1．John is my brother.Now he is a teen chef（主廚）. （1）當(dāng)他11歲的時候，他開始對做飯感興趣， partly thanks to our mother.Our mother didn't really like cooking.John didn't like her food.Once John was watching something about cooking on TV and he thought he could do this， （2）so he went to the book store and looked for the biggest cookbook he could find.
   During a year，he had produced most of its recipes（食譜）and was ready for a bigger challenge.He wanted to create his own dishes and he started cooking for more people than just our family.To his joy， （3）我們的父母允許他擁有自己的廚房。 He did much cooking to test his dishes in it and his skill improved quickly. （4）Later，he set up a club and organized monthly events inside our home. Now he does well in cooking and also cooks in top-class restaurants around the country. （5）He is not doing it for the money，but because he loves cooking. Now I know that when you stop caring if you'll be famous，your dream will come to you.
