(第23-30题,每题1分,共8分)Interview with Allan Gray1 I was working for a multinational company in the early 1980s, and my brother asked me if I was interested in going into partnership with him to set up a language school. I’d always wanted to work for myself, and I was a bit fed up with working for someone else, so I said yes. Primarily, I wanted the freedom to make my own decisions, I wanted room to be creative, and also I wanted to be able to get the credit and keep the profits if things went wrong. These things are not possible if you work as an employee in a large organization.2 I had to borrow money to help start the business, but we were lucky because we also had some outside capital to put into the business. These days it can be really hard to persuade banks to lend money to people who want to start a company, so we were fortune. It was fairly easy to set up the business, because we had a very clear idea of what we wanted to do. The problem was, all our preconception(预想)about what it would be like to run a business were wrong. We made lots of mistakes, and we almost went bankrupt(破产的`) at the beginning .At one point, we only had two students in the school.3 Far too long! We lost money for the first four years and, asI was saying, we nearly went out of business. It took quite a longtime to start making profit. The best thing we did,through. was that we hired some really good people to work for us. In fact, some of those people are still working for us, 24 years later. Now we’re doing well, but it was very risky at first.4 One is financial constrain(约束). It can be very tough. I think all small business have cashflow problems—it often takes a long time to get paid by your customers. The second big problem is marketing. It takes a lot of funds to market your business, and you have to get your name known and build a reputation. But the biggest challenge is managing the people. All businesses are about people, and you have to learn how to deal with all kinds of people-and I think we’ve been extremely good at getting the best of our staff.23.Paragraph 1_____A.Strategies in expanding a small businessB.Right people to run a businessC.Time-consuming experience of being successfulD.Challenges of running a businessE.Difficulties in starting the businessF.Reasons for working for oneself【答案】F24.Paragraph 2_____A.Strategies in expanding a small businessB.Right people to run a businessC.Time-consuming experience of being successfulD.Challenges of running a businessE.Difficulties in starting the businessF.Reasons for working for oneself【答案】E25.Paragraph 3_____A.Strategies in expanding a small businessB.Right people to run a businessC.Time-consuming experience of being successfulD.Challenges of running a businessE.Difficulties in starting the businessF.Reasons for working for oneself【答案】C26.Paragraph 4_____A.Strategies in expanding a small businessB.Right people to run a businessC.Time-consuming experience of being successfulD.Challenges of running a businessE.Difficulties in starting the businessF.Reasons for working for oneself【答案】D27.If you made a bad decision as a boss, you had_____.A.to lose your houseB.to manage your employeesC.to keep independentD.to lend you moneyE.to take the responsibility for itF.to make profit【答案】E28.The difficult thing to start a business is to persuade banks_____.A.to lose your houseB.to manage your employeesC.to keep independentD.to lend you moneyE.to take the responsibility for itF.to make profit【答案】D29.If you hire the right people, you'll probably be able_____.A.to lose your houseB.to manage your employeesC.to keep independentD.to lend you moneyE.to take the responsibility for itF.to make profit【答案】F30.Besides financial and marketing challenges, you must know how_____.A.to lose your houseB.to manage your employeesC.to keep independentD.to lend you moneyE.to take the responsibility for itF.to make profit【答案】B四、阅读理解下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题。
