thousands of books were sold for scrap when students graduated from college.I decided to open a second-hand bookstore on my university website.I advertised on the university website and the bulletin board to attract those who have books to sell and those who want to buy books cheaply.At first I only dealt with textbooks,then,I expanded to fictions,biographies and more.Last year I reaped a profit of 10,000 yuan,which was a notable sum considering the fact that I was only a second-year student in the university.Currently I have one employee who helps with the delivery.I am thinking of expanding to other second-hand items and employ more people.The current value of my company is about 100,000 yuan.As for my personal value,it is invaluable.Lose-W Ltd Lose- is a successful company that sells special shoes that make you lose weight by just wearing them.The idea come to a university student,when he added weight to his running shoes to burn more calories while jogging.He patented the idea in 2005 and started selling the shoes to his friends and relatives in Switzerland.The following year,he started taking orders from all over the world,thanks to the excellent website he set up.AssignmentPrepare new words and expressions for next week(see Wordlist 3.2)
