When I was at school, my ambition was to be a pilot in the Air Force. But my eyesight wasn’t good enough. So I had to give up that idea. I went to university and studied physics. I wanted to stay on there and do research. [19] But my father died at about that time. So I thought I’d better get a job and earn my living. I started working in an engineering firm. I expected to stay in that job for a long time. [20] But then, they appointed a new managing director. I didn’t get on with him, so I resigned and applied for a job with another engineering company. I would certainly have accepted the job if they had offered it to me. But on my way to the interview, [21] I met a friend who was working for a travel agency. He offered me a job in Spain. And I had always liked Spain, so I took it. I worked in the travel agency for two years and then they wanted to send me to South America. But I had just got married. So I decided to stay here. [22] Then we had a baby and I wasn’t earning enough to support the family. So I started giving English lessons at a school in the evening. I liked English teaching more than working for the travel agency, and then the owner of the school offered me a full-time job as a teacher. So I resigned from the agency. Two years later, the owner of the school wanted to retire, so he asked me to take over as the director. And here I am.

19. Why did the man give up studying physics?
20. Why did the man resign from the engineering firm?
21. Why did the man take the job at the travel agency?
