I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: When I began to move to Auckland to study the law, my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India, where we lived. She worried about the shortage of jobs and the cultural differences that I would face. I came to New Zealand in July 2013. I found the people were very nice and supportive. Soon after I arrived, I realized the importance of getting a part time job to make a living. Deciding to do this on my own, I spent a whole day going from door to door for a job. However, I received a little or no reply. This became my daily activity after college for a few weeks. One afternoon, I walked into a building to ask if there were any job chances. The people there were very surprised, and advised me not to continue my job search in that way. As I was about to leave, a secretary in the building came up to me and encouraged me to stay confident. He then offered to take me to the Royal Oak area to search for a job. Along the way, I realized I had run out of copies of my resume . The man stopped at his friend's office to make me 15 extra copies. He also gave me tips on dressing and speaking. I handed out my resume and went home. The following day, I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job. It seemed that the world always gives back to you when you need it. And this time, it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing . Question: After staying in New Zealand for a short time, the writer realized _ . Options: A: he needed to find a job to make a living B: people there were not very friendly C: he should always stay confident D: it was easy to get a new job
