　　Interview with Allan Gray

(1)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 we were successful. I was also happy to carry the can and take the blame 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 fortunate. 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 preconceptions ( 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, as I was saying, we nearly went out of business. It took quite a long time to start making profit. The best thing we did, though, 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 constraint ( 约束) , It can be very tough. Think all small businesses have cash flow 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.

　　答案与解析

23.F。题干：第一段的主要内容是__________。第一段没有明显的主题句，主要论述了自己为什么想要为自己而工作，诸如做决定的自由、创新的`空间、获得赞扬以及获得利润等，所以F(为自己而工作的原因)是正确答案。

24.E。题干：第二段的主要内容是__________。第二段没有明显的主题句，主要讨论了开始做生意面临的资金问题以及所犯的错误，故E(生意起步时遇到的困难)是正确答案，其中start a business是关键词。

25.C。题干：第三段的主要内容是__________。第三段的主题句为首句，即要花费很长的时间，后面的句子提到他们花了很长时间之后才开始盈利，故C(成功所需的耗费时间的经历)是正确答案。

26.D。题干：第四段的主要内容是__________。第四段没有明显的主题句，从one，the secondbig problem以及the biggest challenge等词可知本段主要描述了做生意过程中遇到的一些问题和挑战，故D(做生意面临的挑战)是正确答案。

27.E。题干：如果作为老板你做了错误的决定，那么你将不得不__________。按照出题顺序与段落顺序一致的原则，利用make a bad decision可以定位到第一段的倒数第二句“I was also happy to carry the can and take the blame ifthings went wrong”，意为“如果事情出错了，我也乐意承担责任和过失”，所以答案为E(自己负责)，其中carry the can为固定短语，意为“代人受过，负责任”，take the blame意为“负责任，担不是”，与选项中的take responsibility for(承担责任)为近义词。

28.D。题干：生意起步的困难就是说服银行__________。利用题干关键词start a business与persuade bank可以定位到第二段第二句，可知对那些想要开公司的人而言，说服银行借钱给他们是很困难的，所以该题答案为D(借给你钱)。

29.F。题干：如果你雇佣到了适合的人，那么你就能__________。利用题干关键词right people可以定位到第三段，可知他们花了很长时问才开始盈利，这其中最棒的事情就是他们雇佣到了合适的人，所以答案为F(盈利)。

30.B。题干：除了财务和营销的挑战，你必须懂得如何__________。利用题干关键词financial和marketing可以定位到最后一段，其中提到了三个问题，财务问题、营销问题以及管理员工的问题，结合语境可知B(管理员工)是正确答案。
