For most people,graduation day is exciting.My graduation day, 1 ,was not. I remember that weekend two years ago.My family and my friends had come to watch our class walk across that 2 .But like everyone in my graduating class,I had watched the economy 3 from bad to worse during my senior year.We graduates had 4 but very limited prospects(前程).Numerous applications were 5 and I knew that the next day,when my lease(租约)ended,I would no longer have a place to 6 “home”.
The weeks 7 were not easy.I drove to California to find work.But what I thought would 8 me a week dragged into two,and then four,and 100 job applications later,I found myself 9 I was before.
Days 10 like weeks,weeks like months,and those many months seemed 11 .The most 12 part was that no matter how much I tried,I just couldn't seem to make any 13 .
Then I began to write.Something about putting words on a page made everything seem a little clearer—a little brighter.Something about writing gave me 14 .
I put my frustration into a children's 15 ,one story of which was about a(n) 16 ,a little fish,who,fighting in a “river”, 17 to give up his dream.I kept on writing.And then one day, 18 any sort of writing degree or contacts in the writing world—just a lot of hard work and perseverance—I was offered a publishing contract for my first book!After that,things began to be in 19 soon.I was offered a second book deal.Then a few months later,I got an interview with The Walt Disney Company and was hired shortly after.

The lesson of the story:Work hard,give it time and don't give up.Often our dreams lie in wait just a little further upstream.All we need is the 20 to push beyond the“river”.
