inary citizens. But using the Internet can be like walking into a library where the books are all lying on the floor in piles. While tools like Google allow some structured search, much of the data from such searches is outdated or of questionable value. Some web enthusiasts have taken up the task of organizing information through a democratic means that only the Internet allows: an encyclopedia of the people, by the people, and completely free to copy and distribute.

This people's encyclopedia' of the Web (a free site called Wikipedia) has provided a unique solution by inviting individuals to participate in the process of rationalizing and updating web con- tent. At the heart of this movement are wikis, web sites that allow users to directly edit any web page with one click of the mouse.

Wikipedia (the largest example of these collaborative efforts) is a functioning, user-contributed online encyclopedia that has become a popular and highly regarded reference in just three years of existence. The goal of Wikipedia was to create an encyclopedia that could be shared and copied freely while encouraging people to change and improve the content. Each and every article has an "Edit this page" button, allowing anyone, even anonymous passersby, to add or delete any content on the page. It seems like a recipe for disaster and chaos, but it has produced surprisingly credible content that has been evaluated and revised by the thousands of international visitors to the site.

The Wikipedia project was started by Jimmy Wales, head of Internet startup bomis com, after his original project for a volunteer, but strictly controlled, free encyclopedia ran out of money and resources after two years. Editors with PhD degrees were at the helm of the project then, but it produced only a few hundred articles. Not wanting the content to languish, Wales placed the pages on a wiki website in January 2001 and invited any Internet visitors to edit or add to the collection.

The site became a runaway success in the first year and gained a loyal following, generating over 20,000 articles and spawning over a dozen language translations. After two years, it had 100, 000 articles. Over 2,000 new articles are added each day across all the various languages. And ac- cording to website rankings at alexa, com, it has become more popular than traditional online encyclopedias such as britannica, com and is one of the top 200 most heavily visited websites on the internet.

The author called Wikipedia people's encyclopedia because it______.

A．is accessible by all the passersby.

B．can be edited by everyone.

C．is run by ordinary people.

D．is built to the taste of common citizens.

How to Pick a Career in Business

Picking the right career in business is a matter of matching what you want to do with the kind of life you want to lead Figuring (31) how to strike this balance generally requires prioritizing the following issues: industry, location, and working conditions. First and foremost, ask yourself what industry interests you (32) ？ Many websites on the Internet can be (33) great use. For example, Vault. com provides a thorough list of industries that can give you the information necessary for (34) this decision. It is also important to investigate what kind of business careers in your target industry (35) growing and hiring. Location involves many factors. Where would you like to live？ Do you prefer big cities or small towns？ How far and by what (36) are you willing to commute？ Do you want to be close to your family and friends (37) do you want to strike out into new territory？ Many people also (38) into account the cost of living in different areas of the country or world. Then (39) the question: what kind of working environment best suits your working style？ Some people need to feel rooted to a workspace (40) they are surrounded by coworkers, while others hope to see new faces every day. When choosing your career in business, try to consider which way—or in which combination—you are most comfortable and productive.

ike boo. com, the urban sportswear retailer that tanked last year, and dressmart, com, the struggling men's wear specialist. Those once stellar online brands expanded too fast, spent much more than they earned, and then lost their investor support after Internet stocks began plummeting last April. The markets sent online fashion stores a tough message: come up with business models that generate revenues.

A few firms have shown that not all online fashion shops are Internet disasters. Copenhagen-based haburi, com, the online designer-label discount store, Sweden's sportswear vendor Sportus and the Italian shirts store Marco Bracci are doing well in a very tough environment.

Haburi's distinctive business model is an Internet version of the factory outlet where brand manufacturers sell directly to consumers at lower prices from huge out-of-town shopping malls. A concept used in the U. S. far more than in Europe, and Haburi wants to fill the gap. Michael Vad, Haburi's CEO, says that Europe's apparel factory outlet sector could yield $10 billion in sales annually.

According to Vad, national regulations that limit malls outside city centers have hampered the development of this sector. "For the consumer, there is the two-hour drive to the mall, and when you get there, you don't know whether you will get the size or color you want," says Vad. By going online, Haburi aims to cut the retailer's costs, save consumers the long drive, and deliver orders within two or five days. Haburi splits net revenue 50-50 with the brand manufacturers.

Apparel is difficult to sell online because people like to feel and touch the clothes they buy. For the online retailer, acquiring the items, inspecting them, cleaning and storing them can be expensive. "The cost of customer service in the apparel business is much higher than selling books or even furniture," says Matthew Nordan, a retail analyst at Forester Research's Amsterdam office.

Unless linked to a major established operation, an online retailer needs a competitive edge. For example, Italian shirt-maker Marco Bracci sells expensive goods for high profits and has cornered a niche market. Dressmart, on the other hand, tried to do too much too soon. Originally it planned to sell only shirts and to make the original Swedish operation profitable before branching out. But within months it tried to go pan-European and sell everything including ties, shoes and sportswear, and to rent physical outlet at airports. Dressmart, on the verge of bankruptcy and searching for a backer, has now scaled back and operates only in Sweden.

The European online fashion business ______ .

A．has gone through the most difficult times

B．was in a big boom some time ago

C．lost support of all its stockholders

D．made much money from urban sportswear last year
