Hometown Businessman
By Grace Morrison
April 5 - Unlike other entrepreneurs who expand their operations into different parts of the country, Miles’ Repair Shop owner Floyd Peterson is expanding right here in Montgomery. With two repair shops already established in the city and a third to open next month in Middleton City, Miles’ Repair Shop has become well known in the community. "I’m here whenever I need my car to be fixed." Hair Salon owner, Emily Gordon says."Floyd runs a friendly shop. He makes everyone feel like a family."
This is exactly the kind of compliment that Peterson loves to hear. Although he studied at Technical schools in Florida, Peterson attributes his success to his grandfather, Miles Peterson, for whom his stores are named. "He was the first one to teach me how to repair vehicles." "He said that my workplace would be a great place to meet our neighbors and I could find some ways to serve our communities." Peterson recalls.
Peterson makes a point of working at both of his grandfather’s current locations, personally overseeing the operations. However, he can appreciate that his growing business will make him delegate some responsibilities. So, next month, he will bring on long-time friend Ron Harris to his newest store.
His new repair shop will purchase many parts and supplies from local auto parts store. He says he considered opening his own auto parts store, but ultimately he decided against it. "Shifting into other areas will compromise the quality of our services, and I won’t let that happen."
What reason does Peterson give for NOT opening an auto parts store?
选项
A、It might have a negative impact on his business.
B、He cannot find a good person to manage the store.
C、There are too many auto parts stores.
D、He thinks it will be too expensive.
答案
A
解析
通过阅读可知道考虑到可能会降低服务质量。compromise不仅有妥协的意思,不要忘记还是weaken的同义词。
