【导语】 过去,人们常常继承父母的职业,但时代已经改变。随着科技的快速发展,工作稳定性变得不确定,技能也迅速过时。如今,个人必须掌控自己的职业生涯,不断学习和适应,才能取得成功。
MEET THE NEW BOSS:YOU
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 prospect① of doing the same job from graduation until retirement.How times have changed! Most 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now are unlikely to remain relevant② and be enough to help you through your entire career.In fact,they will probably be out of date very soon.And then what will you do Work hard Win the lottery Hope for the best You might be lucky.These strategies might bring you a nice,comfortable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”.
...
In short,if you want to succeed in a 21st century career,you will have to develop new essential③ 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

WORKING OUT① WHAT YOU WANT TO DO
As an adult,[1]one of the first questions you are asked when meeting someone new is,“What do you do?” [2]This is because your career is a very important part of who you are.[3]The career you have defines your life,and so taking time to think about it is an essential exercise for young people.
[1]此处的“you are asked”为定语从句,修饰questions;此处的“when meeting someone new”为时间状语从句的省略,补充完整为“when you are meeting someone new”。
[2]本句为主从复合句。句中because引导表语从句;“who you are”为宾语从句,作介词of的宾语。
[3]本句为并列连词and连接两个分句构成的并列复合句。前半句中“you have”为定语从句,修饰The career;后半句中“taking time to think about it”为动词-ing形式短语作主语。

①work out弄清楚;制定(计划);计算出;解决
The best time [4]to start thinking about possible careers is while you are still at school,before you make any choices② about your further education.This,however,[5]is not always easy.Some people know what they want to do from a young age,but many others just have a few ideas bouncing around③ in their heads.
[4]此处为动词不定式作后置定语。如果一个名词前有形容词最高级或序数词修饰,常用动词不定式作后置定语。
[5]此处为部分否定,not always意为“不总是……”。
②make a choice做出选择
③bounce around蹦来蹦去;弹来弹去
在本句中引申为“想法在脑子里晃来晃去”之意。
bounce/ba?ns/vi.&vt.(使)弹起;上下晃动n.弹性;弹跳;活力
[6]One of the most effective ways to get some insight on a possible career path is to complete a “career aptitude④ test”. The results of the test will tell you about your strengths⑤ and interests,and some tests also suggest careers [7]that you may be suited to⑥.Having this information will provide you with⑦ a better chance of finding a job you like.There are many free tests online,so give one a try.Getting a head start⑧ in considering your future career may help you for the rest of your life.You don't want to look back⑨ in years to come and say,“I wish I had thought more about what I really wanted to do.”
[6]本句中动词不定式“to get some insight...”作后置定语,修饰ways;动词不定式“to complete...test”作表语。
[7]此处为that引导的定语从句,修饰careers。

弄清楚你想做什么
作为一名成年人,你结识新朋友时首先被问及的问题之一是:“你是做什么工作的?”这是因为你的职业是你身份的一个非常重要的组成部分。你所从事的职业决定了你的生活,所以花点时间来思考它,对年轻人来说是一项至关重要的锻炼。
开始考虑自己可能从事的职业的最佳时间,是你还在学校的时候,在你对自己的继续深造做出任何选择之前。然而,这并不总是那么容易。有些人年轻时就清楚自己想做什么,但更多的人往往是只有一些想法在脑子里晃来晃去。
要想洞察可能从事的职业道路,最有效的方法之一是完成“职业能力倾向测验”。从测验结果能看出你的强项和兴趣,一些测验还会推荐可能适合的职业。拥有这种信息将会为你提供一个更好的机会来找到你喜欢的工作。网上有很多免费的测验,所以尝试一下吧。在考虑你的未来职业方面早做打算,这可能会让你终身受益。你不会想在以后的岁月里回顾过去时说:“我真希望我当初能多想想自己真正想要做什么。”
有很多不同种类的职业能力倾向测验。有些测验会问一些关于你的个人兴趣和态度的问题。另一些测验则更侧重于让你给不同类型的工作场景打分,比如说当图书管理员或律师。当然,在完成这类测验时,诚实是非常重要的——无须担心——答案没有对错之分。

有一项流行的测验要求参与者给自己对各种工作任务的偏好打分。参与者的回答随后会被分析并划分为六种不同类型的职业性格。然后为参与者提供一张图表,显示他们在每一种职业性格上的得分。最高的三项得分会用来组成一个代码,以显示参与者的整体职业性格,然后用这个代码生成一份职业建议列表。
职业建议也基于你的教育和经验水平,但是你也可以看看更高层次的职业,这对高中生非常有用。例如,你可以看看基础性的职业,以了解你现在可能喜欢什么工作,然后再看看更高级别的职业,这样你就知道未来你可能想要以什么为目标。这是一个很好的工具,可以帮助规划你的职业,让你知道你需要达成什么目标才能实现理想。
总之,职业能力倾向测验显然是一个十分有用的工具。然而,重要的是要记住,它们仅供指导之用。职业生涯成功的秘诀在于找到你所热爱的事物。所以,尝试一些这样的网络测验,然后马上开始思考你未来的职业吧!

Kate Winslet is,according to herself,an “open” book.Her honesty and down-to-earth nature have made her one of the world's most beloved celebrities—and these are on display in an interview with Harpe's Bazaar,where she shared very personal details about her life.
Despite her fame and fortune,she was a battler who overcame many barriers to get to where she is today.“My father had dreams of becoming a great actor and always made the most of things.” Winslet warmly recalled.However,when Winslet was just 11,her father had an accident and lost his foot,significantly affecting the family's future.“His foot was reattached through a wonderful operation,but that was extremely hard for him.And at that point,we were supported by the Children's Trust,helping with school expenses.I am one of the most unlikely success stories,” she explained.
Despite all the hardships,her family did everything in their power to help Winslet achieve her dream.She told Harpe's,“I've always been so grateful to my parents that they attach great importance to my dream.” When she was 17,it was her father who took her to try out for the teenage movie Heavenly Creatures and encouraged her,“You'll get the role.” And she just thought,“Yes,I'm going to get it.”
It was a role she ultimately landed.“It was a quiet,humble (谦逊的) sort of confidence that I've always tried to hang on to,” she added.For Winslet,remembering her history and where she came from is essential to who she is today.“It's very hard to stay grounded,but I did.”

Joyce LeMay is an associate professor of business at Bethel University.She said that college seniors are always amazed by how much work goes into finding a job.“Many college seniors have great resumes from internships and other part—or full-time jobs.But they are surprised by how long the interviewing process takes.” Many even become discouraged when they are rejected for a role,too.However,there are a lot of ways to increase your chances of finding the perfect role.
“Don't just look for jobs online,” said LeMay.“Although it's easy to find jobs on the Internet,over 85 percent of job seekers are also looking at the same jobs.Hundreds of people can apply for each position and employers get inundated with responses,” she said.If you do find a job online,LeMay recommends first looking within your own contacts.“It's good to find out if you have someone in your network that could help you get connected,” she said.
LeMay also advises writing a separate application for each role.“Your resume needs to stand out from your competition and the best way to do that is to customize (定制) it to the specific job you are applying for,” said LeMay.In the experience section,be sure to highlight accomplishments that match the job description.This will show a future employer that you're qualified for the role.
A job search can take three to six months or longer,so don't take rejection personally.You will not get a job offer from every interview,but don't let that affect your confidence.It's important to keep trying.“Many college graduates have their hopes set on one or two companies and when the job doesn't come through,they are devastated (极度不安的),” said LeMay.“Keep your mind and your options open—there are many incredible career opportunities you haven't heard of yet.”
