Read the passage and choose the correct answer for each question
CARTER’S BOTTLES- A YOUNG MAN’S BUSINESS
At home, Carter Kostler’s parents prepared jugs of water flavored with fresh healthy fruit. The
family enjoyed it, but Carter noticed his mum found the not-so-healthy soft drinks from the shops
were more convenient to take whenever she went out.
He knew his mum would rather choose a healthier option, and in school he and his friends were
studying health problems connected with many soft drinks. This encouraged Carter to create a new
kind of bottle himself to let everyone carry flavored water with them.
He proudly showed his parents drawings of his clever design. It was an unusual bottle, with two
separate parts. Fruit is in the bottle part, then the “strainer” – a piece of plastic with tiny holes-is
attached between the two parts. The water flows through the strainer, leaving the fruit behind.
Although Carter felt the design was ready to be used for business, when he had some bottles
produced by one factory, he was shocked at their quality, so he found another to do it. Now they’re
perfect and selling well. Carter likes being in charge, busy with customers, but there’s a balance
between running a business and seeing friends. Carter’s lucky: “I have lots of family here. When I’m
out with friends, they do what needs doing.”
As for his plans, Carter’s got lots of ideas for new style ready, but he enjoys seeing if a new idea
succeeds with customers, rather than running the business. So what advice would he give other
people? “Be prepared, and have family support. Success doesn’t come immediately. Also expect the
unexpected!”
