Module 6 Animals in Danger
Ⅰ.完形填空
With the help of Gloria, his wife, Tom Peterson worked for many years to build a solid business selling television sets, stereo systems, and home appliances. Tom developed an excellent _1.B__ with their full satisfaction guarantee and friendly service. He was proud of his high percentage of repeat _2.A__.
About five years ago, Tom was _3.C__ by the owners of a competing company, Stereo Super Stores. They wanted him to _4.C__ them out. The price was very attractive. Everything looked good. Before making his final _5.A__ Tom asked Gloria what she thought about the purchase. She told him that _6.C__ the numbers looked good it didnt feel _7.C__ to her. However, Tom was so self-confident and so convinced that this was a rare _8.D__, he went ahead and made the _9.B__. Within months he discovered that he had made a big _10.D__. He had paid too much for a _11.A__ company. He tried as hard as he could to make it work out, but he couldnt turn things _12.B__. He was forced into bankruptcy (破产). He was about to lose everything, including his _13.A__ business.
Tom was embarrassed, but he is a survivor. He looked at his situation. He decided to _14.C__ admit his mistake and, rather than getting stuck in lawsuits (诉讼), he would focus his _15.D__ on saving and rebuilding his original business. He saw also that he had made a mistake by not listening to his _16.B__, and that he needed to learn from this _17.A__. He dealt with the crisis in a way that delighted people, who in turn _18.B__ respect for him. Old customers poured into his store. He and Gloria _19.B__ to changes in retailing (零售) and have built an even better business than before.
In the business world, it is natural to gain and lose, of _20.D__ Petersons experience is an example. Only those who regard their mistakes as gifts and learn from them attract endless profits.
