6、, I made the single big decision: to throw myself into the water.

21、自己的東西，離城而去。她即將面臨流浪的生活，這在以前是很難想象的，而她在不久前還有著體面的工作，不錯(cuò)的收入，并在商學(xué)院攻讀研究生。失業(yè)保險(xiǎn)救濟(jì)金可以使失業(yè)人員不至于形貌落魄，無(wú)立錐之地。 可一旦收不到失業(yè)救濟(jì)支票，哪怕是像蘇這樣曾經(jīng)過著體面富足生活的人，也會(huì)日益跌入經(jīng)濟(jì)窘迫的深淵。蘇一直在不斷地努力以擺脫困境，但她還不得不面臨失去自己所擁有的一切的殘酷事實(shí)。盡管困難重重，她仍繼續(xù)苦苦掙扎著，尋求一縷希望。Many ordinary working-class people, like Sue Johnson, experienced long months of struggles when
