David Jones and His Salary
Computer programmer David Jones earns £35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank prepared to let him have a cheque card. Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18.
But Davids biggest headache is what to do with his money. Despite his salary, earned buy inventing new programs, with bonus payments and profit-sharing, he cannot drive a car, buy a house, or obtain credit cards.
David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school and working for a time in a computer shop. I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs, he said.
unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school, he said. But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.
Exercise:
A) Because he earns an extremely high salary.
C) Because he does not go out much.
2. Davids greatest problem is
B) inventing computer games.
D) learning to drive.
A) he had worked in a computer shop.
C) he had worked very hard.
4. He left school because
B) he wanted to work with computers and staying at school did not help him.
D) he wanted to earn a lot of money.
A) Because you have to be young to write computer programs.
C) Because he thinks computer games might not always sell so well.
