in a park. He sold drinks there. Frank wanted to taste a frozen drink. One cold
night, he left a glass of drink with a wooden stick in it outside. The drink froze.
The next morning he tasted and loved it. He took it to the school and his classmates
liked the taste. Frank called his invention "ep-sicles", but his friends liked the
name "popsicles" more. He agreed. Thanks for my favourite snack, Frank Epperson!

From early childhood Ryan loved the business world. He was different from other children. He wanted to earn money. When he was a small child, he started to sell Halloween candies on the bus and earned his first money. One day, Ryan and his family decided to have a dog. It was a bit difficult for them at the beginning. They bought different dog treats. But the dog didn't like any. So, Ryan decided to prepare delicious dog treats for his new friend. He researched a lot and finally started to make the treat. The dog liked the treat very much. Later, Ryan gave this treat to other dogs on the street and they also liked it. Soon, Ryan started his business of selling dog treats. He could earn $800 at the beginning. One day, Ryan appeared on the show Tank Shark. He was the youngest in the show. But it didn't stop him. He agreed with Barbara Corcoran and got $25,000 in exchange for 25% of his business. After the show, Ryan became very famous and he started to earn more. At school, students called him "the Shark Tank kid".

Hi! I am Mike. I am 18 years old. I think drone flying is an unusual hobby. I started it two years ago. I use my drone to take photos and videos. Now I have a collection of 540 photos and 130 videos. I share the photos and videos on my blog. My followers like them a lot and I get a lot of positive comments. I also visit exhibitions of drones in other countries. There is a drone racing competition in my city this summer. I am planning to enter that competition next year.
Track 10
I am Amy. I like spending time in nature. My grandpa also likes it a lot. He is 85 years old now and he can't walk much. Until some years ago, his hobby was gardening. He enjoyed spending a lot of time outside. In his garden, he used to grow unusual trees and plants. He didn't use to spend much time in the house. We didn't use to see him in the house very often. Now I am taking care of my grandpa's garden. I don't spend as much time as he did because I am working in a hospital.
