固定句型“It +现在完成时(has done)/一般现在时(is)+ since +从句(一般过去时)”,应用has been/is。故填has been/is。
【2】
考查动词不定式。本句意为“我知道你正忙着努力谋生,但我所希望的是拥有你更多的陪伴。”,固定搭配try to do sth.,意为“努力干某事”,应用动词不定式to earn。故填to earn。
【3】
考查连词。本句意为“所以,如果我考试不及格/当我考试不及格时,我希望你能鼓励我做得更好”,由语境可知,此处既可表条件,由if引导条件状语从句,又可表时间,由when引导时间状语从句。故填if /when。
