He also sent anonymous gifts to a small town in Canada where his grandparents lived after they ______ there from Scotland.

Welcome to our special edition "Building Better Businesses". As is well recognized, the business world is changing. For the new generation of entrepreneurs, setting up a Silicon Valley social media venture isn't their dream. Instead, their ______ is clear: building a company that has a purpose at its heart. These founders speak with ______ that they want their companies to have a social or environmental impact as well as to make money. They want to play a role in their communities, ______ a balance between work and private life, and invest for the long term rather than for quick profits. At the same time, older people are becoming more active in entrepreneurship, too, as they find they still ______ the dream of setting up their own business and now have the confidence to take the risk. With people living longer and starting to seek more ______ in later life, this trend will surely continue to grow in the future. Plus, it is noted that older founders are more ______ to succeed in business than their younger counterparts ( 相对应者 ) because they believe they have more experience and wisdom. Our special edition intends to help you build a better business, whether you are an ambitious individual who ______ to launch an independent company and strives to make a(n) ______ impact on the world, or whether you are already a business owner and are looking for inspiration to ______ your services. Whatever your story, we hope you will find all the ______ ideas, helpful tips, instructions, and insights you need in this guide. So, why not begin your exploration with us now?

When I was young, I had a very narrow understanding of beauty. I used to ______ it with only physical things. It was about what the eye could see: soft hair, clear skin, ______ clothes, a good figure... I think some other people may also have gone through this phase of wanting the perfect shell defined solely in terms of ______ standards. When I first entered the modeling industry, I was always ______ to conform to others' criteria of beauty. I would think, "Well, if they say I'm beautiful, then I am. But if they don't, then I'm not." Even today, I can't believe how ______ my thoughts were. I want to correct this narrow idea that our beauty comes from the notions and approval of other people. When we allow others to determine what is beautiful, we fail to express and accept our individuality, our unique physical and personal ______. I think we should ask ourselves the question "What is beautiful to me?" and construct our own ______ of beauty that are more comprehensive and more meaningful. As time goes on, I have gradually expanded my definitions of beauty, without limiting them to what lies on the outside. I have started to realize that physical beauty won't last forever because we humans are all ______ and will grow old inevitably. I have met many strong and courageous women, for example, a friend who ______ breast cancer and a cousin who works hard to provide for her child. I have also met many women who are devoted to their careers. Their confidence radiates from their ______ to their professional pursuits. These women are examples of beautiful actions and thoughts. They embrace being themselves.

Cities are getting smarter every day, so are their transit options. One emerging option is autonomous vehicles (AVs), or simply cars with self-driving ______. However, as experts say, before we enter a reality where AVs are ______ into our daily lives, we will see the continued rise of electric vehicles (EVs) all over the world. Besides saving costs for consumers, EVs can bring many ______ benefits to the environment because they use electricity instead of gas to drive their wheels. Many large cities are trying to encourage the use of EVs by installing public charging stations throughout the city and ______ the vehicle registration process. At the same time, many automakers are working to ______ the charging speed of EVs and to make EVs more ______. As the use of EVs rises, greater ______ will be placed on the power industry. In some areas where energy resources are stressed already, the increasing use of EVs could well ______ the electrical supply system. EVs can also impact urban planning. Thus, consideration of commute options, location of charging stations, and open data should be part of a city's future mobility plans. It is important for automakers to partner with urban planners and utility companies to provide ______ experiences for consumers and residents. Imagine one day a driverless EV picks you up and drops you off, and then ______ to the location of the next passenger without ever stopping to recharge because of wireless power transfer from nearby energy sources. The technology is on the way, but we need to wait for our cities and energy industry to get ready as well.
