The actors often wear the most beautiful and fashionable clothes and they can make a lot of money. Many people like them and they have so many fans. But in fact, the job of an actor can be very tiring and hard. To make good movies, for example, action movies, the actors need to go to some remote(偏远的) places. There they dont have good places to stay or nice food to eat. They often have to get up early and go to bed very late. When they are too busy, they dont have time to sleep or relax. Its very hard.() 68. Why do so many people think it is admirable to be an actor AThey think actors are fashionable. BThey think actors are rich. CThey think their clothes are beautiful.

The life of actors is hard.D. What does an actor eat and wear every dayD Knowing about yourself not only means finding out what youre good at and what you like, it also means discovering（发现） what youre not good at and what you dont like. Both help you to see your aims in life. Although most students would be unhappy if they failed a very difficult physics examination, they have in fact learned a lot about themselves. They know that they should not become engineers or physical scientists. So failing can help a student to live a happier life if he learns something from it. They may then decide on their aims and choose the work they like and are fit for. It is impossible to decide whether you like something until you have tried it. If you decide to play the piano, you need to take more than one lesson before knowing whether you are really interested in it or able to do well.It is not enough if you want to be a great pianist. You also have to like the hard practice and long training. If you enjoy being a great pianist but hate the work, forget it. Its a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are young. Then you will find out what your true interests are. () 72 Most students feel _if they cant get good grades in a difficult physics exam.A. happy B. excited C. angry D. sad() 73.
