Question

英语阅读理解
When I was a teenager, my dad did everything he could do to advise me against becoming a brewer(造酒人). He’d spent his life brewing beer for local breweries only to make a living, so had his father and grandfather before him. He didn’t want me anywhere near a vat(酿酒用的桶)of beer. So I did as he asked. I got good grades, went to Harvard and in 1971 was accepted into a graduate program there that allowed me to study law and business at the same time.
In my second year of graduate school, I began to realize that I’d never done anything but go to school. So,I decided to drop out. Obviously, my parents didn’t think this was a great idea. But I felt strongly that you can’t wait till you’re to do what you want in life.
I packed my stuff into a bus and headed for Colorado to become an instructor at Outward Bound. Three years later, I was ready to go back to school. I finished Harvard and got a highly-paid job at the Boston Consulting Group Still, after working there five years, I wondered, “Is this what I want to be doing when I’m 50?” At that time, Americans spent good money on beer in low quality. Why not make good beer for Americans? I thought.
I decided to give up my job to become a brewer. When I told Dad, he was astonished, but in the end he supported me. I called my beer Samuel Adams, after the brewer and patriot(爱国者) who helped to start the Boston Tea Party. Also I sold the beer direct to beer drinkers to get the name out. Six weeks later, at the Great American Beer Festival, Sam Adams Boston Lager（淡啤酒） won the top prize for American beer. In the end I was destined(注定) to be a brewer. My advice to the young is simple: Life is very long, so don’t rush to make decisions. Life doesn’t let you plan.
