I am a kindergarten teacher and I do love my job, as I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.
I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn’t the type to have a career.
I then found myself a job looking after two little girls. It wasn’t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week，she’d give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn’t often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.
One Sunday, I was in the park with the children，and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification（资格证书）if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.
Now I’ve got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren’t top of the class at school.

Some teenagers start to drink alcohol at a young age.They think it is part of becoming an adult. They also think drinking is not that bad because so many people do it.
Parents may start to notice a change in their child’s behavior if the child starts drinking. Teenagers who drink sometimes stop doing things they normally like to do.

When I graduated from college, the job market was really bad. I did many first-round interviews and second-round interviews. My interviews turned out to be bad. In honesty, I do need a job. Are you going to give me a job?
No matter how many jobs I looked at, however, nothing felt like the right choice for me. At the end of my endless job struggle, I faced a big decision. I could have moved to New York as everyone from college did. But I was practical. I needed a big change.
So instead, I took a job in a city I had never been to. And it was Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was amazing and it was the best decision I’d ever made.
Looking back, it was mostly crazy. I had the best year of my life. I met people from all over the world. I danced until six on the weekends, feeling the weird experience of it being night and morning at the same time. My bag got washed away by rain in Rio de Janeiro. I climbed up the Pao de Azucar to see one of the most beautiful views I’ve ever seen. I worked with young women who needed career advice and English help. I worked really hard and I knew what it was like to build a life.
My time in Argentina gave me big distance, really, from everything and everyone I knew. It turned my life upside down to figure out what I wanted. I came back to the United States with a fresh view and a strong knowledge of myself. It was also in Argentina that my first tries at humor writing began, something that I enthusiastically continue today as a PR business man and an author.

A. He felt satisfied because he learned much and enjoyed himself.
B. He felt tired because he danced with friends until six on the weekends.
C. He felt sad because his bag was washed away by rain.
D. He felt happy because he saw beautiful views and helped others.
35. When did he begin writing in a humorous way?
A. When be became a PR business man.
B. When he was in Argentina.
C. When he graduated from university.
D. When he went back to the United States.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
36．_________ If you’re looking for a challenging situation to practice your English, just pick up the telephone.

Here are some tips.
Greetings
37．_________ Even if you’re calling a business contact for a specific purpose, it’d be rude to jump right into business without a little small talk at the beginning.

Closing the call
39．________ Sometimes it’s easiest to just say you enjoy speaking to the other person. Also, keep in mind that cleverly saying the word “well” at the beginning of a sentence can show that you are ready to end the conversation：40.________.
A. It may be the time to offer some good wishes, such as “good luck on your success”．
