He ______ （have) little chance of getting the job unless he is the only one to apply for t

Tiny though it is, it has got all the comforts. Peter Baynes, Chan’s architect (建筑师),has achieved a clever piece of design,according to architectural experts.

The Chan mini-house was built on what was once a path down the side of a big Victarian house. Not an inch of space is wasted.

When you step in through the front door, you're standing in the shower, on Britain' s only self-cleansing doormat (自动清洁门垫). A door opens on to an equally tiny toilet with washbasin. Two steps further in comes the kitchen, complete with full-sized cooker and fridge, and washer/ drier. A worktop folds down from the wall.

Another step and you're into the dining/ office area. Four people can sit here for dinner, says Chan as he sets the table-top into place. He even has a fold-down drawing-board for when he' s working at home. The bed is hidden under a cover board right at the back. "I don't even have to make the bed,"Chan says. " I just put the cover down. "

Chan's business suits hang neatly on the wall over the bed. Daylight comes in through the skylight. The house feels like a very small boat and Chan admits he toyed with the idea of naming it the "boat-house".

"It cost around ￡4,700 to build last year. Now it's been valued at ￡30,000. It proves that good design doesn't need to cost more. It just needs a lot of care." says Chan.

By saying "It's not much" (line 1, para. 1),the author means that Chan' s flat______.

A．is cheap

B．has cheap furniture

C．has a simple design

D．is fairly small

Jackie Chan is a world-famous film star. He hopes to use his name in doing his business well. Now his business covers almost everything from clothing to food.

"I thought since I could make films, I could do business on my own, too. But I didn't know how to calculate (计算) , how much things I bought cost, how much a month's rent (租金) cost... So I lost (损失) several million, then millions again, " he once told reporters. "Now I have asked some businessmen to help me. "

For now, Chan is still making the most of his money by making films. He is using the money made from business to help others, such as the poor and those children who have no money to go to school.
