“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said,whenever things weren’t going my way.“Don’t worry;one day your luck will change.”

Mother was right,as I discovered after I had finished my college education.I had decided to try for a job in radio.One day,I wanted to host(主持) a sports program.I went to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station.But I got turned down every time.

In one station,a kind lady said my problem was that I hadn’t got enough experience.“Get some work in a small station and work your way up,” she said.

I went back home.I couldn’t get a job there,either.I felt really down.“Your luck will change,” Mom said to me.I tried another radio station in Iowa.But the owner told me he had already had someone.As I left his office,I asked,“How can someone be a sports announcer(播音员) if he can’t get a job in a radio station?”

I was waiting for the lift when I heard the man call,“What did you mean?Do you know anything about football?” He put me in front of a microphone and asked me to try to imagine that I was giving my opinion on a football game.I succeeded.

On my way home,Mom’s words came back to me,“One day your luck will change,Son.And when it happens,you’ll feel doubly(加倍地) good because of all the hard work you’ve done.” At that moment I knew just what she meant.

(2017湖北随州改编)

Are you a TV lover?Can you imagine living without TV?Well,you could give it a try.

A group of Americans from TV-Turnoff Network(网络) have an idea.From April 19 to 25,they are asking children all over the world to turn off their TVs for one week.They hope children will find more interesting things to do.Maybe they can read some books,or learn to swim,or paint a picture.Since 1995,about 24 million people in America have taken part in TV-Turnoff Week.

TV-Turnoff Network says watching TV too much can bring children big problems with school,health and family.They want kids to watch a lot less TV.What do you think?
