too often students come with the bare minimum and then get into finacial problems when they get sick这是第一个/students may want to consider finding a part-time job to supplement their income patting a reasonable share of it in saving for a "rainy day"这是第二个
你打错了,我查了原文 student may want to consider finding a part-time job to supplement their income, putting a reasonable share of it in savings for a "rainy day. 是putting,而不是patting. 整句意思是: 学生可以找兼职做,帮补收入,增加储蓄以备不时之需 (语句可能不流畅,但意思大致如上)
