19、ca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for the future. “Im going to college, but I need a way to pay for it,” DeLuca recalls saying. “Buck said, You should open a sandwich shop.” That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32

20、stores in ten years. After doing some research, Buck wrote a check for $1000. DeLuca rented a storefront (店面) in Connecticut, and when they couldnt cover their start-up costs, Buck kicked in another $1000. But business didnt go smoothly as they expected. DeLuca says, “After six months, we were doing

21、 poorly, but we didnt know how badly, because we didnt have any financial controls.” All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs. DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist

22、 in New York. Theyd meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “We convinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public, We are so successful, we are opening a second store.” And they didin the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learnin

23、g by trial and error. But the partners learn-as-you-go approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers. “It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasnt necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got t

24、o know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out,” DeLuca says. And having a goal was also important. “There are so many problems that can get you down.

BFor a 400-year-old art form, opera had a bad fame: overweight actresses singing the words which were hard to understand in one of those rom

29、antic languages you were supposed to learn in high school. And with tickets costing as much as $145 a performance, operagoers also had a certain appearance in peoples mind: rich, well-dressed and old.But now opera companies around the country are loosening their ties and kicking off their shoes in a

30、n attempt to keep opera alive and take it to a younger and not so wealthy audience.Opera producers have found that to attract this crowd, they need to associate opera with the common people. That means no formal suits, old-styled theatre or bank-breaking ticket prices. And because young people dont

31、or wont come to the opera, companies are bringing the opera to them, giving performances in such usual places as parks, libraries and public schools.The Houston Grand Operas choice is the public library, where it performs “mobile operas”, shortened versions of child-friendly operas. This summers pro

32、duction is Hansel & Gretel. By performing smaller versions of large productions, producers are able to make people interested while keeping costs at a reasonable level.
