9 T12 Read the text again and put the paragraphs (A-F) in the correct spaces (1-5). There is one extra paragraph. Listen and check.

A More companies followed the airline, some successful, others not, but all helped by Branson's obvious enthusiasm. Even when there is a failure, he doesn't let it bother him but moves on to the next venture.

B But has he always been so successful, and how did he start to amass such a fortune? As is so often the case, luck played a large part at the beginning.

C One reason for his continued success may be the enjoyment he gets from it all. One of his ten secrets for success is to 'have fun working', and it does seem that, whether records, planes or space travel, Richard Branson's businesses mirror his hobbies, which show a person who loves an adventure and has a desire to win against the odds.

D Such amazing successes have meant that Sir Richard has become one of the most famous businessmen in the United Kingdom. However, he isn't about to retire yet. Indeed it is unlikely that, with his energy and enthusiasm, retirement will ever be a consideration.

E However, at first, things were difficult, and two years later the business was in trouble. It was at this point that Branson needed something special to happen. That special thing came in the form of a record that had been rejected by all the major record labels.

F After ten years of concentrating on music, Richard Branson started looking at other ways of expanding his business into other fields. The first of these took off, literally, in 1984.
