Post-reading
Answer:
1. The author stated clearly at the end: If you want to succeed in the
21st century career, you will have to develop new essential skills.
Lifetime security from one employer is no longer certain or even
likely. The truth is that you are the boss of your career, and it is
up to you to decide what you can do and how well you can do it.
This means that you are responsible for your future.

The writer uses this way to emphasise what is
wrong and invite readers to pay more attention
on what he or she says about the real trend
about the future. The writer discusses some of
the wrong assumptions in order to make the
readers reflect and realise that what common
people think at present will no longer be true in
the future and that they have no other choices
but to walk out of their comfort zone and be their boss.

complete强调事物在内容、程度、或数量方面已完整，已达标准。
full侧重指内容，含有能包括所有的充足内容的意味。
total与complete用法相近，但强调总量。
gross侧重指未打折扣，未除去成本或皮重等与净重、净数相对。

It must be delightful to find oneself in a foreign country without a penny in one’s pocket.

Thank you!(共6张PPT)
Up until the 1980s, people in
many countries regularly
followed in their parents’
footsteps by working in the
family business or joining
the same profession as them.
You’d follow your father to
sea, onto the farm or into the workshop. You’d follow your mother into the kitchen or sewing room. In your grandparents’time, there was the prospect of doing the same job from graduation until retirement. How times have changed! Most
Meet the New Boss: You
people now have no intention
of following in their parents’
footsteps or even staying
at one job for very long.
In fact, planning to
work in the same field
or industry for your
entire working life just
isn’t practical anymore. One reason for this is technology. The skills you have now are unlikely to remain relevant and be enough to help you through your entire career. In fact, they will probably be out of date very soon. And then what will you do Work hard Win
the lottery Hope for the best You might be
lucky. These strategies
might bring you a nice,
comfortable life: working
at a job you like, earning a
decent salary and retiring
while you’re still young
and healthy. But most of us today have to look beyond the little box called “career”.
If you think you can work eight hours a day and build a career, think again. You might be
able to keep your job if you finish what you are asked to do, but this is hardly a recipe for great career success. Instead, you’d better keep looking for smarter ways to do your
work. You’ll need to be a risk taker, an innovator, a problem solver, and a hard worker. Keep doing this, and you can become an expert or a specialist in something one day. You have a chance to choose to build a career, rather than being told to stay or to go.
Jobs and occupations
come and go at an
amazing pace these
days. If you think you
can’t be replaced by
software, or your job
can’t be outsourced
to some robots on the moon, you are wrong. What if your job disappears after working for
10 years in the field You may have to go back to the classroom and be retrained in order to qualify to work in another field. In fact, in all likelihood, you will have to do this multiple times. But you can be prepared for developments and changes before you are thrown out of a career. It is entirely your choice to learn,
or to be forced
to learn.
In short, if you want to succeed in a 21st century career, you will have to develop new essential skills. Lifetime security from one employer is no longer certain or even likely. The truth is that you are the boss of your career, and it is up to you to decide what you can do and how well you can do it. Are you ready for this
