for a job in radio. One day, I wanted to host a sports programme. 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.

a store and needed someone to help him. But again, I didn't get the job.

look for my job. I tried another radio station in Lowa. But the owner, a nice man, told me he had already

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 come back t o me, "One day your luck will change, Son. And when it

A few days ago, I was walking down the street when I met a group of students in uniforms. I was
shocked to see that the girls' skirts were very short and they were wearing a lot of make-up. The boys
looked very untidy. Their shirts were dirty and some of them even had their shirt fronts open. I noticed
that some of the students had their ears and noses pierced, which should not be allowed at school.
And the other day, I was on the subway when I saw some boys wearing uniforms of the same local
school. Instead of sitting quietly, these boys kept making noises and saying dirty words. All the other
passengers were looking at them and wondering how it was possible for students like these boys. They
were really showing a bad image( 形象) of their school, which was shameful.
I am a mother of two teenagers of the same school. After seeing those boys and girls, I am worried
if my children also behave like this. I don't know about it. Do students in this school know what is
allowed when they are wearing the school uniforms? I think the school should be stricter with the students,
and I think all the students should be taught how to be polite.
