Ví dụ
It’s Galchenyuk’s third team in three seasons. The former third overall pick (2012) of the Montreal Canadiens has had a checkered career. He had offensive highs early in his career despite struggling to find a consistent (phù hợp) position. Was he a winger (cầu thủ chạy biên) or was he the star center he was drafted to be?

Bob graduated from Whitman College in Walla Walla, WA with a major in economics. As an adult, he had a checkered career that included early IT for Canadian Pacific Railroad and the Alaskan pipeline, real estate in California, distribution (phân phối) management for Riviana Foods in Houston and truck driving up and down the East Coast.

The 76-year-old Biden frequently references (nói về) his painful family history on the campaign trail, particularly the loss of his first wife and the struggle to raise two young boys on his own. Biden's younger son, Hunter, earned a law (luật) degree from Yale University and has had a checkered career as a lawyer and lobbyist (người vận động hành lang).
