One Sunday morning my mother walked into my room. “   36   !” she said, proudly holding up a yellow    37    with black and white stripes. “I made it just for you. What do you think?”

I    38     my tongue. How could I tell Mom it was the most hideous（丑陋） one I had ever seen?

“It’s perfect for    39   ,” my mother continued. “I    40     someone had made a dress like this for me.”

    41   you can’t wear it, I thought. But I knew Mom had spent a lot of time on the dress. Only the world’s most     42    daughter would refuse. Reluctantly（不情愿的）. I put it on.

All through church I prayed, Lord, let me get out of here    43    anyone seeing me. Especially Dennis Pearce, the boy I had a crush on. He was one of the cutest (bright) guys at Neptune High. Although we were in some of the same classes, Dennis had    44    taken any notice of me.

At the end of the service（儀式） I    45    for the door. But I had to wait on the    46   while my parents chatted with their friends. Just a little while longer ... Then     47     the corner of my eye I saw the Pearce approaching（走近）.   48    I could escape, Dennis was right beside me.

I started gabbing(閑聊) a mile a minute（快）, hoping if I kept it    49     he wouldn’t notice my horrible dress. “I am going to college in September,” I said.

“That’s great,” Dennis replied. “I got   50   to the police academy.”

“Wow!” I said.  Somehow I kept the conversation going. Soon we were walking to the parking lot together. The next thing I knew Dennis had first asked me   51    .

We courted(相愛) through college, and eventually（最后） got married. Months after our wedding, I asked Dennis if he remembered the day  52  he had first asked me out.（約會）

“   53   bet I do,” he said. “You were always    54    in school, almost standoffish (coldhearted). I didn’t think you’d be much fun. But you were so animated (lively) when we talked on the church steps, I wanted to get to know you better.” Maybe that   55    yellow dress wasn’t what I would have chosen, but that day it was the perfect dress for me.

Chances

I really love my job because 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(職業(yè))．

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 morning 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(資格證書)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 part­time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.

Now I've got a full­time 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.

1.What is the author's present job?

A．Working part­time in a college.

B．Helping children with their schoolwork.

C．Looking after children at a kindergarten.

D．Taking care of children for a family.

2.When staying with the two girls' family, the author________.

A．was paid for extra work

B．got much help from her boss

C．took a day off every other week

D．often worked long hours

3.Why did the author leave her first job?

A．She decided to attend a part­time course.

B．She found a full­time job.

C．She was fed up with children.

D．She needed a rest after working extra hours.

4.What has the author learned from her own experiences?

A．Qualifications are necessary for a career.

B．Hard work makes an excellent student.

C．One must choose the job she likes.

D．Less successful students can still have a career.
