What does the company CyberEdit aim to do?
In this section, you will hear a monologue. The monologue will be read twice. After the monologue, there will be a one-minute pause. During the pause, read the questions and the four choices marked A , B, C and D, and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the centre.
(M)I’m Mark. Most students in America take part-time jobs to help to pay for their studies. I didn’t plan to do this because I don’t enjoy working for other people. I started my own company, CyberEdit, when I was 19. Most students have to write essays, and I aimed to provide computer editing services for them. During one summer vacation, I worked for an Internet company and in the evening, I spent another four hours working on my website. After that summer, my company grew by about 400% , earning me $ 40, 000 in the first year.
It’s not easy to develop a business. If you hope to be financially independent, you must do something while you are young and you can work long hours. For a long time, I was editing between five and ten documents a night. I spent fifty hours a week doing this. It was hard. Then I hired my first four employees.
The next year, I turned down a summer job at a big New York investment bank and spent the vacation expanding CyberEdit. In December, Wired magazine contacted me and asked me to write an article about my life. After the article appeared in March, interested investors began emailing me. In June, one of the people who had emailed me decided to invest a large sum of money in the company. So...the Wired article brought me over a million dollars in funding!
More than anything else, good publicity helps a new business attract investors and customers. A successful teenage entrepreneur is an interesting story, so getting publicity and funding for the business was easier because of my age. Investors came to me, not because I was making money and employing fifty people from college, but because they read about it in Wired magazine, and saw it on ABC World News Tonight.
My advice to young people who consider starting a company is always the same: Do it now! Don’t delay starting it until you’ve finished school or had some "real-world experience".
选项
A、Provide computer editing services for students.

C、Edit documents for Wired magazine.
D、Supply funding for businesses.
答案
A
解析
录音中提到Mark在十九岁的时候创建了CyberEdit,接着后面Mark提到“I aimed toprovide computer editing services for them.”,由此可知CyberEdit致力于为学生提供电脑编辑服务,因此A为正确选项。
