_____________. That was five years ago and he has no regrets about his new directi
on. “My previous work didn’t have an artistic element to it, whereas this is exciting and creative,” he says. “I really enjoy the design side.”

[A]Graham has become increasingly busy, supplying flat-packed weathervanes to clients worldwide.

[B]Graham decided to concentrate his efforts on a weathervane business. He had served an apprenticeship as a precision engineer and had worked in that trade for 15 years when he and his wife, Liz, agreed to swap roles—she went out to work as an architectural assistant and he stayed at home to look after the children and build up the business.

[C]Last month, a local school was opened with his galleon ship weathervane hoisted above it.

[D]“For centuries, weathervanes have kept communities in touch with the elements, signaling those shifts in wind direction that bring about changes in the weather,” he explains.

[E]Graham has no plans for expansion, as he wants to keep the business as a rural craft.

[F]Graham has now perfected over 100 original designs. He works to very fine detail, always seeking approval for the design of the silhouette from the customer before proceeding with the hand-cutting.

听力原文:F: 'I publish my own magazine, and it's very successful' How many people, at just
twenty- eight, can say that? Well, we have here a young businessman who can -- he is Alex Baker, who published the magazine Every Day. Welcome, Alex.

M: Hello.

F: Alex, did you think this magazine would be so successful so quickly? I mean, two years ago, it was just an idea. Eighteen months ago, you still hadn't found anyone to provide the finance, but this week you're celebrating its first anniversary.

M: No one is more surprised than me.

F: Two years ago, you weren't even working in the media, were you?

M: I had no experience of publishing or journalism at all. I was actually an accountant, working for a large holiday company. One day, I was reading a magazine about modern life and stress and I just said to my friends, hey, I could do better than this.

F: So what did you do then?

M: Well, 1 spent eight months knocking on the doors of just about every big London-based publishing company hoping to find one who would discuss the project. Finally, a friend, the managing director of a big insurance company, suggested I see Tony Rogerson, who's the editor of the magazine City Life. He liked my ideas for the new magazine, said they were exciting, and we started to meet regularly to develop and plan its publication.

F: He wasn't worried about the competition?

M: Oh, no. My magazine has a completely different subject from his -- we do both have the same sort of caree-minded readers, but they buy our magazines for completely different reasons: mine gives readers advice and help on how to look after themselves, how to keep fit. Of course, this sometimes includes ideas about what to do at the weekend, but his magazine is bought specifically by readers who want to know where to go and what to do in their free time -- dates, places, costs, recommendations.

F: And who do you have working for you? Do you ask your friends to write for the magazine?

M: Actually, I love my family and friends but the people I need, and any business needs -- to be successful, are those who really know what they're doing, with the qualifications, training, experience, the lot -- not necessarily well-known people, just the ones who are good at the job.

F: Indeed. Does the magazine now make enough money from advertising to keep going without too much outside investment?

M: Of course not, though our advertising income is excellent. Our first copy alone brought in over twenty thousand pounds, but we're still considered a risk by the the banks so we're lucky that we have several people willing to invest in us on a personal basis. Shall I tell you how many copies of the magazine we sold last month?

F: Forty, fifty thousand?

M: About seventy-five thousand. I'm really pleased sales have increased so rapidly. Apart from one month when they dropped slightly, sales have grown until they reached the seventy-five thousand mark three months ago, where they've stayed.

F: And how do you see the magazine?

M: I'm keen to see it read by more people, of course, but that doesn't mean I want to make any great changes. It looks good now, it feels right. I'm getting all the publicity I need. All I've got to work on is getting it out to more places so that it is more widely available. At the moment, it's basically only available in London. I want to make sure everyone can buy it. F: Well, good luck with that, Alex.

M: Thank you.

W: Oh. Is there always such a long line?

M: Every week. Sometimes longer. Is this your first time here?

W: Yes.

M: What happened? Your plant close down?

W: No. I'm a car salesperson, or, I was a car salesperson. But we just aren't selling cars. It's the interest rates. Two years ago, I averaged ten new cars a month. Do you know how many cars I sold last month? One. One car to a lady who had the cash. But the interest rates are up again. The boss let three of us go. How about you?

M: I worked at a vacuum cleaner plant with about fifty workers. We put in a good day's work. But the machinery was getting old. As a matter of fact, the whole plant was old. So the management decided to build a new plant. You know where? In Singapore. The workers here made about seven dollars an hour, a couple of people made about eight or nine an hour. You know how much they're paying the workers in Singapore? $ 2. 50 an hour. Who can live on $ 2. 50 an hour? Anyway, all fifty of us got laid off.

W: How long ago was that?

M: They closed down ten months ago.

W: Any luck finding another job?

M: Nothing. I have one, sometimes two, interviews a week. Last week I thought I had something. They liked my experience with machines. But I never heard from them again.

W: At least you know something about machines. All I can do is talk.

M: Maybe you'll talk yourself into another job. Good luck. I'll see you here next week.

W: I hope not. I hope I'll have something by then.
