使用了被动语态来描述企业的成立背景。
Amazon was founded on July 16, 1995, primarily as an online bookstore. Bezos recognized the immense potential and unique characteristics of the internet: why would anyone go out to a physical bookstore when they could browse collections in their pajamas from the comfort of home?
Amazon's original plan was to achieve profitability within four to five years. During the dot-com bubble of 20xx, Amazon's steady growth strategy turned it into a remarkable success story. While many internet companies in the 1990s grew rapidly only to collapse when the bubble burst, Amazon's conservative and slow-paced approach—which shareholders had previously criticized—allowed it to survive and remain profitable. By the fourth quarter of 20xx, Amazon reported a net profit of approximately $5 million, a figure that grew to over $300 million by 20xx.
亚马逊公司成立于1995年7月16日，最初主要经营业务是网络书店。贝佐斯敏锐地察觉到了互联网的潜力和独特魅力：如果人们足不出户、穿着睡衣就能在线选购书籍，谁还会出门逛书店呢？
亚马逊最初的盈利预期是在4到5年后实现。在20xx年的互联网泡沫期间，亚马逊凭借稳健的发展策略脱颖而出，成为业界传奇。相比于90年代那些盲目扩张、最终在泡沫破裂后倒闭的互联网公司，亚马逊的策略虽然曾被股东抱怨过于保守和缓慢，但最终却在风暴中生存下来并实现盈利。在20xx年的第四季度，亚马逊实现了约500万美元的净利润，到20xx年，这一数字已增长至3亿多美元。
