1、With the newspaper in hand, I circled three positions to apply for the next morning. Even if I was fortunate enough to get hired right away, I'd be lucky to receive anything above minimum wage.
2、What was the use anyway? Really, what chance did I have of selling a novel? Everyone said I had to know someone if I was ever to get published—an editor, an agent, someone in the business. I didn't, and that was just one more strike against me.

1. 手捧着报纸，我在上面圈了三个明早要面试的位置。就算我能侥幸被当场录取，但要拿到高于最低工资的薪水也只能靠运气了.
apply for 申请职位,但这里根据语境应翻成"面试".
fortunate 侥幸
lucky 靠运气了, 撞大运了
2.这到底有什么用呢？我把小说卖出手的可能性有多大呢？每个人都跟我说, 要想出书, 得有熟人 —— 比如编辑，代理商，或者出版界的什么人。我谁都不认识。这(无形中)又给我添了个不利条件。
strike: 不利条件 An unfavorable condition, circumstance, or characteristic; a disadvantage: “[They] were trying to sell a movie with several strikes against it as a mass-audience ‘property’” (John Sayles).
1。手中拿着报纸，我圈了三个明天早上要申请的位置。如果我运气好到能当场被聘用，得到任何高于最低薪水的东西也是幸运的。
2。不管怎样，有什么用呢？确实，我卖小说有什么机会呢？每个人都说，我必须认识某些人才能得到出版——一个编辑，一个代理人，某些商业人士。我一个不认识。这只是对我的一个打击。
