Because of my careful savings, I did not have to work during the school year. Then, summer came and it was time to work harder than ever. I continued working as a waitress at night, instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons. I even decided to take a class at a community (社区)college. This class at the community college saved me $650. It was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the university.‎ During my second and third years of undergraduate schooling, I decided to work about five hours per week in the campus (校园) admissions office answering phones. This provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings out. The overall situation looked hopeful as I approached my senior year as long as I could make as much money as I had the previous summer. I wanted to go to Israel to study for 3 weeks, but I hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1 600 more to get the credits in Israel. About two weeks later my Mom called to tell me that I had$1 ‎600 in the bank that I had forgotten about! One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost, but the loss of time to make money; however, I made as much that summer in the ten weeks when I was at home as I had made during the fourteen weeks when I was at home the summer before. The way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.‎ This experience has shaped me in many important ways. The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic (伦理). Working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar. It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.‎ 文章大意：在上大学期间，作者充分利用课余时间从事一些兼职工作，获得了不错的收入，更重要的是，这种工作经历使作者认识到了工作伦理的重要性，并且也学会了如何应对困难局面。‎ ‎1．Where did the writer probably work parttime before attending the university?‎ A．In a restaurant.　　　　　 B．In the tennis camps.‎ C．In a company. D．In the admissions office.‎ 答案：A　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“... tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours...”和第二段中的“... per week in the campus admissions office answering phones.”可知，B、C、D三项均是作者上大学之后所从事的兼职工作，因此，A项可能是作者上大学之前从事的工作。故答案选A。‎ ‎2．The writer took a class at a community college mainly because ________.‎ A．she wanted to save money B．life there was relatively easy C．summer time was tiring D．it was required by the university 答案：A　细节理解题。根据第一段倒数第二句“This class at the community college saved me $650.”可知，作者选这门课程的主要原因是她要省钱，A选项符合语境。故答案选A。‎ ‎3．The writer's major concern about the trip to Israel was that ________.‎ A．her mother would not give her approval B．she would fail to get credits in ‎Israel C．a wellpaid summer job would be lost D．$1 600 couldn't be drawn out in time 答案：C　细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第二句“One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost, but the loss of time to make money...”可知，作者关心的不是旅行的费用，而是失去了挣钱的时间。C选项符合语境，故答案选C。‎ ‎4．The passage is mainly about how the writer ________.‎ A．made money on the college campus B．managed to make full use of her vacation C．was forced to support herself by her mother D．was shaped by working parttime through college 答案：D　主旨大意题。最后一段提到“This experience has shaped me in many importance ways. The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic...”，这些经历在许多重要方面塑造了作者。故答案选D。‎ Ⅲ.完形填空 ‎(2013·贵州省六校联盟第一次联考)‎ One year ago, I traveled 15,000 kilometers from Australia to the US. I am from a beachside town in the __1__ of Sydney, and thought there would be almost no __2__ differences between my home country and my __3__.

Not all Americans are ignorant of geography, for example.Despite this, certain stereotypes about places did seem to __17__ true for me. There is an immense (强烈的) sense of speed in New York. Everyone __18__ to and fro, and very seldom takes time to __19__ the moment. This is very different from the Australian lifestyle. Australians are laid back. Even in a major city like Sydney, we “Aussies” take time to “stop and smell the roses”—very different from our American counterparts. ‎ Navigating (驾驭) the culture divide between Australia and the US was challenging at times. But I took up that __20__ and learned a lot from it.
