How far would you go for your kids education? That 's a question many parents are asking in the wake of the college cheating scandal(丑闻)involving 38 wealthy parents around the country, including actresses Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman. Here’ s how far I went. In the fall of 2017 my husband and I lost our jobs. We had to tell our daughter, Casey, that we couldn’t afford to send her back to school for her junior year at Fordham University. We decided the best choice for our family would be for Casey to sit out a year. We promised that we would get her back the following year. Casey decided to spend the year volunteering in South Africa On Sept 30, 2017, we put our oldest child on a plane halfway around the world. Casey worked as a tutor teaching kids math, English and music in Johannesburg. We did get Casey back in school in time. When she returned to the campus, she studied harder. She isn't what she used to be. Each day is marked by gratitude because she knows what it is like not to be able to get an education.
I wonder why the college cheating scandal happened and I think it boils down to this: Parents want to create a comfort zone for their kids. Of course, we want the best for our kids but sometimes we forget that real growth doesn't happen in times of comfort; those valuable lessons come when we are forced to think in ways we otherwise wouldn’t have
While I did less for my child than these wealthy parents did in terms of means, in other ways I did more. I taught her that disappointment is a part of life and we should face it bravely rather than avoid it. My husband and I showed Casey that her strength is in her struggle. That's how far I went for my kid s education. And I dare say she is wiser and better off for it.
1.What do the parents involved in the college cheating scandal have in common?
A. They are well –known B. They are aggressive
C. They are very rich D. They are conservative.
2.The writer made the decision to pull Casey out of school__________
A. for lack of money B. because of her illness
C. as a result of cheatings D. due to her bad behaviour
3.What does the writer think of her daughter’s volunteering in South Africa for a year?
A. It’ s meaningless. B. It is well worth it.
C. It is a waste of time D. It is a wrong decision.
4.The writer advises parents to____.
A. create a comfort zone for their kids B. do whatever they can for their kids
