Don't you have anything better?" I asked. Fifteen minutes later I got the job. When I asked why they accepted me when millions would have done the job for free, the answer was “Thats just the proble.” Yes. I owed the job to the fact that I was not a crazy fan.But of course I was a fan. It was difficult not to be. I worked over the winter holiday in 1968 and also during Easter 1969. I had to take a taxi in the days to deliver papers sealed in envelopes to the Beatles house. I took the envelopes to the address, handed them over to whoever answered the door and lift. Who would entrust（委托）such papers to an unknown student today the envelopes would be opened and the contents of the papers copied and sold to the Press, I t never occurred to me to do that. Much has been lost in 40 years!I am always asked how many autographs（签名） I collected, and the answer is none. How uncool would it have been to ask for an autograph? Far better just to hear the Beatles s greets“Hi, boy.” Hows it going?”More than 40 years later, this remains the best job I have ever had. It met my immediate material need and provides a memory that can be my life treasure. For a child of the 60s, this was its peak. If some details of the memory are not so fresh, its because they werent important then. At 19, you take man you things that happen for granted. At 61, they become gold dust. If I had known that then, I would have kept a diary.41The author when he came home according to the first paragraph.

BChildren will find it more difficult to buy cigarettes as vending machines(自动售货机)selling tobacco will be officially banned in England todayAccording to the British Heart Foundation(BHF)，around 200，000 young people start smoking regularly in England each year and 11 per cent of l1-to-15-year-old regular smokers in England and Wales get their cigarettes from vending machines. Betty McBride, Director of Policy and Communications at the British Heart Foundation，said，“Thousands of children who are at risk of addiction regularly get tobacco from these machines，which of course，dont ask them to prove their ageWith the tobacco industry increasingly depending on young smokers to keep their profits，theyre fighting tooth and nail to stop any changes that might hit their bottom line” Other measures to protect young people from the dangers of smoking are also on the wayIn April 2013 large retailers(零售商)in England and Scotland will have to get rid of all tobacco displays and small shops will be expected to do that from April 2015Wales and Northern Ireland also plan to make similar regulations The UK Government is due to begin a public consultation before the end of the year on whether to introduce plain packaging for cigarettes which would reduce their marketing appeal to young people，help to make health warnings more effective and，alongside other measures，help to reduce the number of smokers in the long term46According to the text，vending machines selling cigarettes .
