W: So many books here! Which one do you think Kate would like?
M: No idea. How about Tasty Fish? It's fifteen pounds and it's got so many color pictures in it.
W: So does the book Something Fishy. It has also got many instructions for cooking.
M: It seems to be fairly traditional. How about Worldwide Fish?
W: Oh, it looks more like a reference book than a cookbook. A lot of reading and not many pictures.
M: It's interesting, though. The way it's organized, fish by fish.
W: That's true. How much is it?
M: 12 pounds.
W: And the one I picked up first?
M: Something Fishy? Oh, here it is. That's 17 pounds.

W: Hello, and welcome to our program of successful business women. Today, we are looking at the story of Maria Silvers, the founder of a chain of coffee bars. She comes from Singapore, but later moved to London with her family. Her father, who was a factory manager, filled her with a belief in hard work. Maria studied political science at university. After leaving university, she became a teacher. When her father died, she went to New York for a break. Every morning, she'd go to a coffee bar. When she got back to London, she realized that there was nothing like those coffee bars. So she decided to give up her job and do something about it. She opened the first coffee bar in 1995 and her success was quick. She opened 10 more the following year. Now she's proud of her success, and plans to open 80 more besides the 85 she already has. And Maria is only 33 years old.
