Explanation:
The whole dialogue in the passage is told using reported speech. In other words,<u> it is the narrator who tells us what the characters said, rather than the characters themselves</u>. When using the reported speech, the verb tense often changes into the past. Take a look at the example below:
- Direct speech: Lana said, "I <u>want</u> to be a lawyer."
- Reported speech: Lana said that she wanted to be lawyer.
For that reason, when completing the passage above, it is better if we choose options that use the past instead of the present. We must also pay attention to coherence. If an option mixes both present and past, it is most likely incorrect. Having that in mind, the best way to complete the passage is by using the following:
when he grew up, he wanted
that he would have to study hard
father would have to work hard
