“Everything happens for the best,” my grandmother said whenever things weren’t going my way. “Don’t worry, one day your luck (1) _____________(change). ”
Grandmother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college. I had decided to be sports announcer (广播员) in a radio station, so I (2) _____________ ( go) to Shanghai and knocked on the door of every station. But I got refused every time.
In one station, a kind lady said my problem was short of experience. “ Get some work with a small station and (3)_______________(work) your way up ,” she said.
I couldn’t get a job there, either. Then my dad told me a businessman had opened a company and needed someone (4 )_____________ ( manage) the sports center. But again, I didn’t get the job.
I felt really down. “Your luck will change,” Granny reminded me. I tried another radio station in Beijing. But the owner, a nice man, told me he already had someone.
As I left his office, I asked, “ How can someone be a sports announcer if he ( 5 )_____________(not, get) a job in a radio station?”
I ()______________( wait) for the elevator when I heard the man call, “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” I (7)______________(put) in front of a microphone and asked to imagine I was commenting (评论) on a football game. “Now you (8)____________ (watch) the football game between Lu Neng and Shen Hua. . . ”
On my way home, Granny’s words came back to me, “One day your luck will change, boy. And when it (9 ) ____________( happen) , it’ll feel twice as good because of all the disappointment (失望) you (10) ____________ ( have) . ” At that moment I knew just what she meant.

Hi, everyone, I’m Jane. Two years ago, my husband bought me a bicycle. If you live in a town, it is often faster than a car and you don’t have to worry about parking. You can leave it anywhere. As it has a seat at the back and a basket in the front, I can take my small daughter to school, to the library, to the shops, and to anywhere.
I use it most in summer when the weather is warm and dry. It can be very unpleasant in winter when it is cold and the snow is heavy. Of course, you must be careful on a bicycle. Accidents are not the only problem. One day I went shopping with my friends. But when I came back, I found that my bike’s front wheel was missing. It was a long walk to the bicycle shop. Now I have three strong locks(锁).
My husband uses my bicycle sometimes for short journeys. He says it is better than waiting for a bus. He still uses his car for longer journeys, but I think that all the sitting down is making him fat and lazy. I like riding on my bicycle because I can exercise a lot and get much fresh air, and this makes me feel much younger.
