参考译文

星巴克不仅卖咖啡,还卖喝咖啡时的体验。星巴克咖啡店有高质量的饮品、舒适的就餐环境和著名的品牌。在那里喝饮料有趣而时尚。

1971年,第一家星巴克在华盛顿州的西雅图开张。一开始,它只是一家普通的咖啡店。到了20世纪80年代,它经历了一场巨变。店主们在游历意大利后,决定把星巴克改造成一家意式咖啡店。他们的想法取得了巨大成功。很快,美国的许多城市都有了星巴克。

20世纪90年代,星巴克开始走向国际。它们于1995年在日本开了第一家分店。此后,包括中国在内的许多亚洲国家都有了星巴克。到2000年时,全世界的星巴克超过了3000家。

星巴克远不止卖咖啡。这家公司还参与许多社区活动。比如,有一批经理人叫做“绿色小分队”。他们领导着当地社区的回收项目。他们还从事种树和清洁社区的活动。另一个机构叫做星巴克基金会,该机构的任务是鼓励年轻人读书。

所以,下次你在星巴克要上一杯咖啡时,你会感到很欣慰,因为你知道,有些公司不是只想着挣钱,他们还关心你和周围的环境。
