indicate the correct answer to each of the questions .

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.

The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young

people of his age is finding a job. David's firm

releases

two new games for the expanding

home computer market each month.

But David's biggest headache is what to do with his money.

Despite his salary, earned by inventing new programs within tight schedules, with

bonus payments and profit-sharing, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage, or obtain

credit cards.

He lives with his parents in their council house in Liverpool, where his father is a bus

driver. His company has to pay £150 a month in taxi fares to get him the five miles to work

and back every day because David cannot drive.

David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after

leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. "I got the job

because the people who run the firm knew 1 had already written some programs," he said.

"I suppose £35,000 sounds a lot but actually that's being

pessimistic. I hope it will

come to more than that this year." He spends some of his money on records and clothes, and

gives his mother £20 a week. But most his spare time is spent working.

"Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school," he said. "But 1 had

been studying it in books and 'magazines for four years in my spare time. 1 knew what 1

wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are

fairly young, anyway."

David added: "I would like to earn a million and 1 suppose early retirement is a possibility.

You never know when the market might disappear."
