For most people, graduation is an exciting day, but my graduation day was not.
I remember that weekend two years ago. Family and friends had flown in from across the country to   36  the celebration. But just like everyone else in my class, I had watched the  37   turn from bad to worse in my senior year. Almost all of us graduates had degrees, but very uncertain   38 .
The weeks ahead weren’t   39 . I knew my small university town couldn’t offer me any opportunities,   40  I packed up my car and drove to Southern California to find work. But what I thought would take a   41   dragged into two, and then four, and 100 job applications later, I found myself in the exact same   42  as I was before.
You know that feeling when you wake up in   43  ? That feeling became a constant in my life. Days felt like weeks, weeks like months, and those many months felt like everlasting   44 . And the most annoying part was no matter how much I tried, I just couldn’t seem to make any   45  .
So what did I do to keep my good sense? I decided to    46 . Something about putting words on a page made everything seem a little clearer — a little brighter. Something about writing gave me    47 . And if you want something  48 enough, sometimes a little hope is all you   49 !
I put my thoughts into a children’s book. Beyond the River was the story of an unlikely hero, a little fish, who   50  to give up his dream.
And then one day, without any sort of writing degree or contacts in the writing world — just a lot of hard work and determination —I was offered a   51  contract for my first book! After that, things slowly began to fall into   52  . I was offered a second book deal. Then, a few months later, I got an interview with the Walt Disney Company and was   53  shortly after.
Don’t give up. Even if things look   54  now, don’t give up. If you work hard, things will always get better. Often times our dreams lie in wait just a little further upstream ... all we need is the   55   to push beyond the river.

This  55  child taught me that being a nurse means respect, kindness and patience.

At Ashville, there was a crossroad where I could go on along the main road or I could take a short cut. The short cut was to  4  several hills and was dangerous. I hesitated for a little while and then chose the main road, for I wanted to be  5 .

Thinking it  10 , I decided to go on. “If  11  people can go along this road, why can’t I?” I  12   myself.
The short cut, to my surprise, was not that  13 . In fact, it was only a very peaceful country road,  14  up and down two low  15 . There was  16  traffic. On both sides of the road, you could see trees, wild flowers, and  17  with cows and horses. My fear was  18  with the wind. Listening to the beautiful country music over my car stereo (立體聲), I drove on and  19  the scenery which was so quiet and so natural. Even my used car forgot to give me  20 . It was just in this light-heartedness that I arrived at my destination. My friends, after they heard what had happened to me, all said it sounded like an adventure.

Ann was on her first package trip in Rosas, Spain.
At the hotel, she checked in, and then went to her room to change before dinner. She was just ready to go downstairs when she found that her Spanish money wasn’t in her handbag. She carefully looked in all her luggage, but she couldn’t find it. All she had was a small purse with ten English pound notes in it!
Ann found a place to change her English money. She had very few pesetas(西班牙貨幣單位), and she would be here for two weeks. On her way back to the hotel, Ann bought some cheese, some bread and some oranges. When she got back, she told the manager that her doctor had told her not to eat Spanish food; she’d just have breakfast each day, as she knew the price of hotels included breakfast.
For the rest of her holiday, Ann swam in the hotel swimming pool, or lay on the beach and got a sunbath. When the other tourists went to interesting places, she always said she wasn’t well. In fact, her holiday wasn’t bad, except that she was always hungry. After all, a piece of fruit for lunch, and bread and cheese for supper isn’t very much.
Late in the afternoon of their last day, a girl, Jane, asked her why she never ate with them in the hotel restaurant. Ann told her about her money problems. Jane looked at her for a minute, and then said, “But didn’t you know? The price of this holiday includes everything!”

I wasn’t surprised when I read that actress Helen Hunt recently stated that she would never allow her young daughter to become a child star. Ms Hunt is the daughter of a Hollywood technical director, and grew up in Hollywood. Now in her late 40s, she started acting and modeling when she was eight and has probably seen a lot over those years in show business.
She has had a successful career. She earned four Golden Globes and four Emmys. She also attained the top honor of her profession when she won the Best Actress Academy Award for her role in the 1992 movie, As Good As It Gets. Given those accolades, Ms Hunt is successful. There is no doubt that her early experiences as a child star prepared her for what has been an outstanding adult career. Given those achievements, why would this star declare she’ll never allow her daughter, now at the age of six, to follow in her footsteps?
Everyone familiar with the entertainment scene is aware of the reasons for her attitude. Recent tabloid (小報(bào)) news headlines featuring the troubles of former child stars, among them Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and the late Gary Coleman, may answer the question. Although Ms Hunt managed to become a successful grown-up star, she apparently believes she’s an exception.
What Ms Hunt may be suggesting is that many very young stars go through unnatural childhoods on movie and TV sets. While they’re earning big incomes, they’re so pampered (縱容) by directors and praised by fans; they may get false impressions that their lives will always be that way. Then, within a few years, when faced with reality, they’re hurt and confused. After all the overwhelming affection, they find they can’t deal with the problems. That’s often when drugs and alcohol take over their lives.
Helen Hunt has some other reasons why she doesn’t want her daughter to be in the entertainment business. Many child stars can never make a successful transition to meaningful adulthood. However, as with many Hollywood movies, I believe there are both good and bad scenes about how it can be played out in real life.

A．started acting and modeling when she was a little girl

B．being a child star may ruin her future
