As someone who grew up in the country，Zhang already knew about growing plants. However，like any entrepreneur who was just starting out，she still had a lot to learn.She has overcome a number of obstacles㉑ in nursing her business to the success it is today.“The biggest challenge at the initial phase㉒ was to persuade people to work for me，which was totally outside my experience.Few in the village believed I could create a multi­million yuan business from flowers，” says Zhang.“After I went on TV，a major Asian manufacturer of cosmetics was willing to purchase㉓ my product and help with its distribution㉔.It was only then that the locals began to believe me.Now my product is one of the best in Asia.This year，I can pay all my fellow workers a decent bonus㉕.” Seeing her peers who also dream of success and independence，Zhang has mixed feelings㉖.❸Though she welcomes the new entrepreneurial spirit，she advises that people be realistic and seek guidance㉗ from expert consultants㉘ before rushing into things㉙. “I love running my own business，but it's not for everyone，” says Zhang. “To succeed in business，you need more than㉚ a good idea，hard work and determination.❹What really matters is a sound business plan㉛，access to capital㉜，and good management and negotiating skills㉝.Most of all，don't be too ambitious.You should know your own limits and those of the people you work with.For young people who have little life experience，that can be a challenge.” [参考译文] 创业之花 发言时，张悦把手藏在背后，以掩饰双手的颤抖。但她无法掩饰从额头淌下的一行汗珠。这是因为电视演播室里有些热，但更多的则是由于她害怕坐在她面前的四个人。他们面无表情地凝视着她，让人根本看不出他们接下来会说什么。张悦感到一阵眩晕，她深吸一口气，然后努力完成她的陈述，“这就是为什么我需要你们的帮助，使我的全新的、激动人心的创业项目获得成功。” 张悦现在是自己公司的董事长，她喜欢说：“早起的鸟儿有虫吃。”她创业的地点在一个山谷里，一个远离任何电视演播室的世界。她小心地在黑暗中穿行，经过一排又一排的玫瑰植株。一小时后就会有许多人来到这里，在日出前快速采摘玫瑰花。“必须在那个时候采，”张悦说，“这些花是很娇嫩的。” 张悦以前从未想过自己会做这一行。从小到大，她的周围都是玫瑰，她却很少注意到它们。直到张悦结束海外留学生活，回国看望父母时，她才意识到这里的潜力。“这里的条件非常理想，”她说，“这里适合玫瑰自然生长。” 因此，张悦决定回到家乡，并种植玫瑰，这让很多人感到惊讶。“我想体验自己当老板的自由，”她说，“同时我也想回报我的家乡。有句话说得好：‘养育一个孩子需要整个村庄的力量。’” 她并不是唯一一个被创业吸引的年轻人。在世界各地，经济的不断增长创造了更多的机会，越来越多有事业心的年轻人开始考虑自己创业。像张悦一样，他们提出自己的想法，希望获得投资和建议。而且，他们也拥有同样的热情和奉献精神。他们中的大多数会遭到拒绝，但包括张悦在内的少数人会非常幸运地获得投资，并从更有经验的商界人士那里获得非常关键的投入和支持。不过他们的成功之路仍然漫长而艰难，一路上会遇到许多挑战。 作为一个在农村长大的人，张悦已经比较了解作物种植。不过，跟所有刚起步的企业家一样，她要学的还有很多。为了取得今天的成就，她精心打理生意，克服了许多障碍。“在初始阶段，最大的挑战就是说服人们来为我工作，这完全超出了我的经验范围。村里几乎没人相信我能从花卉生意中赚到几百万元，”张悦说，“我上了电视后，一家亚洲大型化妆品制造商表示愿意购买我的产品并且帮忙分销。直到那时，当地人才开始相信我。现在我提供的是亚洲最好的产品之一。今年，我可以给我所有的同事们发一笔可观的奖金了。” 看到同龄人也梦想着成功和独立，张悦的心情很复杂。尽管她希望看到新的创业精神的涌现，但她建议人们要现实一些，在仓促行事之前先寻求专业顾问的指导。 “我热爱经营自己的生意，但不是每个人都适合做这个，”张悦说，“要想在事业上取得成功，你需要的不仅仅是好的理念、勤奋和决心。真正重要的是一个合理的商业计划，获得资金的渠道，以及良好的管理和谈判技巧。最重要的是，野心不要太大。你得知道自己的极限，还有与你共事的人的极限。对于缺乏生活经验的年轻人来说，这可能是一个挑战。” [难词注解] ①blank adj.无表情的，木然的 ②clue n．线索，迹象 ③take a deep breath 深呼吸 ④struggle to do sth.努力做某事 ⑤presentation n．介绍，陈述，展示 ⑥be fond of 喜欢 ⑦row upon row 鳞次栉比的，一排排的 ⑧delicate adj.娇嫩的，脆弱的 ⑨end up 以……告终，最终处于…… ⑩potential n．(事物的)潜力，可能性 ⑪condition n．条件，状况 ⑫grow roses 种植玫瑰 ⑬raise v．抚养；养育 ⑭bug n．突然的兴趣，迷恋 ⑮enterprising adj.有创业精神的；有事业心的；有进取心的 ⑯present ideas 提出想法 ⑰in the hope of 怀着……的希望 ⑱devotion n．奉献 ⑲rejection n．拒绝 ⑳input n．投入(物) ㉑obstacle n．障碍，阻碍，妨碍 ㉒phase n．阶段，时期 the initial phase初始阶段 ㉓purchase v．购买 ㉔distribution n．(商品的)分销，经销 ㉕bonus n．奖金；红利 a decent bonus一笔可观的奖金 ㉖mixed feelings复杂的感情 ㉗guidance n．指导，引导 ㉘consultant n．顾问 ㉙rush into things 仓促行事 ㉚more than 不仅仅，超过 ㉛a sound business plan 一个完备的商业计划 ㉜access to capital 融资渠道 ㉝negotiating skills 谈判技巧 [难句分析] ❶现在分词短语作状语。 ❷本句为强调句。 ❸本句为主从复合句。Though引导让步状语从句；advises后的宾语从句用虚拟语气。 ❹本句中What引导主语从句；整个句子为主系表结构。 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 [文章架构] General situation of the company one of the best 1.rose products in Asia Reasons for starting a business ideal conditions for growing roses，experiencing the 2.freedom of being her own boss and giving something 3.back to her home town Challenges getting 4.investment and advice and persuading people to 5. work for her Advice for young entrepreneurs ·You need a good idea，hard work，6.determination，a sound business plan，7.access_to_capital，good management and negotiating skills. ·Don't be too 8.ambitious.
