| At five he was collecting old newspapers to make money.And when he was fifteen he signed his schoolmates up to start a baby-sitting circle(保姆中心). Now 20,third- year Cambridge University student,Peter Blackburn is the managing director of company with a 30,000 pounds plan.And he thinks he will make more than $15,000 by next summer. He set up Peter Blackburn Company last year to bring out a new color term-planner(学期计划)that now students all over the UK are using. “I felt that most of the planners going around were pretty unimaginative,”he says.”I believed that I could do a better job and decided to have a go.” Blackburn agrees that he is putting far more effort into business than his computer studies course at university.While fellow students are out with their friends,he keeps in touch with his business office in Lancashire by mobile phone.Before he set up the company he spent one holiday preparing a plan that would persuade the bank to lend him money. “Most students work hard for a good degree because they believe that will help them get a job to support themselves,”he says.”I work hard at my company,because that is what will support me next year,after I leave college.” Friends believe that Blackburn will make one million pounds within five years. He is not quite so sure,however.”There is a lot to be done yet,”he says. 小题1:When he was quite young,Blackburn______.
a.He spent his holiday preparing a plan. b.He collected newspapers. c.He set up his own company. d.He asked the bank for money e.He set up a baby-sitting circle
