问题      Got a pen handy? To best estimate your startup costs, you’ll need to make a list and the more detailed the better. A smart way to start is to 【C1】______  everything you’ll need, from 【C2】______  goods (such as inventory, equipment and fixtures) to professional services (such as remodeling, advertising and legal work). Then, start 【C3】______  how much you’ll need to pay for all those goods and services.
   Some of the expenses 【C4】______  during the startup phase will be one-time costs, such as the fee for printing 【C5】______  your brochures, creating your LLC or acquiring a permit, while others will be 【C6】______  , such as rent, insurance or employees’ salaries. In 【C7】______  , it’s best to use a two-step process. First, 【C8】______  an estimate of one-time costs needed to get your doors open, and then develop an operating 【C9】______  for the first six months or even the first year of the business.
    【C10】______  you’re still having trouble figuring out how much money you need, do 【C11】______  on other companies in your industry and region of the country. Talk to their owners about 【C12】______  they figured out start-up costs and ask 【C13】______  about expenses they forgot. The SBA offers free 【C14】______  through its Small Business Development Centers and its 【C15】______  , SCORE. You can also seek advice from an accountant or attorney 【C16】______  dealing with small businesses.
   When in doubt about your projections, you should always 【C17】______  on the side of overestimating your up-front investment cost and 【C18】______  sales. Eric van Merkensteijn, a University of Pennsylvania business professor who left 【C19】______  in the late 1990s to open a restaurant in Philadelphia, offers this advice: Figure out your start-up costs, then double that number. Then double it again. Only then will you have a(n) 【C20】______  number, says the professor, who closed the business in 2004 and returned to campus.  [br] 【C10】

选项 A、Despite
B、Although
C、If
D、So

答案 C

解析 逻辑衔接题。分析句子逻辑关系,此处意思是“(前面的方法)仍然难以计算出所需资金”,后半句表示采取的另外一种方法。前两段介绍了计算创业成本的基本步骤,可见本段则是对创业者提出的另一种建议就是咨询其他公司,因此用C)If,引导条件状语从句。A)Despite后面常用名词或者名词短语,不跟句子;B)Although引导让步状语从句;D)So引导结果状语从句,都不符合句子逻辑关系,故排除。
