During the visit, Hamilton started talking to one of the prisoners and asked what he was going to do when he got out. “He sa
32、id he was going to get a job,” Hamilton says. “I thought to myself, wow, thats going to be difficult.”The conversation made Hamilton consider how prisoners could benefit from operating their own business, something he thought about for years. Finally in 2008, 16 years after that initial conversation
33、, Hamilton created Inmates to Entrepreneurs, a nonprofit organization that helps people with criminal backgrounds start their own small businesses. “Harris and I taught our first course at a prison called How to Start Your Own Business When You Get Out,” he says.At the time, Hamilton was building hi
34、s own company, Sageworks. He was the chairman and co-founder of Sageworks. As Sageworks grew, so did Hamiltons time spent teaching at prisons throughout North Carolina.Eventually Hamilton decided it was time to change his focus to his true passion. In May 2018, he sold his stake (股份) in Sageworks, f
35、ocusing his commitment on Inmates to Entrepreneurs.“Now, anyone is able to access the course, either to become a teacher to go into prisons to teach it or to access it for themselves as a prisoner or part of the general population,” Hamilton explains.

36、ts the course to at-risk students to lead the so-called bad students to the right path.The free course is funded by the Brian Hamilton Foundation, which offers help to soldiers as they adjust to civilian life and provides loans to small businesses. “Were giving prisoners something they can do indepe

41、.D. A man successfully created two organisations.CThe giant panda is more than just a cute conservation animal and a beloved media darling. It is also, according to new research, the protector of dozens of other unique Chinese species. The panda itself doesnt actually defend other wildlife, but it h
42、elps to save it all the same by serving as whats known as an “umbrella species”. In other words, efforts to preserve habitats for the giant panda also protect many other mammals, birds and amphibians (两栖动物) that live only alongside pandas, in the same areas and regions.Conservationists have expresse
43、d this umbrella species theory for years but a paper published recently in Biological Conservation proves it. The research found that most of the forest animals in China live within the pandas geographic range and the nature reserves set aside to protect them. In brief, most of this range overlaps (
44、与重叠) with important conservation areas for other local forest species.Pandas do protect a lot although a few species fall outside the umbrella. The research found about one hundred kinds of animals are not protected by the giant pandas current reservation. The paper identified 10 locations that migh
45、t be suitable for new or improved nature reserves to help expand that coverage. Many of these areas, located in Sichuan Province, which is considered the stronghold (大本营) of giant pandas in the wild, are close to existing reserves.Protecting the newly identified locations, however, wont save all of
46、Chinas unique wildlife. “Pandas are a good umbrella species for forest ecosystems in China but thats not enough,” says co-author Binbin Li. “In China we have many ecosystems. We need more umbrella species.” For example, she says tigers could serve the same role in the northern part of the country an
47、d snow leopards could be an umbrella for grassland species.“The new findings are important,” Pimm (the other author) and Li say, “because many people doubt whether Chinas commitment to preserving giant panda habitats is doing much good.” Other people around the world dont even realize that wild pandas still live in their native forests. “A lot of the resources in China go to releasing captive (被关住的) pandas back into the wild,” Li say
