For most people the holiday season is a time of joy. It's always time to make memories as a family. For me, it is a time of loneliness-for I have been away from my family in Iran while studying in the United State.

A tie-clasp(领带夹)I still wear reminds me repeatedly of the unforgettable Christmas three years ago. All my classmates had excitedly looked forward to the holiday. I had no money for the vacation. My check(支票) from home had not arrived.

One day I walked to pick up my mail at the International Students Office. The important check still had not arrived. Maria, a Mexican-American student working in the department, must have seen my disappointment. She invited me to spend Christmas Eve with her family. I accepted gladly.

Maria's family was not rich. They lived in a small house. Maria introduced me to her parents, her aunt and her sister, who welcomed me warmly. Maria's father could only speak Spanish, so he talked to me while Maria's sister acted as an interpreter. The kind look in his eyes and his relaxed behavior made me feel right at home.

The dinner was well prepared. Maria's aunt ate while standing at a corner of the small, ole table. I felt a little uncomfortable, knowing that I was taking her place, but her gesture(手势)expressed the. hospitality(好客).

After dinner, Maria handed a small box to me. Inside I found the tie-clasp I still use to this day.

It was an unforgettable evening of good friendship during a hard and lonely period of my life.

I'm often asked the question “How did you become a reporter?” You see, everybody expected me to follow in my father's footsteps and become a doctor. Well, during my last year of school I visited a career counselor(置业顾问)named Lisa and I drove her crazy with my choices.

My first choice was a chocolate tester. Although Lisa didn't know the job well, she got me some information about it. I discovered that chocolate testers make a lot of money, so I was sure I had found my dream job. However, when I found out that chocolate testers don't just sit around eating chocolate all day, I lost my interest.

Next, I thought of becoming a football referee(裁判). I had loved football from a young age, but being a professional footballer was out of the question, as I couldn't play very well. However, it seems that referees must be able to run two and a half miles in less than twelve minutes and they are required to take exams throughout their training. So, my dream of becoming a referee died.

Finally, I had this idea of becoming a dog stylist(造型师). That was after I realized how much money our dog stylist, Shirley, was being paid. However, once, while she was styling Philipo. I noticed that he tried to bite(咬)her. “It happens all the time," she told me. As you can imagine, that really put me off.

To cut a long story short, all this research made me realize I had a talent for investigation(调查)so by the end of school year I had decided to become a reporter.

1.What can we know about the writer's first dream job?

A.It is a job that pays well. B.It is what his father is doing.

C.It is what Lisa expected him to do. D.It is a job that requires one to sit all day.

2.Why was the writer interested in becoming a football referee instead of a player?

A.He wanted to run less. B.He wasn't young enough.

C.He wanted to take fewer exams. D.He couldn't play football very well.

3.Philipo is probably ________.

A.Shirley's dog B.the writer's dog C.Shirley's stylist D.the writer's stylist

4.Which is closest in meaning to underlined part in Paragraph 4?

A.拖延时间 B.推迟 C.把…放在… D.对…失去兴趣(反感)

5.What's the passage mainly about?

A.How to choose the right job. B.Different jobs the writer has tried.
