I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career（職業(yè)）.

I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn’t the type to have a career.

I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn’t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she’d give me time off the next. But unluckily, it didn’t often work out. I was getting quite tired and feeling very bored, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.

One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification（資格證書）if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school. She persuaded(說服) me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience helped me a lot and I got on a part-time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.

Now I’ve got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren’t top of the class at school.

1.When staying with the two girls’ family，the writer ________.

A.was paid for extra work B.often worked long hours

C.got much help from her boss D.took a day off every other week

2.Why did the writer leave her first job?

A.She found a full-time job. B.She was very bored with children.

C.She decided to attend a part-time course. D.She needed a rest after working extra hours.

3.What has the writer learned from her own experiences?

A.Less successful students can still have a career.

B.Qualifications are necessary for a career.

C.Hard work makes an excellent student.

D.One must choose the job she like.
