Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. The team paid him only $ 15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete (运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.
In 1912，when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S. Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events，including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events，with running, jumping ,and throwing contests.
People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”

The next day was Saturday. He knew that most of the boys would be down on the playground and choose up sides for the Saturday game. Robert knew he could play well and that just might be enough to prove he was strong, and to make friends with them. He arrived early and did his step exercises. He shot the ball several times and did some other exercises—the most difficult and most wonderful in basketball. Then the boys came. Robert went through what he had done before the game and showed what he could do. No one said a word. The boys just looked at each other and thought about it.

During his freshman year summer vacation, his classmate got him a job working on a hay (干草) farm. He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields, and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn. It was a hot，lowpaying job.
He once worked a few nights a week at a grocery store. He put things on the shelf. It was a lot of lifting and carrying，and his arms were strong from this and the previous job. It was dull and didn’t pay much.
He took some time off when soccer got serious，but the following summer he tried working at a lumber yard. It was hot outside, but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and drywall. He also learned a lot about building supplies. It still didn’t pay well.
From there, he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family, but that was piecemeal. His first real job came the last year at school, when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store. It was his favorite job yet, but it still didn’t pay well.
What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job! The only way to get that was to get trained or educated. He could go to school and get a 2year degree in an office or technical position. His other choices were going to a 4year college or joining the army. He wasn’t sure what he was going to do yet, but he knew he had to do something. Jobs were a lot of work, money was hard to earn，but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things. Peter wanted the most out of life, and that meant education.

Silent Listening
If something bad just happened (happen) to your friend, what would you do？ Would you mention it to him and say you feel sorry about it？ Would you offer support or advice？ According to Ruth Clark, such 41 (treat) could mean well, but it might not be what he 42 (real) wants or needs.
Clark asked some college students to imagine some 43 (pleasant) situations, e.g., a low exam grade or the dad’s 44 (lose) of his job.The students were then 45 (ask) how they would like to be treated by a friend who learned of the bad situation from someone else.The results were a little 46 (surprise).Some said they would want and expect their friend to mention the 47 (annoy) situation, but most of the students in the study 48 (respond) that they would like the friend not to do it.The students made the 49 (decide) for themselves whether to discuss their problem with a friend.So, there is value in being a silent 50 (listen) around a troubled friend.
years his fee income was in excess of ￡100K a year and he had nearly 100 clients most of whom had been gained
through word of mouth. David recognised that these small or micro businesses, typically employing ten or fewer
people, were receiving less than satisfactory service from their current accountants. These accounting firms typically
had between five and ten partners and operated regionally and not nationally. Evidence of poor service included
limited access to their particular accountant, poor response time to clients’ enquiries and failure to identify
opportunities to save clients money. In addition bad advice, lack of interest in business development opportunities for
the client and poor internal communication between the partners and their staff contributed to client dissatisfaction.
David has deliberately kept the costs of the business down by employing three part-time accountants and relying on
his wife to run the office.
David had recently met Ian King who ran a similar sized accounting firm. The personal chemistry between the two
and complementary skills led to a partnership being proposed. Gould and King Associates, subject to securing the
necessary funding, is to be launched in September 2006. David is to focus on the business development side of the
partnership and Ian on the core services provided. Indicative of their creative thinking is David’s conviction that
accounting services are promoted very inadequately with little attempt to communicate with clients using the Internet.
He is also convinced that there are real opportunities for the partnership to move into new areas such as providing
accountancy services for property developers, both at home and abroad. Ian feels that the partnership should set up
its own subsidiary in India, enjoying the benefits of much cheaper accountancy staff and avoiding the costs and
complications of outsourcing their core accounting services. Ian sees fee income growing to ￡2 million in five years’
time.
David has been asked by his bank to provide it with a business plan setting out how the partnership intends to grow
and develop.
Required:
(a) Write a short report for David giving the key features that you consider to be important and that you would
expect to see in the business plan for the Gould and King partnership that David has to present to his bank.
