  Carolyn Stradley is the founder of C&S Paving Inc.(铺路公司)in Atlanta, USA.In the following account, she recalls the job that challenged her   1   and skill but left her flying high.“When the Atlanta Airport was under construction in 1979, we were a new company struggling to make it.National Car Rental wanted to have 2,500 square meters of dirt paved   2   the cars could be on site when the airport opened, and the official opening was only ten days away!No other local paving company wanted to do the job,   3   it couldn't be done in such a short time.

  “Because we were new and really needed the work, we were   4   to try harder.We gave National Car Rental our offer and promised our best effort to get the job finished within ten days.We also   5   them that if we failed, they would be no worse off, but they had plenty to gain if we succeeded.

  “We got the job and immediately went into   6  .Working at night needed lights, so I rented a machine to produce electricity for the site.Our   7   challenge was to keep the rock mixture   8   enough.All the available water wagons(洒水车)were rented out for the airport construction, and we certainly couldn't afford to buy a new one.Instead , I got a special   9   to rent fire engine hoses(消防水龙带)and connect them to nearby hydrants(消防栓); then I   10   held one of those hoses to water down the rock.

  “Those ten days were filled with challenges that   11   one creative idea after another.Nine days later, the night before the airport opened, National Car Rental was the   12   company that had cars on the parking lot.

  “The key to our success was having the courage to take on any job and then being creative in our approach to getting it done.”
