雅思口語(yǔ)話題之 創(chuàng)業(yè)篇
前幾天看北京的網(wǎng)站上有篇文章，講80%的的大學(xué)生有出國(guó)的想法和打算，而且里面有很多同學(xué)提到回國(guó)后可能要自己創(chuàng)業(yè)。看完之后除了感慨之外，還想到了最近的一個(gè)雅思考題--創(chuàng)業(yè)。雅思還真是挺趕時(shí)髦，生活中興什么，它馬上就涉及什么，當(dāng)然了，這個(gè)題目其實(shí)早在2年前就考過(guò)了，也算不得什么新題。手頭正好有個(gè)現(xiàn)成的答案，跟大家分享一下。

Describe a small business that you would like to own.
You should say:
what this business would be
how you would start/open this business
how you would run this business
and explain why you would like to run this kind of business.
答案
What this business would be
I want to open a small business. It will be a place for kids to go after school, a kind of childcare centre in the neighborhood. My town desperately needs a place like this.
How you would start/open this business
Honestly, I have no idea how to go aboutmanage it yet. But common sense tells me that the key to starting a successful business is to develop a thoughtful business plan and then get the necessary financial support. But unlike other businesses, this caregivinger business would be a non-profit organization. So I would contact some local non-profit organizations and talk with them to see if they can help me in any way.
How you would run this business
There will be food, video games, pinball, and a dance floor. I will also have tutors there to help with homework and stuff. The business would operate on a membership scheme, I mean those who want to join us have to register and pay a small amount of fee first.
and explain why you would like to run this kind of business.
I would like to start this business because first of all, theres great demand around my neighborhood. A typical school day in China normally ends at 4p.m. but the working hours for most parents is from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The centre will be a good place to the childchildren to stay in until their parents come to pick them up after work. Also I just love kids and enjoy seeing them grow. One of my friends works as a kindergarten teacher. She said that it was so much fun to working with children. They are cute, and very trusting....it is truelytruly a very promising and worthwhile career--very rewarding as well....

1.What kinds of small business are most popular in China?
One of the popular small businesses here in China is to set up an online companybusiness. You can sell anything from clothes, to antiques to used furniture. The investment cost is much lower and you could work anytime and anywhere if you have the internet connection. The process could also be fully automated as the technology is maturethere.
2.Why do some people open their own business?
The benefits are pretty obvious, such as being you own boss and not having to answer report to someone for anyeverything you do. Your time is you own, though you will probably find having your own business takes far more of your time than if you were havworking a job.
3.What challenges and difficulties do people face when they try to have a successful small business?
There is the initial startup cost, but the biggest challenge is getting the public to believe in you and the quality of your product or service. Another challenge is proper use of your time. You can be very successful spending your time doing the right things, but most of us are not successful because we dont know whatich things to focus on and in what sequenceorder.
4.What do you think is the most important factor when choosing a job or career?
It depends on the individual circumstances. Interest is definitely important, however as you get older you will really see money plays a importantlarge rolefactor. For example, if you have a family to support,your salary pay becomes more important than the other factors. But for university graduates, the opportunity to learn and practice grow weighs more than things like salary or working hours.
5.Do you think it is good to change your job frequently?
I don think its a good idea to make a general statement of saying its good or its bad. As an employer, I think that a person who changes jobs frequently is unstable and not responsiblegood for his/herthe team. However,I think a person who stays at the same job forever is fearful or unmotivated. I would like to see people who change their jobs until theyto find a better fit or for career advancement.
