Business Blossoms As she spoke， Zhang Yue put her hands behind her back to hide that they were shaking.She couldn’t， however， hide the line of sweat running down her forehead， which was caused partly by the heat of the television studio， but more by fear of the four people seated in front of her.They stared back， their blank① faces giving no clue② as to what they would say next.[1]  Feeling dizzy， Zhang Yue took a deep breath③ as she struggled to finish④ her presentation⑤， “And that is why I need your help in turning my new and exciting business into a successful one.” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） Now chairwoman of her own company， Zhang Yue is fond of⑥ saying， “The early bird catches the worm.” The place where this happens is a valley， a world away from any television studio.Moving carefully through the darkness， she passes row upon row⑦ of rose plants.In an hour， these fields will be full of people， working quickly to pick the flowers before sunrise.“It has to be done then，” says Zhang.“These flowers are delicate⑧.” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　Zhang never thought that this was something she would end up⑨ doing.Surrounded by roses as she was growing up， she paid them little attention.[2]  It was only after graduating from university overseas and returning to visit her parents that Zhang realised the potential⑩. “Conditions⑪ are ideal⑫ here，” she says.“This is a place where roses grow wild.” 　　[1]动词-ing短语作状语。 　　[2]本句为强调句，强调的句子成分为时间状语。 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 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

her home town and grow roses， which surprised many people.“I wanted to experience the freedom of being my own boss，” she said.“But I also wanted to give something back to my home town.As people say， ‘It takes a village to raise⑬ a child.’” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） She is not the only young person to have been bitten by the start-up bug⑭.All over the world， an increasing number of enterprising⑮ young people are thinking of starting their own businesses， as the growing economy creates more opportunities.Like Zhang， they present their ideas ⑯ in the hope of⑰ getting investment and advice， and they have the same passion and devotion⑱.The majority meet with rejection⑲.A few， like Zhang Yue， find themselves lucky enough to get investment and the all- important input⑳ and support from more experienced business people.The road to their success is however still a long and difficult one， with many challenges along the way. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 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 multi-million yuan business from flowers，” says Zhang.“After I went on TV， a major Asian manufacturer of cosmetics was willing to purchase ㉓ 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.” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　Seeing her peers who also dream of success and independence， Zhang has mixed feelings㉖.[3]  Though she welcomes the new entrepreneurial spirit， she advises that people be realistic and seek guidance㉗ from expert consultants㉘ before rushing into things㉙. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　“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.[4]  What really matters is a sound㉛ business plan， 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.” 　　[3]本句为主从复合句。Though引导让步状语从句；advises后的 宾语从句使用了虚拟语气。 [4]本句中What引导主语从句；整个句子为“主系表”结构。 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） ⑬raise

从额头淌下的一行汗水，这一部分是由于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，做了 个深呼吸，然后努力完成她的陈述，“这就是为什么我需要你们的帮 助，使这个全新的、激动人心的创业项目获得成功。” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 张悦现在是自己公司的总裁，她总喜欢说：“早起的鸟儿有虫吃。”她创业的地点在一个山谷里，这是一个完全不同于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，趁着日出前的时间快速采摘玫瑰花。“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。她从小到大，到处都是玫瑰，她很少注意到它们。直到她结束海外留学生活，回国看望父母时，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，开始种植玫瑰，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。’” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　她并不是唯一一个被创业所吸引的年轻人。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，他们表达自己的想法，希望以此获得投资和建 议。而且，他们也拥有同样的热情和为事业奉献的决心。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。 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　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。直到那时本地人才开始相信我。现在我提供的是亚洲最好的产品 之一。今年，我可以给我的同事们发一笔丰厚的奖金了。” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 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，但她也建议他们要现实一些，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，不要野心太大。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 可能是个挑战。” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY）

But when it was time to go to college and decide what I wanted to be for the rest of my life， it didn’t occur to me to choose drama as my major. Making a living as a performer seemed impractical to me. So instead of starting drama， I started pre-law， and then went to law school like my two sisters did before me. They seemed happy enough， I thought； they worked about 80 hours a week， but they made good money and could afford expensive cars and fancy apartments in the city. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　After law school I got a new job and worked as a lawyer for a big company. I had great benefits， including four weeks of vacation a year， but I never got to use any of my vacation time because there was always too much work to do. I worked from 7 am to 9 pm six days a week， and when I was finished， all I could do was collapse into my bed until I woke up to do it all over again the next day. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　After five years of this lifestyle， I thought I was going to go crazy. I was unhappy and exhausted， I never saw my friends or my family， and I realized I hadn’t been in a play or musical since I started law school. I thought that acting in a small community play might make me feel better， but rehearsals and performances all took place during my work hours so I made a drastic decision and quit my job. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　I got a small part in a local play and then the lead role. Now I make my living from acting， and once in a while， I do some legal consulting for a little extra money. I don’t get paid a lot for my acting jobs， but it’s enough. I had to give up my big apartment and expensive car， but I’m so much happier now. I see my friends and family， I have free time， and I get to do something I love every day. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者因为律师的工 资高而选择这个职业，但是后来他发现这个职业花费了他大量的时 间和精力，他并不快乐。后来，他辞职去做演员，做自己想做的事 让作者感到自由快乐。 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者因为律师的工 资高而选择这个职业，但是后来他发现这个职业花费了他大量的时 间和精力，他并不快乐。后来，他辞职去做演员，做自己想做的事 让作者感到自由快乐。 1. Why did the writer go to law school？（　　） A. Because his two sisters went to law school. B. Because he was interested in the practice of law. C. Because a lawyer’s job would bring him a decent and leisure life. D. Because acting jobs were not well-paid enough to earn a living. √ 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 解析： 　细节理解题。根据第一段可知，作者觉得以表演为生对他 来说似乎不切实际，所以选择了法律预科。由此可知，作者上法学院 是因为当演员挣的钱不足以维持生计。 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 2. After five years practicing law， what is the writer’s feeling about the work of a lawyer？（　　） A. Happy. B. Enjoyable. C. Exhausting. D. Relaxing. 解析： 　细节理解题。根据第三段前两句可知，作者做了五年律师 之后，感觉很疲惫。 √ 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 3. What is the real reason why the writer quit his job as a lawyer？（　　） A. He thought the work consumed almost all his time and energy. B. He didn’t have great benefits. C. He hated working and wanted a break. D. He preferred to make a change. √ 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 解析： 　推理判断题。根据第三段中的I never saw my friends or my family和so I made a drastic decision and quit my job可知，律师的工作花 费了作者大量的时间，他很少有时间陪伴家人和朋友。由此推断，作 者决定辞去律师的工作是因为工作消耗了他几乎所有的时间和精力。 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 4. What’s the main purpose of the passage？（　　） A. To inform us that the writer quit his job. B. To show us how boring it is to be a lawyer. C. To tell the writer’s story of making a living as an actor. D. To share with us the change of the writer’s lifestyle and the reason. √ 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 解析： 　推理判断题。通读全文可知，作者前后描述了两种生活方 式。第二、三段描述了他当律师时的情况，是第一种生活方式，尽管 挣了很多钱，但是没有太多的私人时间，他并不快乐；最后一段描述 了作者当演员时的情况，是第二种生活方式，尽管挣不了太多钱，但 是他有可支配的时间，能够陪伴家人和朋友。由此推断，作者写这篇 文章的目的是与我们分享其生活方式的变化及原因。 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） B 　　（2025·山西晋中高二下期末）Companies may unintentionally hurt their sales by including the words “artificial intelligence （AI）” when describing their offerings that use the technology， according to a study led by Washington State University researchers. In the study， published in the Journal of Hospitality Marketing & Management， researchers conducted experimental surveys with more than 1，000 adults in the US to evaluate （评估） the relationship between AI inclusion and consumer behavior. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　The findings consistently showed products described as using AI were less popular， according to Mesut Cicek， clinical assistant professor of marketing and lead author of the study. “When AI is mentioned， it tends to lower emotional trust， which in turn reduces purchase intentions，” he said. “We found emotional trust plays a critical role in how consumers view AI-powered products.” 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　In the experiments， the researchers included questions and descriptions across diverse products and service categories. For example， in one experiment， participants were presented with similar descriptions of smart televisions. The only difference was that the term AI was included for one group and omitted for the other. The group that saw AI included in the product description indicated they were less likely to purchase the television. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　Researchers also discovered that negative response to AI inclusion was even stronger for “high-risk” products and services， those which people commonly feel more uncertain or anxious about buying， such as expensive electronics， medical devices or financial services. Because failure carries more risk， which may include money loss or danger to physical safety， mentioning AI for these types of descriptions may make consumers more careful and less likely to purchase， according to Cicek. “We tested the effect across eight different products and service categories， and the results were all the same，” Cicek said. 目 录 英语·选择性必修第四册（WY） 　　Cicek said the findings provide valuable insights for companies. “Marketers should carefully consider how they present AI in their product descriptions or develop strategies to increase emotional trust.
