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 Ilearned 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 adollar. It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.

　　1. Where did the writer probably work part-time before attending the university?
