Before long you'll be doing it without thinking. Even though you may not realize it, your parents have bought you many clothes. But they're not buying themselves new things every week, are they? The simple truth is that there are more 87 things to spend money on, like the electricity bill and food. You may hate missing a party to visit some boring old relatives. They may go on and on about what a sweet baby you were. You have no choice but to listen. Even if you 88 , your parents won't change their minds. Parents like to show off their family.

所以，本题答案为C。86. （句子层次的设空）青少年应该培养良好的生活习惯。例如，在家脱 衣后应该及时挂 上。B项leave them alone 表示“让它们独自留下”；C项put them up 表示“把他们穿上”；D项throw them away表示“把它们扔掉”，以上答案显然均不符合文章意思，而A项hang them up 正是“把衣服挂上” 的意思，所以答案为A。87. （后制性设空）家长会给孩子买许多衣服，但他们不会经常为自己购 物，那是因为他们要考虑维持家庭生计，他们往往把钱花在更重要的事 情上，所以答案为C。

88. （前制性设空）你有时会去拜访那些无聊又年长的亲戚，他们会一遍 又一遍地唠叨你 小时候的乖巧可爱，而你只能洗耳恭听（They may go on and on about what a sweet baby you were. You have no choice but to listen.） 显然，你会对此而抱怨，但家长们仍不以为然 （… your parents won't change their minds.），所以本题答案为B。 解析：89. （前制性设空） 如果能帮助招待好你的亲戚，你的 家长会感到十分满意，也会允许你出席以后的更多的这 种聚会。

选项A、B、C与聚会无关，应予淘汰。所以，本题答案为D。90. （语篇性设空）每日吃饭时，应该想到家长的艰辛。当你说你并不饿 时，家长不但会有内心的不快，另外会担心你吃得过少而影响身体 （Imagine how your parents feel when you say you're not really hungry. …， your parents are probably worried that you aren't eating enough.）。根据文 章内容，空格处应填入“除此之外”的意思，所以本题答 案为A。

91. （前制性设空）文章结尾告诫我们要少吃零食，要留出吃饭的空间 （Eat fewer snacks and leave room for your meals.）。饭后也要提出帮助 父母做些事情，尽管有时不会得到他们的许可。从四个选项中，我们可 以看到D项符合饭后可做的事，A项do the cooking 表示“煮饭”，B项lay the table表示“摆餐具、饭桌”均发生在饭前，C项buy some snacks 与上文“少吃零食”的论述矛盾，所以答案为D。
