Choosing a career is one of the most important decisions you will ever make.Most people spend half or more of their waking hours five days a week at their jobs.While selecting a career can be a difficult process,the following tips can make this process easier for you.
Extensive1 reading about potential careers is vital.You will discover details about careers that you were not aware of.It’s important to collect vital information such as career descriptions,career outlooks,employment statistics, educational requirements,and potential earnings.
Look for lists of “hot jobs” on the Internet and in magazines. Do this frequently since these lists keep changing. A “hot job” today may not be “hot” next year or the year after next year. When evaluating these lists,keep in mind your interests,skills and job satisfaction requirements.
Find a mentor2.Many colleges and employers have a formal mentoring programme.Also,formal mentoring organisations are available that match mentors with individuals.It is a great way to learn about a career,and a mentor can provide valuable networking opportunities.“Mentworking” is a new trend which combines mentoring and networking,and which has shown good results.
Interviewing people in the field is an excellent way to learn about the various aspects of a career.Doing this may also provide good social communication opportunities.Informational interviews often change a person’s perspective3 about an occupation.You can find interview candidates by asking friends, teachers and neighbours.You can also contact relevant professional associations and societies and visit appreciate social and professional networking sites online.
The skills required for a career are an essential factor for an individual's potential for success in that career.Write a list of the skills needed for a particular field.Place a check next to each skill you possess.The more checks you make,the more likely the field is right for you.
Your skills should be a vital factor in your career selection process.A satisfying career is often built upon a match with what you are naturally good at.Natural strengths allow an individual to work with ease and acquire expertise faster.

简单句有“主语+谓语”“主语+系动词+表语”“主语+谓语+宾语”“主语+谓语+间接宾语+直接宾语”“主语+谓语+宾语+宾语补足语”五种基本结构。其他各种句子基本上皆由此五种结构转换、缩略或扩展而成。
The people in the meeting room remained silent.
会议室里的人保持沉默。
Many young artists are advised to learn by copying the work of the masters.
许多年轻艺术家们被建议通过临摹大师们的作品来学习。
二、并列句
并列句由两个或两个以上的简单句并列在一起构成。并列句中常见的连词有:
1.表示并列关系:and,not only...but also,neither...nor,both...and,not...but,as well as等。
Make up your mind,and you’ll get the chance.
如果你下定决心,你会有机会的。
2.表示转折或对比关系:but,yet,while,whereas, nevertheless(但是;然而)等。
Jane said that she was ill,yet/but/whereas I saw her in the street just now.
简说她病了,但我刚才还在街上看见她了。
3.表示因果关系:for,so,thus,therefore等。

我们最好待在家里,因为天正在下雨。
He didn’t work hard,so he failed in the examination.
他学习不努力,因此这次考试不及格。
4.表示选择关系:or,otherwise,or else,either...or等。

我们必须快点,否则会赶不上火车。
Either you come to my place or I go to yours.
或者你到我这儿来,或者我到你那儿去。
三、复合句
复合句由一个主句和一个或一个以上的从句构成。在复合句中主句是全句的主体,从句是全句的一个成分,不能独立存在。主句与从句之间用关联词连接起来。由一个主句和一个或一个以上的从句所构成的句子叫主从复合句。由连词连接的两个或两个以上分句中至少有一个是主从复合句,这种句子称为并列复合句。
从句可分为主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句、定语从句和状语从句。
1.主语从句。
做句子主语的从句叫主语从句。主语从句通常由从属连词that,whether和连接代词what,who,which,whatever,whoever以及连接副词how,when,where,why等词引导。that在句中无词义,只起连接作用;连接代词和连接副词在句中既保留自己的疑问含义,又起连接作用,在从句中充当从句的成分。有时为避免句子头重脚轻,常用形式主语it代替主语从句放于句首,而把主语从句置于句末。
What the doctor is uncertain about is whether my mother will recover from the serious disease soon.
医生不能确定的是我母亲是否会很快从这个严重的疾病中
康复。
It is recommended that the project should not be started until all the preparations have been made.
建议在所有准备工作完成后再开始这项工程。
2.宾语从句。
用作宾语的从句叫宾语从句。引导宾语从句的关联词与引导主语从句的关联词大致一样,但表示“是否”时,可用if引导宾语从句。
that引导宾语从句时,that在句中不担当任何成分,在口语或非正式的文体中常被省去,但如果从句是并列句时,最后一个分句前的that不可省。
I can’t understand why he was late.
我不明白他为什么来得这么晚。
3.表语从句。
在句中做表语的从句叫表语从句。引导表语从句的关联词与引导主语从句的关联词大致一样,表语从句位于系动词后。
The problem is who we can get to replace her.
问题是我们能找到谁去替换她。
4.同位语从句。
与先行词同位或等同的从句叫作同位语从句。同位语从句的先行词多为fact,news,idea,thought,reply,report,remark等抽象名词,其关联词多为连词that。
Where did you get the idea that I could not come
你从哪儿听说我不能来
5.定语从句。
定语从句在句中做定语。定语从句一般皆放在它所修饰的名(代)词之后,这种名(代)词就叫作先行词。引导定语从句的关联词为关系代词who,whom,which,that,whose,as和关系副词when,where,why。
The tall man who is standing over there is my brother.
站在那里的那个高个子男士是我的兄弟。
6.状语从句。
状语从句在句中做状语。可以修饰谓语、非谓语动词、定语、状语或整个句子。根据其意义可分为时间、地点、原因、条件、目的、结果、让步、方式和比较等从句。状语从句一般由从属连词引导。
I was late because I missed the bus.
我迟到了,因为我错过了公共汽车。

David is a 22-year-old man.Not having received a college education,he found it difficult to find a job.He worked at a small company and wasn't paid well.He thought life was unfair and often complained.
One day,his boss asked him to go to his office.To his sadness,he was told he didn't need to come to work again.
That day,David didn't go straight back to the small apartment he shared with another man.He wanted to find a quiet place and sit there quietly for some time.Having lost his job,he had no idea what to do.
He walked and walked.Finally he stopped in front of a beautiful house.The house had a very big garden behind it. He saw an old man sitting in the garden.
“The old man must be a millionaire,” thought David. “How I wish I were him! If I were him,I wouldn't have to work and I'd have a large amount of money.I would be the happiest man in the whole world.”
Thinking how poor he was,David was even sadder.He hurriedly walked forward,found a place and sat there quietly.
Finally,he became hungry and decided to go back home. On his way back home,he passed the old man's house again. This time the man was sitting in his front yard.When David passed by him,he noticed that the old man was looking at him.The old man looked as if he admired him very much. David was confused.Why would such a rich man admire him He was so poor while he was so rich.
Finally,David decided to have a talk with the old man.So he stopped and walked to the old man.
“Hello,” he said.
“Hello,” said the old man.
Then they started talking.David told the old man he really admired him.
“You have such a beautiful house.You're so rich! How I wish I were you!” said David.
Hearing that,the old man smiled and said,“And I admire you,too! I wish I were you! If I were you,I'd still enjoy my youth.Now I'm so old.Wealth doesn't mean much to me!”
What the old man said struck David.


David stopped complaining about his life.


写作指导
1.通读全文,理解大体故事情节,把握主线。
通过阅读所给文章可知,文章主要讲述了戴维工作不好,收入不高,总是抱怨,被老板辞掉了。失业后他偶然遇见了一位富人,戴维很羡慕拥有大房子的这位富裕老人,而通过交谈得知,这位富人也很羡慕年轻的戴维……
2.结合原文分析段首提示,展开想象进行合理推测。
仔细研读所给出的第一段首句,这有助于我们编写后续故事时与前文叙述的内容高度融合,第二段首句决定着我们续写的第一段的情节发展。
原文最后写道:听到戴维说的话,老人笑着回复说,我也羡慕你,我希望自己是你。如果我是你的话,我将还能享受自己的年轻。现在我这么老了,财富对我来说不能意味着很多。续写第一段首句说老年人的话打动了戴维,因此接下来应该是戴维内心的思索。通过这位老人的话戴维明白了:即使财富再多,有什么用呢 老人羡慕的是自己正拥有的。自己拥有的年轻才是最有价值的东西,这是不可再生的。他知道,年轻就意味着可能,自己没必要羡慕有钱的老人了,自己只要年轻就会拥有获得财富的机会,所以要充分利用年轻的优势去奋斗。
第二段开头是:戴维不再抱怨他的生活。后文应当描写戴维决定做出改变。他学习新东西,慢慢地开始了自己的事业,然后变得富有了。变得富有是呼应了整个文章的主题。续写既要有情节的连贯又要有思想的升华。所以,在续写的最后,我们需要对文章进行提升——他知道财富不是他生命中最重要的,他想过上充实的生活。
高分范文
What the old man said struck David.He suddenly realised that wealth wouldn't really mean much if one was already so old.What the old man really wanted was what he still enjoyed—his youth.It was the most valuable thing he had.He realised that he was still young and everything was possible for him.David looked at the old man again and this time he no longer admired him,knowing he still had a chance to become rich.But the old man could never become young again.
David stopped complaining about his life.Instead,he decided to make a change.Later he found work again.With time going by,he worked harder and harder and tried his best to learn new things in his free time.He even went to attend a course at a night school.Two years later,he found better work.And some years later, he started his own business.Finally,he became rich.Realising that wealth wasn't the most important in his life,he wanted to live life to its fullest.It was what the old man said that changed him completely.
名师点评
本篇续写情节连贯,事件发展符合客观规律,对于戴维的心理活动描写以及思想的转变自然、到位。文章的基调和主题贯穿全文,用语准确、得体。词汇、短语以及句式的运用娴熟,结尾积极向上,很好地呼应了文章开始人物的行为表现及内心感受。if引导的条件状语从句,It was...that强调句的使用等都极大地丰富了故事的语言感召力。
高分典句
1.that引导的宾语从句和if引导的条件状语从句
He suddenly realised that wealth wouldn’t really mean much if one was already old.
2.what引导的主语从句和表语从句
What the old man really wanted was what he still enjoyed—his youth.
3.动词-ing形式短语做原因状语
David looked at the old man again and this time he no longer admired him,knowing he still had a chance to become rich.
4.with的复合结构做伴随状语
With time going by,he worked harder and harder and tried his best to learn new things in his free time.
5.强调句型
It was what the old man said that changed him completely.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写词数应为150左右。
Jerry was the kind of guy you love to hate.He was always in a good mood and always had something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing,he would reply,“If I were any better,I would be twins!”
He was a unique manager because he had several waiters who had followed him around from restaurant to restaurant. Because of Jerry's attitude,the waiters followed him.He was a natural motivator.If an employee was having a bad day, Jerry was there,telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.
Seeing this style really made me curious,so one day I went up to Jerry and asked him,“I don't get it!You can't be a positive person all of the time.How do you do it ”Jerry replied,“Each morning I wake up and say to myself,‘Jerry,you have two choices today.You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.' I choose to be in a good mood.Each time something bad happens,I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it.I choose to learn from it.Every time someone comes to me,complaining,I can choose to accept their complaint or I can point out the positive side of life.I choose the positive side of life.”
“Yeah,but anyway it's not that easy,” I argued.
“Yes,it is,” Jerry said.“Life is all about choices.When you cut away all the junk,every situation is a choice.You choose how you react to situations.You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood.The bottom line: It's your choice how you live your life.”
I reflected on what Jerry said.Soon thereafter,I left the restaurant industry to start my own business.Although we don't meet often since then,we still keep in touch.
One day,I was suddenly told that Jerry was sent to hospital.I immediately rushed to the hospital to visit him.Jerry was lying calmly on the bed.Seeing me come into the ward,he greeted me with a smile.When I asked what had happened,he told me he was held up by three robbers.They asked him to open the safe,but he didn't hesitate to turn down their request,saying firmly that he would by no means do that.The robbers had no other alternative but to hit him with sticks violently and leave the restaurant unwillingly.
After hearing his story about the robbery,I was quite surprised how he could still remain so optimistic.I asked him how he was.He replied,“If I were any better,I'd be twins!” How could he still remain so positive even after such a terrible event It seemed that he had read my mind and said,“When I lay on the operating table,I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live,or to die.I chose to live.So I lived owing to my choice.”I learned from his words that every day we had the choice to live fully.
