take when i left university, so i took a couple of gap years travelling around north america. after travelling, i returned home and 37 in a restaurant where i was offered an assistant manager role. 38 the offer was appealing, it occurred to me that if i didnt start inspiring my enthusiasm, soon i would find myself relying on a(n) 39 wage and stuck in a career routine.at this time, in 2002, the digital industry was booming in the uk, and after looking into this area 40 , i realized i was very interested in 41 a career in web development. the main question was: where do i start? i had very

website, and a good investment (投资) for my friend, as it attracted new customers. eventually, i 52 a local web development agency which had already turned me down twice! to take a look at my work. the company was 53 that i was not going to give up on my passion, decided to take me 54 .after being offered the post, ive learned when it comes to careers, persistence often pays off. it demonstrates

of the house, but just as quickly, his face lit up again and he moved quickly towards the gate. there he stopped, looked at the sign, and 51 his head seriously as if he had made a bad mistake. 52 deeply into his pockets, he produced a piece of chalk, rubbed out the 53 sign and made a new one in its place. he stared at it for a moment smiling to himself, then gathered his 54 , pushed back his hat and began walking towards the next house at an unhurried 55 , whistling as he went along. 36. a. employed b. made c. taken d. put up 37. a. parents b. classmates c. fellows d. friends 38. a. share
