The jewellery designer
He was young and completely unknown, but Paul Waterhouse believed in himself. He'd heard that there was going to be a large exhibition for jewellery designers and he asked the organisers whether he could show some of his work. 'I was only 21,' he says, 'and they agreed, if I could show a complete collection.' So he went to the bank, borrowed £1,500 for materials, and began to work on new designs. 'The exhibition was fantastic. Although everyone else was much more experienced than I was, my designs were still praised.'
He decided to transfer his business to Canada and began to experiment with new materials: all sorts of stones from around the world, some totally new to him. 'As most of them weren't precious, it changed the way I approached design. It was great! I was able to produce much larger pieces of modern jewellery,' he says. 'Then I was asked by an advertising agency to design a wedding ring for a TV advert. The agency liked what I'd done, but their client, a car manufacturer, wanted something a little more traditional. I was happy to make changes and that work gave me a lot of free publicity.'
At the start of his career, Paul felt confident.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Doesn't say

第10题
M: I first became interested in do-it-yourself several years ago. You see, my son Paul is disabled. He's in a wheelchair and I just had to make alterations to the house.
W: Have you had any experience of this kind of work?
M: No. I got a few books from the library but they didn't help very much. Then I decided to go to evening classes so that I could learn basic carpentry and electrics.
W: What sort of changes did you make to the house?
M: First of all, practical things to help Paul. Just imagine the problems a disabled person would have in your house. We need a large house with wide corridors so that Paul could get from one room to another. We didn't have much money and we had to buy this one. It's over ninety years old and it was in a very bad state of repair.
W: Where did you begin?
M: The electrics. I completely rewired the house so that Paul could reach all the switches.
W: What else did you do?
M: By the time I'd altered everything for Paul, do-it-yourself had become a hobby. I really enjoyed doing things with my hands.
W: What are you working on now?
M: I've just finished the kitchen. Now I'm building an extension so that Paul will have a large room on the ground floor where he can work.
W: There's a $10,000 prize for the Do-it-yourself competition. How are you going to spend it?
M: I'm hoping to start my own business so that I can convert ordinary houses for disabled people. I think I've become an expert on the subject.
