题目内容
4．When I began planning to move to Auckland to study，my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India，where we lived．She worried particularly about the lack of jobs，the cultural differences and the chance that I would face racism（种族偏见）．Despite these worries，I came to New Zealand in July 2009．I have found the place and people very nice and supportive．Soon after I arrived，I realized the importance of getting a job for my living expenses．
Determined to do this on my own，I spent a whole day going door to door asking for a job．However，I received little response．This became my routine every day after college for a few weeks．
One afternoon，I walked into a building to ask whether there were any job opportunities．People there were very surprised，and advised me not to continue my job search in that manner．As I was about to leave，a clerk in the building，who had been listening to what the others had said，approached me and asked me to wait outside for a while．Fifteen minutes later，he returned．He asked me about my plans and encouraged me to stay confident．Then he offered to take me to Royal Oak to search for a job．
I was a little surprised but had a good feeling about him．He gave me some suggestions on dressing and speaking．I handed out my resumes and went home feeling very satisfied．The following day，I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job．
It seems that the world always gives back to you when you need it．And this time，it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing．
