the more I tried, the more withdrawn he became. His report card arrived, saying that he had been absent 95
times from classes and failed in the exams. I sent him to the school advisor, and I even begged him. Nothing
worked.
One day, I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. "I want to
talk to you about Karl's absences." Before he could say another word, all my disappointment and sadness over
Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. "I love my son but I just don't know what to do. I've tried
everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It's out of my hands." For a moment there
was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, "Thank you for your time", and hung
up.
Karl's next report card showed marked (显著的) improvement in his grades. Last week I attended a parent-
teacher meeting with Karl. His teachers praised him a lot and were amazed at the way he had turned himself
around. On our way home, he said, "Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?" I nodded. "That
was me. I thought I'd play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you.
That's when I knew I had to make you proud."

“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I faced disappointment. “If you carry on，one day something 36 will happen．And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have 37 if not for that previous disappointment．”
M0ther was right, 38 I discovered after graduating from college in 1932．I had decided to try for a job in radio，then work my way up to sports 39 ．I hitchhiked(搭车)to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station—and got 40 every time．
In one studio．a kind lady told me that big stations couldn’t risk hiring an 41 person.“Go to the suburbs and find a small station that’ll give you a 42 ，”she said．
I thumbed home to Dixon，lllinois．While there was no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon，my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to 43 its sports department．Since Dixon was where I had played high school football，I 44 ．The job sounded just right for me．But I wasn’t 45 .
My 46 must have shown．“Everything happens for the best，”Mom 47 me．Dad offered me the car to job 48 ．I 49 WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director．Peter MacArthur，told me they had already hired an announcer．
As I left his office，my annoyance 50 over．I asked aloud,“How can a fellow 51 .to be a spots announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?”
I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling，“What was that you said about 52 ？ Do you know anything about football?”Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to．53 an imaginary game．
On my way home，as I have many times since，J thought of my mother’s 54．I often wonder what 55 my life might have taken if I’d gotten the job at Montgomery Ward.

He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was completely unexpected.
“Where did you get that watch?”
I could have kicked myself, two days before, when playing water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX OYSTER, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for only six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any reason, during the journey.
I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate（没收）the replacement.
“It is not a question of confiscation, ” he said, “there is a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may I please examine that Rolex?”
It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband(走私品); then he began to search my luggage.
