When I was little, my mother began selling flowers in Camden Market. She couldn’t  36 me at home on my own,   37  I had to go to the market with her.

  38 , I didn’t have to do anything. I just sat there, and my mother told me jokes and stories so I didn’t get   39 .When I got older, I gave my mother a hand and I really enjoyed it.

Then one year, my grandma gave me a book for Christmas. It was all about making candles and I loved it. I was 14, and I didn’t have to go to the market  40 because my mother could leave me at home on my own. I  41 my free time making candles of all shapes and sizes. I made  42 them.

One day, my mother was ill, so I had to go to the market on my own. I decided to  43 some candles with me and see  44 I could sell them. They  45 in 20 minutes! The next week, my mother gave me some money to buy some wax (蠟) to make more candles. They were sold out really quickly, too.

Ten months later, we decided  46 flowers. My mother and I couldn’t make enough candles during the week, so some of my friends started to help us. I paid them one pound  47 every candle, and we   48 sell them for three or four times. It was fun and my friends worked with me in the market.

At the age of 22, my uncle  49 me some money and I opened my first shop in Portobello Road. Since then, I’ve  50 looked back, even in difficulties. In the first store, we only sold candles, but now we sell everything from the designer, furniture to paintings. Oh, and candles, of course.

One day an old man went into a cafeteria (自助餐廳) to eat in America for the first time. He sat down at an empty table and waited for   43   to take his order. Of course nobody did. Finally, a woman with a plate full of food sat down opposite him and told him how a cafeteria   44  .

“I soon learned that’s how everything works in the US,” the old man later told a friend. “  46   is a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want   47   you are willing(自愿的) to pay the price. You can even get success, but you’ll never get it if you wait for someone to   48   it to you. You have to get up and get it yourself.”
