物理学专业英语汇编

3、你是否购买过DIY手工艺制品？

我们从小学、中学到大学，学的知识总是限制在一定范围内，缺乏在商业统计、会计，理财税收等方面的知识；也无法把自己的创意准确而清晰地表达出来，缺少个性化的信息传递。

对目标市场和竞争对手情况缺乏了解，分析时采用的数据经不起推敲，没有说服力等。

这些都反映出我们大学生创业知识的缺乏；

（1）专业知识限制

目前，上海市创业培训中心已开办大学生创业培训班，共招收上海交通大学、上海商业职业技术学院等应届毕业生６２人。

秘诀：

好市口＋个性经营

但这些困难并非能够否定我们创业项目的可行性。

盖茨是由一个普通退学学生变成了世界首富，李嘉诚是由一个穷人变成了华人富豪第一人，他们的成功表述一个简单的道理：

如果你有能力，你可以从身无分文变成超级富豪；如果你无能，你也可以从超级富豪变成穷光蛋。

8、你是如何得志DIY手工艺制品的？

在大学生对DIY手工艺品价位调查中，发现有46%的女生认为在十元以下的价位是可以接受；48%的认为在10-15元；6%的则认为50-100元能接受。
