Welcome to Youth Radio, your radio. Here we’re proud to introduce three Amazing Kids.

Gina, who is thirteen years old, got the first prize in the “Young Cook of the Year” competition(竞赛) and she wants to write a recipe book for kids. “I want it to be fun to read and easy enough for children to use,” she says. Gina learned by watching her father, who’s also good at cooking, in the kitchen. She wants to encourage (鼓励) other children to cook because everyone needs to eat so it’s a skill that will always be useful!

Seventeen-year-old Brain used to love running until he was hurt in a serious accident three years ago. He lost part of one leg and didn’t even expect to walk again. Now he’s an athlete who has recently taken part in a long race. “After my accident I wanted to give up,” he says. “But now I’m happy to be alive and able to continue running.”

Helen has always been good at science, but she thought it was too difficult to become an inventor. Then she heard about an accident that had happened when a car hit a train in her town. “That gave me an idea,” says the clever sixteen-year-old. It took her over a year to invent a small special machine that tells car drivers when a train is coming. One company is already interested in selling it, so it may be in the shops soon!

British people are famous for drinking tea. But brother and sister, Sahar and Bobby Green, became young millionaires (百万富翁) when they opened a chain of American-style (美国风味的) coffee shops in the U.K.

Having the idea: It started when Sahar took a weekend trip to New York to visit her brother Bobby. One evening, in a Thai restaurant, Sahar told Bobby how much she wished she could buy American-style coffee in London. Bobby suggested they start their own coffee shop. Sahar fell in love with the idea.

Doing the Research: Back in London, she spent a whole day on the London subway, getting off the train at different stations to taste the coffee. “It was terrible, and I knew there was a gap in the market.” In November 1995, they opened their first Coffee Republic shop in central London.

Making it work: The first year was very difficult. There were problems finding and keeping staff, and British people were not used to the names of American coffees, like latte and macchiato. But being successful was their dream and they were not going to give up. Today, there are over 100 Coffee Republic shops all over the country and the company has revenues (收入) of ￡30 million a year.

Advice for others: Sahar has now written a best-selling book about their experience, called Anyone Can Do It! She hopes it will help other young people to start their own businesses. She believes success is 1% idea and 99% hard work, but she says, "If you think you have the energy, then get out and follow your dream."
