Tina graduated from college. Several days later, she got a new job. She would work in the biggest company (公司) in her city. Her friends admired her very much.
On her first workday, Tina arrived at 8:45 a.m. She took the lift to the 11th floor (楼层), and a clerk showed her where her desk was. As a green hand, she didn’t know what to do, so she tried to talk to the girls who sat near her in the office. However, they were not friendly to her. After a while, a young boss came in. Tina was surprised that the boss was not the old man who interviewed her several days ago. The boss gave her a lot of reports to write. But when she began to write, she found that she had much trouble understanding the reports. She spent almost the whole day trying to do the work. At 5:30 p.m., it was time to go home. Although most of the reports weren’t finished, she got into the lift. On the 10th floor, she was greeted by John, the old man who interviewed her several days ago. “Tina!” he said, “Why didn’t you work with us today ” All of a sudden, Tina realized she mistook the 11th floor for the 10th floor. “Oh, my God!” she answered, “_____” After hearing this, John couldn’t help laughing.

Have you ever thought about what kind of job you would like to have when you grow up Many people think that we can have only one job in our lifetime. We all know that this is not true, but quite a few people actually think this way. For example, when people choose a major (专业) in college, they think that the decisions they make now will decide their jobs for the rest of their lives. However, there are many examples where people became successful after changing their careers (职业) later in life.
J. K. Rowling, writer of the famous novel Harry Potter, was actually a school teacher before she began writing books. In fact, she was out of work before the first Harry Potter book came out.
Former US President Ronald Reagan began as an actor when he was a young man. He later decided that he wanted to do political work. This kind of passion (激情) finally led him to become President of the United States.
The famous 19th century artist Vincent van Gogh was not a painter from the beginning. He once worked as an art salesman and later became a preacher. It was only 10 years before he died that he decided to become an artist.
Careers are always open to change. The important thing is to find what you are really good at or what you really want to do. Once you find that passion, it’s all a matter of how hard you try.
1.______ was a teacher before he (she) became famous.
A. Vincent van Gogh B. Ronald Reagan
C. J. K. Rowling D. Harry Potter

Dear Tony,
I would like to be a volunteer to introduce the Chinese culture to the Canadian teachers and students. I am interested in Peking Opera and know a lot about it. I can tell them about the history of the opera and even give them a short performance. I’m also good at Chinese painting, so I can teach them to draw something, such as a panda. After that, I’ll give them a painting of mine as a gift. I’ll try to make their visit to Beijing unforgettable.
I’m looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
