With fewer choices in the job market and no opportunity in the stock market, people will naturally start to consider a business launch. Just 15 years ago, that meant renting office space or a storefront. Not any more. A home-based business is perfectly respectable now. Its even coveted.The home business is accurately perceived as offering more personal freedom than the out-of-home launch that comes with the strings of large capital investment and staff management. We can thank the last major down cycle for taking the stigma out of home enterprises. The early-to-mid 1980s saw corporations laying off white-collar workers for the first time. In earlier down cycles, white-collar workers were immune to layoffs as companies trimmed blue-collar manufacturing jobs. The laid-off white-collar workers became consultants and worked from home.Suddenly the home enterprise was legitimate. Running a company from your spare bedroom no longer meant you spent your day holding Mary Kay and Tupperware parties. The Internet increased the allure of the home-based start-up. Most shoestring e-biz companies begin in the home, whether the company trades in products or services. For a small Net-based business, there is little reason to rent offices. Besides, statistics from the Small Business Administration (SBA) strongly suggest your odds for success are greater if you launch from home. The SBA has found that 52 to 55 percent of all businesses are no longer active after five years.For those companies launched and grown in the home, the failure rate is 45 to 48 percent after five years. Placing your business in your home gives you a slightly better than even chance for survival. The improved odds most likely have to do with the lower overhead of a home-based business. With a soft economy and a growing number of laid-off workers who will naturally consider a business start-up when they discover their job prospects are dim, this is not the best time to launch a new enterprise. But a home business start-up boom is likely in process right now.Its not because of opportunity; its because of desire. 共5题(1) From para.1, we may know that out-of-home business launch did NOT involve_. 本题2分(A)renting an office place (B)offering more personal freedom (C)managing staff (D)investing large sum of money into the business 你选择的答案：未选择 错误正确答案：B(2) According to the passage, when will people consider a business launch? 本题2分(A)when there are fewer choices in the job market and no opportunity in the stock market. (B)when they think their job futureless. (C)when there are more and more laid-off workers as well as a soft economy.

(B)Blue-collar workers had been laid off for the first time in the last down cycle. (C)White-collar workers had been laid off for the first time in the last down cycle. (D)White-collar workers hadnt been laid off yet in earlier down cycles. 你选择的答案：未选择 错误正确答案：B(4) Now a home-based business has many advantages Except _. 本题2分(A)more chance of success (B)better chance for survival (C)no need of renting office (D)no money put into management 你选择的答案：未选择 错误正确答案：D(5) What does the passage mainly talk about? 本题2分(A)Everyone should start his own business.

In 2002, Ismail convinced Wyman to launch a new business called PubSub based on an idea that Wyman says he had been mulling for two decades: a Web search engine that would flag future references to certain search criteria, such as earthquake notifications or Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The key selling point was immediacy: While Google Alerts and other systems ran periodic checks for new related content, Wymans program notified users the instant a reference appeared. In theory, PubSub would make money by running searches on behalf of companies, or by licensing its technology for private use. Wyman, now 53, and Ismail, 41, kicked in a combined 200,000 represented his entire net worth). The friendly entrepreneurs seemed off to a good start.

Wyman says Ismail wasnt willing to dilute his ownership stake to raise more capital, while Ismail says that Wyman was too prickly and impetuous for investors to work with. Things really got messy when a well-funded company called KnowNow, which sells information-tracking services, inquired about a potential merger.
