Conrad Hilton really wanted to be a banker. Instead, he successfully changed the【C1】______ purchase of a Texas low-end hotel into a multimillion-dollar hotel empire that earned him the【C2】______ "innkeeper to the world."
Born in New Mexico in 1887, Hilton was 19 when his parents began renting out rooms in their home.

And in 1949, he bought the "greatest of them all": New York City’s magnificent Waldorf-Astoria.

Even modern hotel-reservations systems【C9】______ from one Hilton which was established in 1948.
