請依下文回答第 21 題至第 25 題 What is a social enterprise?

Unlike NPOs, social enterprises pay equal attention to socialvalues and profit-making capabilities. Social enterprises can take one of several forms: community organizations, cooperative ventures, NPO spinoffprojects, stand-alone ventures, or traditional companies restructured to advance social causes.
