Read the first activity read the extract and do all the activities.
A1) read the statements given below and find out whether the following statement are true or false.
i) in High School Michael had a job selling newspaper subscriptions.
ii) at the age of 29 Dell bought an expensive BMW car.
iii) she bought his first computer by selling stamps.
vi) like most post your student he didn't like earn money.
A few years later Michael had another good idea, to trade stamps by advertising in stamp magazines. With the $2000 he made, he bought his first personal computer. Then he took it apart to figure out how it worked.
In high school Michael had a job selling newspaper subscriptions. Newlyweds, he figured, were the best prospects, so he hired friends to copy the names and addresses of recent recipients of marriage licences. These he entered into his computer, then sent a personalized letter offering each couple a free two-week subscription.
This time Dell made $18,000and bought an expensive BMW car. The car salesman was flabbergast when the 17- year-old paid cash.
The next year Dell enrolled at the University of Texas. Like most first-year students, he needed to earn spending money. Just about everyone on campus was talking about personal computers. At the time, anyone who didn’t have a PC wanted one, but dealers were selling them at a hefty mark-up. People wanted low-cost machines custom-made to their needs, and these were not readily available. Why should dealers get such a big mark-up f or so little added value? Dell wondered. Why not sell from the manufacturer directly to the end user?
