单选题After losing her job and home in 1984, Lynn Carr was living on the streets of St. Charles, Montana, with her five-year-old son. "We slept in our car for about a week," she said, "but then it was sold."
As she moved from one friend"s house to another, Carr began working toward a high-school-equivalence-diploma, listening to self-help tapes and making cheesecakes. After developing some new methods which she thought were pretty good, she offered her cakes to a restaurant. They sold out in a matter of hours.
The following year, she met a man at a church service and before long, they married. Carr began selling the cheesecakes out of their home. Later she opened a cheesecake company. As business became better and better, Cart didn"t forget where she came from.
All the women she hires are mothers or high school dropouts (辍学者)—workers most other employers wouldn"t like to hire. Her dozen workers make 100 to 150 cakes a week and Carr owes her success to her employees. She says, "We are going to have a learning center and a day-care center in the company. Part of the workday will be spent studying for high-school-equivalence diplomas."
Recently, a 33-year-old woman with three children to raise was referred to Carr. She hired her at once. "It has been a real blessing (恩赐)," the woman said.
