   “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 find 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 with a small station and work your way up,” she said.
     I went back home. I couldn't get a job there, either. Then my dad told me a businessman had opened a store and needed someone to help him. But again, I didn't get the job.
     I felt really down. “ Your luck will change,” Mom said to me. Dad lent me the car to help me to look for my job. I tried another radio station in Iowa. But the owner, a nice man, 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, it'll feel doubly(加倍的) good because of all the hard work you've had.” At that moment I knew what just what she meant.

    During my first two weeks at the University of California, Berkeley, I experienced some unexpected, funny, and sometimes embarrassing(令人尴尬的) situations. Allow me to share some with you.
    But first, let me give advice to other foreign students who plan to study in the United States. Check the weather before coming! I was very sure that California was sunny all year around so I left all my jackets and sweaters in Paris. It was a huge mistake! It rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley.
    I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky events. Life in Berkeley is very pleasant and everything is so easy compared to Paris. For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phone and made the lease(租约) agreement for a flat. What's more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday, which is very practical for me.
    The first thing that surprised me is that students may come late to class. They freely enter and leave the classroom many times during class. In France, students respect the teacher's lesson, so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of the class.
    The local people in California are in general very nice, open and active, However, I am not totally used to their habits yet. Indeed, I was used to shaking my friends' hands every day in France. During my second day at Berkeley, I shook the hand of one of my classmates whom I had met the day before and he told me “I think we already met!”
    Another funny story happened during the first party I attended: A girl that I meet before came to hug me. I thought she wanted to kiss me like we usually do in France to say hello. So I kissed her and she seemed a little bit embarrassed.
    I live a great experience at present, and I would just encourage any student to become a member in  a program at UC, Berkeley.

The editor of the school newspaper was leaving so the paper would need a new editor. Hearing the news, Tara knew it was her 1 .

Tara had always wanted to improve the paper. Unluckily, most students cared little about 2 . There were not any nice pictures, but the real 3 was that the stories couldn't attract the kids. 

After class, Tara talked to Mr. Alvarez, the headmaster, about her wish to be the editor. "We've 4 had a sixth grader in charge. Editing the paper is a big job, even for an eighth grader." he said, "And we may not have a paper much longer because of budget cut."

Tara stepped forward and said 5 , "I can make students like the paper and do my best to make it pay for itself." Mr. Alvarez 6 Tara's offer and agreed, "You only have three weeks before the budget meeting."

Tara didn't lose any time. During lunch, she 7 the newspaper group and told them about her conversation with Mr. Alvarez. 

"We should do something 8 the newspaper and make it different. Now we need 9 teams." Tara said to the group. "The sales team will work on getting advertisers to help us 10 the paper. And the editorial team need to discover stories students like."

The group nodded 11 they felt a bit unsure about the new leader. They started to discuss how to improve the paper. 

The editorial team created a questionnaire to know what students were 12 . The sales team visited many local businesses. By the end of the week, things were going well. The group gathered again for further improvement. 

They came up with a 13 idea—create an online paper with more cool pictures and even videos. Everyone couldn't wait to have a try. 

The big day finally came. The group presented the paper at the meeting. When it was time to vote, every hand in the room went up for 14 their ideas. 

"Well done, students." Mr. Alvarez said to Tara's group. "Your 15 really works."
