      So far, there have been so many successful men and women in the world. And it's no surprise for many of us to dream of doing business when we grow up. However, Moziah Bridge tells us quite different story.

      Moziah Bridges is now the CEO of his Mo's Bow's company. He has already earned $200,000 by selling bow ties and other men's fashion accessories(饰品). The boy designs all the bow ties together with seven other workers in the company, including his mother and grandmother.

    “Mo is the CEO of the company, but I am the CEO of Mo,”Bridges' grandma said.

About four years ago, when Bridges went shopping for bow ties, he found they were in ugly" black and red. He wanted a change. So he asked his grandma to teach him to sew(缝纫)and finally he developed the talent of creating bow ties. Though his very first bow tie didn't look nice, the young sewer kept on practicing. He used colorful cloth with different pictures. Then his parents and friends started to like his works.

       At first he tried to sell them online to several stores in the south. Soon Mo's bow ties became popular. With the help of Dayond John, CEO of the famous US clothes brand FUBU, Bridges built his own company. Not only did Daymond John provide money for him, but also produced Bridges to the circle of fashion and business industries.

      Now the 13-year-old's business has developed rapidly. So you can just start now! You don't have to wait till you're older. If you have a dream, go for it!

    Considered one of the greatest English writers,Rudyard Kipling was born on December 30,1865,in Bombay, India.Young Kipling was especially close to his mother.For Kipling,India was a wonderful place.He learned the language and connected with the country and its culture.

    However, at the age of six,Kipling's life changed when his mother, wanting her son to receive a good education in British schools,sent him to Southsea,England,where he attended school and lived with a family named the Holloways.

  These were hard years for Kipling.Mrs.Holloway was a strict woman.She beat and laughed at the young man,who also tried to be good at school.

Kipling's solace(安慰)came in books and stories.With few friends,he made himself busy in reading,but Mrs. Holloway always took away his books.

    Kipling's mother finally knew about her son's hard life.She rushed back to England and placed him in a new school in Devon.There,Kipling discovered his interest in writing,later becoming editor(编辑)of the school newspaper.

    In 1882,Kipling returned to India and worked for a magazine,writing poetry and stories in his spare time.In 1892,he married Caroline Balestier.Then,the couple lived in America.Kipling seemed to love his new life,which soon saw the Kiplings welcome their first and second children.As a writer,too,Kipling wrote The Jungle Book(1894),The Naulahka:A Story of West and East(1892)and The Second Jungle Book(1895).Kipling was delighted to be around children.His books enchanted(使着魔)girls and boys all over the English—speaking world.In 1907,he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature(文学)and became the first English author in the Nobel history.
