When I opened the first ‘Body Shop’ in 1976 my only object was to earn enough to feed
my children . Today ‘The Body Shop’ is an international company rapidly growing all around
the world . In the years since we began I have learned a lot. Much of what I have learned will
be found in this book, for I believe that we, as a company, have something worth saying about
how to run a successful business without giving up what we really believe in.
It’s not a normal business book, nor it is just about my life. The message is that to succeed in
business you have to be different . Business can be fun, a business can be run with love and it
can do good. In business, as in life, I need to enjoy myself, to have a feeling of family and to
feel excited by the unexpected. I have always wanted the people who work for ‘ The Body
Shop’ to feel the same way.
Now this book sends these ideas of mine out into the world, makes them public. I’d like to
think there are no limits to our ‘family’, no limits to what can be done. I find that an exciting
thought. I hope you do, too.
21. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this text ?
A. to explain how international companies operate
B. to introduce her ideas to the reader
C. to tell the reader her life story
D. to tell the reader how she brought up a family
22. What would someone learn from this text ?
A. what the writer’s family is like
B. how to write a book about business
C. how to make a lot of money
D. what the writer’s book is about
23. How does the writer feel about the business she runs ?
A. It is not like any other company.
B. She just runs it for her own entertainment.
C. She doesn’t care about success if her children are fed.
D. It is likely to become even more successful.
24. What kind of workers does the writer like to employ ?
A. workers who have the same attitudes as she does
B. workers who get on well with the public
C. workers who can explain her ideas

- D. workers who have their own families
25. What kind of person does the writer seem to be ?

B. She doesn’t seem to be very confident.
