单选题 .    Welcome to our small business set-up guide, providing all the information you need to start your business on a healthy, solid basis.
    From choosing the right name for your company and making your first business plan, through to up-to-date taxation (税务) advice, banking and insurance tips, each subject is discussed in the guide.
    We also look at the vital need to survive in business. Determination and originality (原创性) are key. Equally, so is the ability to organize your time and to put in the required effort during the early days.
    As with any new business, success can never be guaranteed, but our aim is to reduce the difficulties involved in setting up a business on your own. We'll forewarn you of the most common problems, including failure to research your market in sufficient detail and not setting aside enough funds for tougher financial times.
    Starting up even the smallest business can be challenging. But take comfort in the fact that you are not alone. In fact, of the four million businesses currently in operation in the UK, more than 99.3% are classified as "small", with fewer than 50 employees.
    In order to keep this guide as brief as possible, where we've not had enough room to include every detail, you'll find a link taking you to the most relevant (相关的) articles.
    Good luck with your business idea.1.  This guide is intended to help people to ______.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】 事实细节题。文章在第一段开篇就指出,这个向导是“small business set-up guide”(关于小企业的创办向导),所以选项B为正确答案。选项A(应对金融危机),是在第四段讲到这个向导会为你预警将出现的金融危机时期的问题。选项C(为新公司筹资),选项D(创建公共关系)在文中没有出现。
