“Everything happens for the best," my grandmother said whenever things weren't going my way. "Don't worry, one day your luck 【小题1】_______(change). "
Grandmother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college. I had decided to be sports announcer (广播员) in a radio station, so I 【小题2】_______ ( go) to Shanghai and knocked on the door of every station. But I got refused every time.
In one station, a kind lady said my problem was short of experience. " Get some work with a small station and 【小题3】_______(work) your way up ," she said.
I couldn't get a job there, either. Then my dad told me a businessman had opened a company and needed someone 【小题4】_______ ( manage) the sports center. But again, I didn't get the job.
I felt really down. "Your luck will change," Granny reminded me. I tried another radio station in Beijing. But the owner, a nice man, told me he already had someone.
As I left his office, I asked, " How can someone be a sports announcer if he 【小题5】_______(not, get) a job in a radio station?"
I 【小题6】_______( wait) for the elevator when I heard the man call, " What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?" I 【小题7】_______(put) in front of a microphone and asked to imagine I was commenting (评论) on a football game. "Now you 【小题8】_______ (watch) the football game between Lu Neng and Shen Hua. . . "
On my way home, Granny's words came back to me, " One day your luck will change, boy. And when it 【小题9】 _______( happen) , it'll feel twice as good because of all the disappointment (失望) you 【小题10】_______ ( have) . " At that moment I knew just what she meant.

Your schooldays should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. How can you gain the most from them, and make sure you do not waste this wonderful opportunity to learn?
〔1〕Be positive about school! Don't say things are difficult or boring. Be interested in school-life and your school subjects. Join in lots of activities. Be quick to put your hand up. Go round the school with a big smile.
〔2〕Expect to work. School is not a holiday camp. If you are not working, you are not learning, and you are wasting your time at school. Teachers cannot make everything enjoyable.
〔3〕Keep fit. If you do not eat a good breakfast, you will be thinking about food in class. If you go to bed late and do not have enough sleep, you will be sleepy in class. Play some sports to keep your body strong.
〔4〕__________________________. Do not say you will do things tomorrow. If you get behind the class, it is very difficult to get back in front. You cannot finish a race if you rest all the time.
〔5〕Don't be too disappointed if things sometimes go badly. Everyone fails some tests, loses some matches and has bad days. Friends are not always perfect, and they sometimes say and do unpleasant things. Don't let small problems seem very big and important.
〔6〕Talk about problems—sometimes they are only the result of misunderstanding. Don't be too embarrassed to turn to others. You are young. No one thinks you can do everything!
〔7〕Plan your time. Don't waste life lying in bed on Saturday morning. Go and play a sport, learn the piano, work on a project, read a book, practise English, or help someone with problems. There are always a lot of things to do.
Follow my advice, and have a happy school-life!

When other nine-year-old kids were playing games, she was working at a petrol station. When other teens were studying or going out, she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship(奖学金)and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, “Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story”, shown in late April.
 Liz Murray, a 22-year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted(吸毒)parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that loss became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it.
 Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets.“What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other way of being. I had only experienced a small part of the society,”she wrote in her book Breaking Night.
 She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe living environment, to encourage herself that “next to nothing could hold me down”. She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. “I love my parents so much. They are drug addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time.”
  Liz wants moviegoers to come away with the idea that changing your life is “as simple as making a decision”.
【小题1】In which order did the following things happen to Liz?
  a. Her mother died of AIDS.    b. She worked at a petrol station.
  c. She got admitted into Harvard. d. The movie about her life was put on.
  e. She had trouble finding a place to sleep.
A.b, a, e, c, d  B.a, b, c, e, dC.e, d, b, a, cD.b, e, a, d, c
【小题2】The main idea of the passage is ________.
A.how Liz managed to enter Harvard UniversityB.what a hard time Liz had in her childhood
C.why Liz loved her parents so muchD.how Liz struggled to change her life
【小题3】What actually made her go towards her goal?
A.Envy and encouragement.B.Willpower and determination.
C.Decisions and understanding.D.Love and respect for her parents.
【小题4】When she wrote “What drove me to live on...I had only experienced a small part of the society”, she meant that ________.
A.she had little experience of social lifeB.she could hardly understand the society
C.she would do something for her own lifeD.she needed to travel more around the world
