The last year of high school is a time for had work and also a time for thinking. At this time, you have to start thinking about the future and what you want to do after graduation. In this article, I am going to discuss some of the options ____21___ you.
??When choosing a career, you should consider all the aspects of a job. For example, there is the so-called glamorous (迷人的) job of beginning a model or an actor. Would you like to be famous, wear diamonds, go to parties and relax on cushions in private jets or helicopters? In reality, these people have to spend long hours traveling, and only a very small number of them are successful. Those who are successful and famous are under huge pressure to appear young and beautiful. Most actors and models are always on a diet, and many have painful ___22___ to make their faces and bodies look more attractive. It does not seem that glamorous now, does it?
???Other popular ___23___ for young people include careers in law or business. Many people have ___24___ to become successful as a lawyer or business person, but they do not __25__ the stress and pressure that come with these jobs. These can be well-paid and interesting jobs, but you also have to work very long hours. Also, sometimes as a boss in the business world, you have to make difficult decisions that hurt people, and being a lawyer can ___26____ facing tough moral issues.
???On the other hand, some people find more unusual jobs that are better suited to their talents and interests. A few years ago, when I was hiking in the Grand Canyon National Park in the USA, I met a man living by a steam in a tent surrounded by technical ___27___ , and his only neighbors were the birds and squirrels in the nearby trees. His job was to check noise pollution in the park zones. He loved camping, and his job was like a holiday for him. There are many other people doing unusual jobs, such as a beer taster at a brewery, a person who designs fireworks displays and a person who tests rides for amusements parks.
Similarly, many ordinary jobs may look dull, but they are as essential as water to our society. As we ___28_____ through our daily lives, we meet many different kinds of people--shop assistants; drivers; barbers and cleaners. These jobs may not seem very attractive, but they are all important. For example, if no one was to __29___ the rubbish, the streets would soon become very dirty and unpleasant, the number of rats would increase, and disease would spread. These people, who __30_ such ordinary but vital tasks, allow people to go about their daily lives.

Winston Churchill (1874-1965) was born into a famed family. His father was a successful politician. In October 1900, Churchill was elected to Parliament for the first time. In 1939, Germany attacked Poland, and the following year, he became the Prime Minister of England.
???France fell. The Germans crushed Western Europe. Britain was on the edge of complete defeat. Was it not possible to ask for peace, and make talks with Hitler? Churchill spoke, “?I have nothing to offer but blood, tears and sweat. You ask what is our aim? I can answer in one word: Victory!”
?? The Germans began gathering their armies on the French coast and prepared to invade Britain. The Britain had not enough rifles to go around. Churchill gave the answer, “We shall defend our island, whatever cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the land ground, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills, we shall never surrender.”
By his courage, hard work and faith, Churchill inspired his people. Victory finally came when the Germans were defeated at the end of World War I.
Here is a well-known story told about Churchill.
During the Second World War, Winston Churchill was the British prime minister. One day he had to go to the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) to make an important speech to the nation.
An hour before the time of his speech, he stopped a taxi in the street and asked the driver to take him to the BBC, but the taxi driver, who did not recognize him, said he could not take him anywhere just then, because he wanted to go back to his home at the other end of London to hear Churchill make a speech on the radio.
?Churchill was so pleased when he heard his answer that he gave the man a pound, which was worth quite a lot in those days.
?“All right, get in.”?said the driver happily, opening the door of the taxi. “I will take you , and to hell with Churchill and his speech.”
