1.Travel across Africa For six hours we shot through the barren landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending.Daniel and I just wan​ted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already fin​ished three notebooks and was into the fourth,a beautiful leather notebook I’d bought in a market in Mozambique. Southern Africa was full of stories and visions. We were almost drunk on sensations, the roaring of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Bot​swana. And then the other things：dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto living in one room,a kilometre from clean water. As we drove towards the setting sun,a quietness fell over us. The road was empty—we hadn’t seen another car for hours. And as I drove,something caught my eye,something mov​ing close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn’t know how long they had been there next to us. I shouted to Dan："Look!"But he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet. They raced the car for a few seconds,then disappeared far behind us,a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened. “Wild horses?”he said.“Why didn’t you wake me up,Sophia?” "I tried. But they were gone after a few seconds." "Are you sure you didn’t dream it?" “You were the one who was sleeping!” “Typical”,he said. "The best photos are the ones we never take." We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.

1.The Making of a Success Story IKEA is the world’s largest furniture retailer,and the man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad, one of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs. Born in Sweden in 1926, Kamprad was a natural business man. As a child,he enjoyed selling things and made small profits from sell​ing matches,seeds and pencils in his community. When Kamprad was 17,his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades. Naturally he used it to start up a business IKEA. IKEA’s name comes form Kamprads’ initials (I. K. )and the place where he grew up (E and A). Today IKEA is known for its modern,minimalist furniture,but it was not a furniture company in the beginning. Rather, IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods. Kamprad’s wares included anything that he could sell for profits at low prices, including watches, pens and stockings. IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947. The furniture was all designed and made by manufactures near Kamprad’s home. Initial sales were very en​couraging, so Kamprad expanded the product line. Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company in 1951. In 1953 IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult,Sweden, IKEA is known today for its spacious stress with furniture in attractive settings, but in the early 1950s, people ordered from catalogues. Thus response to the first showroom was overwhelming: people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it. This led to increased sales and the company continued to thrive. By 1955, IKEA was designing all its own furniture. In 1956 Kamprad saw a man disassembling a table to make it easier to transport. Kamprad was inspired. The man had given him a great idea: flat packaging. Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices for customers. IKEA tried it and sales soared. The problem was that people had to assemble furniture themselves, but over time, even this grew into an advantage for IKEA. Nowadays,IKEA is often seen as having connota​tions of self-sufficiency. This image has done wonders for the company, leading to better salesand continued expansion.
