"Everything happens for the best, "my mother said whenever I faced disappointment, "If you 36 on, something good will happen some day."
Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college. I had 37 myself for a sports announcer. So I went to Chicago to knock on the door of every station and was 38 every time. In one station, a kind lady told me that 39 stations wouldn't employ a person without 40 since I had just graduated. "Go out in the town and find a small station that might give you a chance, "she said.
I returned to Dixon, where I had finished my high school education and had 41 in the school football team. My father said that our town had built a store and wanted a man to manage its sports department. The job sounded just 42 for me but I wasn't hired.
My disappointment had 43 as if by design. "Everything happens for the best," Mum 44 me. Dad lent me his car to look for a job. I tried WOC Radio Davenport. The program director told me they had already hired an announcer. 45 I left his office, I asked aloud," 46 can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can't get a job in a radio station?" Suddenly, I heard the director 47 . "Do you know anything about football? " Then he asked me to 48 an imaginary game. It was easy, and I did it without difficulty. The director was 49 and told me I would be broadcasting a game on the 50 Saturday.

解析试题分析：本文通过“我”求职经过体现妈妈的话：Everything happens for the best. 大学刚毕业的“我”满以为会在 Chicago 能找到一份体育播音员的工作，但处处碰壁，最后经过一位好心人的指点回到上中学时的小镇，不过工作还是不好找。正当“我”因处处碰壁而大声发泄，“就连一份电台工作都找不到又怎么会当体育播音员呢？”正因为这次发泄结果被一电台主任听到并因“我”擅长体育而雇佣“我”做解说员。
【小题1】从前面的每当“我”面对失望时总是想到妈妈说的那句话及后面所举的“我”大学毕业后找工作的例子来看，只要继续(坚持)，总有一天会有好结果。carry on 意为“继续”。选D
【小题2】从下文来看，“我”想找一份体育播音员的工作。design 在此意为“意欲，打算”。design sb for… 指的是“打算当 / 做……”。选B
【小题3】从后文来看，在这个城市里是找不到工作的(有那位妇女的话佐证)，即“我”到每家电台求职，结果是每次都被“拒绝”了。选C。
【小题4】从后面的 since I just graduated 可知，“我”大学刚毕业，没有经验，而那位 lady 说的话正是“在 Chicago 大电视台是不会雇佣没有经验的人的”。选A。
【小题5】那位 lady 的话的意思是“一些小城镇的电台也许会雇佣像你这样的没有经验的人”，选A。
【小题6】 “我”接受了她的建议，回到了读中学的 Dixon 镇。从后面的 in the school football team 及“我”的爱好可推测，“我”上中学时曾在校足球队踢球，故用 play。选A。
【小题7】前面说“我”想找体育播音员的工作，“我”又有高中体育队的经验，因此听起来这个工作很适合“我”。right 在此意为“合适”，be right for sb 为“适合某人”。选C。
【小题8】“我”找工作接连受挫，“我”的失望似乎是故意地展现出来。用show，选. 选A。
【小题9】从一开始就提到妈妈的这句话，现在当妈妈看到“我”脸上的表情及了解到找工作接连受挫时，妈妈又拿出了这句话来提醒“我”，让“我”坚持下去。选D。
【小题10】从前面 I tried WOC Radio Davenport 及下文的 I left his office, 可知是在我离开办公室后。选B。
【小题11】从那位主任办公室走出来后，“我”因找不到工作非常苦闷，于是大声喊叫以发泄。从结构来看，此空应用 how，句意为：如果在电台的工作都找不到，那他怎会做体育播音员呢？选B。
【小题12】从前面来看，好像这次求职又失败，于是“我”大声喊叫发泄一通，用calling，选A。
【小题13】该题可从后面的 …told me I would be broadcasting a game on the… 得到启发。选C。
【小题14】从语境来看，主任直接让“我”播在周六的比赛，可见他对“我”很满意。选D。
【小题15】从 …told me I would be broadcasting a game… 等来看，这场比赛将在下个周六举行，故用 the coming Saturday. 选B。
