30、seriously ill. “I would have liked to go back to it, but the shifts（工作班次） are all wrong for me, as I have to be home to get the chiledren up and off to school.”So she works as a cleaner instead, from 9 p.m. till 6 a.m. five nights a week for just 90, before tax and insurance. “Its better than it was
31、 last year, but I still think that people who work unsocial hours should get a bit extra.”The hours shes chosen to work mean that she sees plenty of the children, but very little of her husband. However, she doesnt think that puts any pressure on their relationsip. Her work isnt physically very hard
32、, but its not exactly pleasant, either. “I do get angry with people who leave their offices like a place for raising pigs.

We all have a good laugh, so the time never drags.”Another challenge Margaret has to face is the reaction of oth
34、er people when she tells them what she does for a living. “They think youre a cleaner because you dont know how to read and write,” said Margaret. “I used to think what my parents would say if they knew what Id been doing, but I dont think that way any more. I dont dislike the work though I cant say Im mad about it.”61. Margaret quit her job as a nurse because_.A. she wanted to earn more money to support her familyB. she had suffered a lot of mental pressure
