While I was at school, I 1 train with Spurs on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I also 2 for English schoolboys, so I suppose I was 3 a school boy star.
I didn't really get into 4 at school. I had my two elder brothers there for 5 of the time that I was there, so my stay at the school wasn't that hard. 6 other children had a really hard time.
I left 7 the end of the Fourth Year, and that caused a bit of trouble. I was allowed 8 maths and technical drawing early. I passed them 9 , but unfortunately I failed in woodwork. If I'd stayed on 10 12 subjects like the other children.
It was a big decision to leave early so as 11 take all my exams. It could have meant that I'd wasted 12 years. But how many could get the 13 that I had? I'm told that only one in 1000 makes it in 14 , so you have only a very slim chance. But I decided to go for it and looking back it was the 15 thing to do.
I didn't support Spurs 16 a boy. I supported QPR, my local team. But to play for Spurs, 17 had just won the FA Cup, was interesting to me. There were so many 18 , and of course Bill Nicholson was the 19 then!a great manager.
I didn't have any girlfriends at 20 .I was 21 deeply involved (�殲�) in football that I didn't have time. 22 I don't have direct contact with my old school friends, I own a sports 23 in the area, so they often drop into the shop and talk about the old days, 24 is really nice. I'm always pleased to see them.
I would advise anyone 25 to be a footballer to stay on at school to do their exams. If a club wants you badly enough they'll come in for you later.

The Grand Ole Opry, in Nashville, Tennessee, has always been America¨s most important concert hall for country music. Every Saturday night the place is filled to the ceiling with country music 1 .
One 2 in January 1967, was a very 3 night at the Opry. For the first time, a 4 man was an attraction(哈繁廣朕). 5 music had always been thought of as^White music ̄. For many, it was a strange 6 to see Charley Pride step 7 the Opry stage. Some people left 8 about whether a black man could sing country songs. 9 Charley¨s smooth voice quickly 10 over the Opry 11 , Charley was so good that before long, he was country music¨s biggest 12 .
Like many country singers, Charley was 13 on a farm. He spent his youth milking cows and picking cotton. But he knew he wasn't going to make 14 his career(岼匍). Later he became a baseball player.
Charley made it to a major(麼勣議)league team. But he didn¨t stay on for more than one season.
In the winter, after the baseball season, Charley 15 at a local nightclub. One evening, Red Sovine, a great country music star, 16 Charley Red and told Charley to forget about 17 and go for a singing career.

Any 13 in the position of the make-believe (倡更議) stars 14 a change in the direction of his flight.
Scientists think that warblers, 15 flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But stars are clearly their important 16 of navigation (擬砂). What do they do when the stars are 17 by the clouds? Clearly, they find their way by such land. 18 as mountain ranges, coastlines (今斡��) and river courses. But when it¨s too 19 to see these, the warblers circle 20 , unable to find out where they were.
