Computer programmer David Jones earned £35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank prepared to let him have a check card, he has been told to wait another two years until he is 18.
He works for a small firm in Liverpool, where most young people of his age are finding jobs. David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money. Though he has high payment, he cannot drive a car, or get credit card(信用卡).
David got his job four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels(普通成绩)and 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 programs,” he said.
“I suppose £35,000 sounds a lot but 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 as he lives with his parents. But most of his spare time is spent working.
“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school, ” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway. I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”

谓语的时态问题
现在有两道造句题,不知道书上的答案对不对:
bill gates,computer programmer
答案:bill gates was a computer programmer at first.
我自己的解释是,比尔盖茨已经不是程序员了,所以要用was
那么,接下来还有一道题:
fei junlong nie haisheng, pilots,before
答案给的是:fei junlong nie haisheng are pilots before they became astronauts
为什么此时be动词要用are,如果用了are为什么后面要用became.
希望给出的答案有理有据,而不是根据答案牵强附会.我觉得似乎是答案错了.
嗯,我也觉得第一题是对的。

第一题我觉得意思和语法上没问题, 造句还加上了at first 更呼应了前面的was
第二题我觉得are 用的不对
不仅可以用were, 更准确的用had been, 表过去的过去
