　　Finally，I entered the university.Because of my careful

　　savings，I did not have to work during the school years.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

　　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 (道德准则)．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.1．Where did the writer probably work part­time before attending the university?

　　“Reconstituted” families are more and more common in the UK.

　　Steve and Debbie got married in 2001 and had two children，Lily and Alex.Unfortunately，Steve and Debbie’s marriage didn’t work out and they got divorced in 2006.The children live with Debbie.In 2008，Debbie remarried.Her new husband，Martin，has three children from his previous marriage and they visit Debbie，Martin，Lily and Alex at weekends.In addition，Debbie is pregnant with her third child.She’s expecting a boy who will be a half­brother to Lily and Alex and also to Martin’s three other children.

　　Confused？Debbie’s family arrangements might have seemed strange 30 years ago but nowadays this kind of “reconstituted” family is increasingly common in the UK.Almost half of all marriages in Britain end in divorce and over 40% of marriages are remarriages.More than 10% of all British children live with one birth parent and a stepparent—a parent who isn’t their biological mother or father.The traditional “nuclear” family of two parents and their children is not so traditional any more.

　　What does all of this mean for parents in these “reconstituted” families？“There

　　are

　　difficulties

　　and

　　challenges，”

　　says Debbie.“Different families have different routines and it can be difficult for children to move between their two families.Birthdays and holidays can be tricky.Where do the children go？Who should they spend their time with？Also，when my children are naughty it can be difficult for Martin to tell_them_off.Things that might be simple in a traditional family can be a bit more complicated.”

　　And how about the children？Martin’s eldest child，Ella，is 12.“I like my two families，” she says.“I live with my

　　mum but visit my dad quite often and I’m happy that my mum and dad get along OK.They’re not married any more but it’s good that they can still be friends.”

　　Of course divorce and separation are never easy but many families in the UK are finding ways to make family life work in new ways.

　　5．Why did Steve and Debbie get separated?

　　A．They couldn’t support the children.

　　B．They couldn’t get along well.

　　C．They were both out of work.

　　D．They had serious economic problems.

　　6．We can learn from the text that a “nuclear” family ________.

　　A．has two birth parents and their children

　　B．has two birth parents and only one child

　　C．is traditional but complicated

　　D．doesn’t have any children

　　7．What do the underlined words “tell them off” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?

　　A．make them annoyed

　　B．send them to school

　　C．let out their secrets

　　D．talk angrily to them

　　8．What’s the text mainly about?

　　A．The difference between “marriage” and

　　“remarriage”．

　　B．More and more people get divorced in the UK.

　　C．“Reconstituted”

　　families are becoming more and more in the UK.

　　D．The marriage situation is becoming severe.

　　答案：　B

　　8．解析：　作者和姐姐以前从来没有花那么多时间(time)交流。

　　9．解析：　到了圣诞节前夕她们不得不接受(accept)这个事实。ignore表示“忽视”，consider表示“考虑”，study表示“研究”都不符合语境。
