--- lesson 31 success story[00:00:00]

--- first listen and then answer the question.[00:00:06]

--- what was frank's first job?[00:00:12]

yesterday afternoon frank hawkins was telling me about his experiences as a young man.[00:00:17]

before he retired, frank was the head of a very large business company, but as a boy he used to work in a small shop.[00:00:27]

it was his job to repair bicycles and at that time he used to work fourteen hours a day.[00:00:39]

he saved money for years and in 1958 he bought a small workshop of his own.[00:00:48]

in his twenties frank used to make spare parts for aeroplanes.[00:00:58]

at that time he had two helpers.[00:01:05]

in a few years the small workshop had become a large factory which employed seven hundred and twenty-eight people.[00:01:09]

frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success.[00:01:19]

he was still smiling when the door opened and his wife came in.[00:01:26]

she wanted him to repair their grandson's bicycle![00:01:32]

--- end[00:01:37]
