22. I’m a student in my third year at Robert Gordon University, but I also work 35 hours a week at Sainsbury's to make ends meet.
I constantly have to force myself to stay awake, and to be alert, whatever it takes. The work I do at Sainsbury's is very physical like stacking(fi3 ik)shelves. I am lucky because the amount I lift at work is nothing compared with the weight I lift in the gym. I know I have the strength to bear it.
I am originally from Nigeria. I came here when I was seven. Money was always tight. My parents gave me everything I needed, but there was no money for luxuries. I worked hard at school though and, with the help of professors, I got the best A-level grades in my class.
Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled "British residential status the Home Office waited until I was in sixth form to approve my application. That meant I was not eligible for a student loan. The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents paid for my tuition fees.
I don’t have much time to socialize because of my job. Ideally, Id like to have more time to study so I can excel at my course. Yes, I have a lot on my plate, but working hard isnt new for me. Growing up, my parents cultivated in me the importance of working hard for what I want in life.
My dream is to get a job in the NHS. But now, Im just focused on trying to get the best grades I can. Whenever I find life hard, I tell myself this is about my future.
4. Why does the author work long hours and sometimes overtime every week?
A. To pay for his own living expenses B. To pay for his tuition fees
C. To prove his ability to earn money D. To help his parents pay off the debts

A. Responsible B. Anxious
C. Qualified D. Accessible
6. Which of the following can NOT be used to describe the author?
A. Persistent B. Diligent
C. Sociable D. Ambitious
7. Which proverb can best summarize the passage?
A. Actions speak louder than words B. God help those who help the themselves
C. A penny saved is a penny earned D. Where there is life, there is hope
参考答案：
4. A    5. C    6. C    7. B
文章是一篇说明文。作者是Robert Gordon大学三年级的一名学生，他每周要在Sainsbury工作35个小时来维持生计。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents paid for my tuition fees.”可知作者作者每周要工作很长时间，有时还要加班是为了自己支付生活费用，故选A。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文“Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled "British residential status the Home Office waited until I was in sixth form to approve my application.”可知不幸的是，尽管作者已经申请了英国“定居”身份，但英国内政部一直要等到他上六年级时才能批准申请。故可推测作者不符合学生贷款的“资格”，故划线部分单词意思为“合格的；有资格的”。A. Responsible负责的；B. Anxious焦急的；C. Qualified有资格的；D. Accessible易接近的。故选C。
【6题详解】
判断推理题。根据倒数第二段第一句“I don’t have much time to socialize because of my job.”可知作者因为工作没有太多时间去社交，故可推测作者并不是一个善于社交的人，故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，出生于一个家庭经济情况紧张的作者为了上大学，每周坚持工作35个小时，并且一直保持着全班最好的成绩，作者这种不懈努力的行为体现了“天助自助者”，故选B。
