　　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 desperatelyneeds a place like this.

　　How you would start/open this business？

　　Honestly, I have no idea how to go about it. But common sense tells me that the key to starting a successful business is to develop a business plan and then get financial support. But unlike other businesses, this caregiving business does not have to be a profitableorganization.

　　However, helping kids is the crucial thing that we should do. 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 hire co-ordinators there to help kids with homework and other kinds of stuff. The business would operate on a menbership scheme, I mean those who want to join have to register and pay annual fee first. There will be individual membership fee and family membership fee which is quite a bargain.Then the members will be entitled to enjoy the refreshments in the memeber's lounge.

　　and explain why you would like to run this kind of business.

　　I would like to start this business because first of all, there’s great demand around my neighborhood. The typicalprimary schools or secondary schools in China normally end 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 for the child to stay until their parents come to pick them up after work. Also I could set up a nursery or a kindergartencatering for kids who are in tender ages. One of my friends works as a kindergarten teacher. She said that it was so much fun to work with children.They are cute, and very trusting....it is trulely a very promising and worthwhile career--very rewarding as well....

　　1. What kinds of small business are most popular in China?

　　One of the most popular small businesses here in China is to set up an online business. You can sell anything from clothes to [wv]antiques[/wv to second-hand furniture. The investment cost is much lower than normal companies and you could work anytime and anywhere as long as you have the Internet access. The process could also be fully automated as the technology is ever-improving.

　　2. Why do some people open their own business?

　　The benefits are pretty obvious, such as 'being you own boss' and not having to follow the daily routines. Your time is you own, though you will probably find having your own business takes far more of your time than what you expected.

　　3. What challenges and difficulties do people face when they try to have a successful small business?

　　Although little initial startupcost is required, the biggest challenge is getting the public to believe in you and the quality of your service. Another challenge is getting full use of your time in which way you can exert your potential into full play.

　　4. What do you think is the most important factor when choosing a job or career?

　　It depends on individual circumstances. Although salary plays an important role in choosing a career, for newly graduates the opportunity to learn weighs more than salary.

　　5. Do you think it is good to change your job frequently?

　　I suppose changing job frequently has both benefits and drawbacks. As an employer, some maintain that a person who changes jobs frequentlyis unstable and not good for the team. I think a person who stays at the same job forever is fearful or unmotivated. I like to see people who change to find a better fit or for career advancement.
