II. Read the text. Decide if the sentences are true or false and put a T (true) or an F (false) in the boxes below. Computer programmer David Jones makes 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. Davids firm releases two new games for the expanding home-computer market each month. But Davids biggest headache is what to do with his money. Despite his salary, earned by inventing new programmes, with bonus payments, he cannot drive a car or obtain credit cards. He lives with his parents in their house in Liverpool, where his father is a bus driver. Davids company has to pay 150 in taxi fares just because David cannot drive. David got his job four months ago, after 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 programmes, he said. I hope it will come to more than 35,000 this year. But most of my spare time is spent working. Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school. But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my free time. I knew what I wanted to do. I would like to earn a million. 1p 1p 1p 1p 1p 1p 1p 1p 1p 1p 1.
