Lesson 31 Success story

First listen and then answer the question

What was Frank's first job?

Yesterday afternoon Frank Hawkins was telling me aboat his experiences as a young man.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.It was his job to repair bicycles and at that time he used to work fourteen hours a day.He saved money for years and in 1985 he bought s small workshop of his own.In his twenties Frank used to make spare parts for aeroplanes ,At that time he had two helpers.In a few years the small workshop had become a large factory which employed seven hundred and twenty-eight peopie.Frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success.He was still smiling when the door opened and his wife came in.She wanted him to repair their grandson's bicycle!

训练感想：感觉放了水，把任务延迟了就没有啥感悟的，感到的就是纠结，所幸补上了。
