Probably not. The excitement of living is that you dont know whats coming. Sure, its hard to see uncertainty in such positive（积极的）light when youre out of work, or when you feel like youre failing. But uncertainty is really another word for chance. When Allison graduated from Harvard, she had chan ces all over the place but had no idea what she wanted to do. She took a job in consulting（咨询）, but she knew she wouldnt stay there. She took the GRE and scored so high that she was able to increase her income（收入）by teaching students. Still, she didnt think she wanted to go to graduate school. Allison knew she wasnt doing what she wanted, but she didnt know what she wanted. She worried. All her friends were going to graduate school or starting their own businesses. She was lost and felt that she would never find anything out. After six years, Allison, by having a general（全面的）plan in mind, got married, moved to the Midwest, and used her consulting experience to get a great job. Allison realized that she spent her years finding her way: time well spent, and time we must all take if were being honest with ourselves. The only way to lead an interesting life is to face uncertainty and make a choice. Otherwise your life is not your ownit is a path someone else has chosen. Moments of uncertainty are when you create your life, when you become who you are. Uncertainty usually begins with a job hunt, but it doesnt end there. Every new role we take on means another round of uncertainty. Instead of fearing it, you should find some ways to deal with uncertainty.（1）From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that .A.being out of work is a sad thingB.uncertainty is what makes life interestingC.life in a film is more exciting than real life.D.chance never appears when we need it（2）What troubles Allison after graduation?A.She couldnt find a well-paid job.

It lets us see as well as hear the actor. Since its appearance, TV has done a great deal in the daily life of people everywhere. Many programmes are now televised in colour.Perhaps the most modern invention is Telstar, a star moving around the Earth. It makes it possible for people all over the world to be closer than ever before.
