Unit 4 Career Planning

课内阅读参考译文

择业规划

1 进行择业规划不一定要遵照常规的或合乎逻辑的步骤。我们每个人对不同的因素有不同侧重，也许在不同的时候会考虑择业规划的不同方面。进行择业规划，要收集有关我们自身以及职业的信息资料，估计采取各种举动可能出现的结果，最后做出我们认为有吸引力并且可行的选择。

2 许多观察家指出学生在择业规划方面不是很在行。他们列出了以下事实：1）大部分学生选择职业的范围很窄；2）多达40%至60%的学生选择专业性的职业，而实际上只有15%至18%的从业人员在做专业性的工作；3）男青年对文书、销售以及服务性行业兴趣索然，尽管这些领域会提供许多就业机会；4）多达三分之一的学生说不出选择什么职业好。

3 欧文·贾尼斯和利昂·曼在他们的《决策》一书中指出，许多人的决策方式存在严重缺陷，而这些问题似乎与人们处理问题的模式有关。第一个缺陷是自满。有些人对于要费心思考虑的择业信息置之不理，这就是自满的表现。有些人采取“这不会影响我”或“这永远也不会发生”的态度，这就是以自满作为支配地位的行为模式。当然，对于那些不决定成败的决策，自满是可以的，但在做职业方面的决策时，来不得自满。

4 人们在决策方式上存在的第二个缺陷是消极回避。每当面临抉择而又自认为找不到合适的解决方法时，一些人或想入非非或做白日梦，以此来保持平静。有些学生没有考虑到职业抉择会产生的影响，往往采取文过饰非（对自己的行为所作的解释虽能自我满足但却是错误的，以此来欺骗自己）或者拖延（推迟或耽搁）的态度。面对现状也许会令人焦急不安，但认真考虑一下各种方案也能给人宽慰。

5 第三个缺陷是过份地提心吊胆。当人们面对职业选择而又感到没有足够时间找到解决方法时，会感到惊慌失措。他们紧张地寻找各种就业机会，然后采取匆忙的决定，忽视了这样的选择会带来的后果，也忽视了其他的择业机会。惊慌失措的人往往会思路不清，缺乏逻辑。

6 最好的做法就是眼观六路，耳听八方。当人们确信以下三点时，会做出机敏的决策：1）应该做出选择；2）自己能找到解决问题的办法；3）有足够的时间。这样，学生才能够有效地寻求各种可能的职业，仔细地掂量每一种可能性，并且制定出应变计划，以便应付各种风险。

7 以下是择业规划的关键步骤：

8 1．研究自我。这是择业规划的关键所在。了解自己是怎样一个人，看重什么以及想成为什么样的人，这些是整个择业规划的依据。在研究自我的过程中，你审视自己的长处与弱点，自己的目标以及自身发展的方向。对自己的了解使你能够设想哪些职业最符合你的个性、兴趣、能力和目标。所有的职业抉择都要求我们既要了解自己又要了解有关工作，并把这两方面的情况结合起来(加以考虑)。

9 2．把自己的事业目标写下来。要把自己事业发展的设想归纳起来。一个切实可行的做法是，把这些设想按照你一生的各个时间段一一写下来。写作过程迫使你理清思路，并认识到那些模糊、不成熟的想法。这会使你对自己的发展前途有新的了解，并有助于你看清新的关系、模式及方向，或者明确你在考虑自己事业发展方面还有哪些不到之处。

10 3．定期地与他人一起审视你的规划与所取得的进展。不时地估量一下自己的情形，考虑下一步该采取什么步骤。评估一下自己的进步并计划下面的步骤，这有助于你应对要经历的变化以及劳动力市场的变化。与你的大学辅导员、父母与朋友探讨你的计划，这有助于你明确目标，改进择业规划，或使计划得以实施。

11 4．如果选择的职业不适合你，可以重新开始。如今，越来越多的男男女女在变换职业，或者重新开始一份对他们更有吸引力的职业。其中许多人一旦发现自己所从事的行业不尽人意，就重新参加培训以谋求其它职业。这些新的职业常常是他们年轻时所忽视的，或者是由于当时的经济或别的原因而没有机会从事的。

12 社会学家们说改变职业几乎没有“走下坡路”的，大部分都是按传统的关注“往高处走”的。社会已不再像过去那样把跳槽看成是一种“不安分”、可耻的事了。

13 任何年龄段的人都有可能换工作和改职业。据估计, 20岁到25岁年龄段的男性中多达四分之一的人更换职业。而在25岁到44岁的年龄段，该比例大约是八分之一。

14 择业规划并不能保证你将来所面临的所有问题、困难或决策形势都能得到解决或变得容易。没有任何妙方能做到这一点。但是，择业规划能够帮助你面对或更好地处理新的问题，诸如决定是否要接受某方面的教育或培训，是否要更换工作，还能帮助你分析所面临的困境或与某人交往中所存在的困难。

15 没有人能预见我们任何一个人的未来。未来的一些社会、情感、道德等方面要考虑的因素是无法预见的。但是这个往往不尽人意的现代世界给予了我们一个最重要的教训，那就是进步来自于规划。对自己职业的无知并不是一种福气，理智比机遇和命运更重要。尽管没有一种万无一失的方法能保证我们的择业规划成功，但是要打造自己未来的事业，有些事是你现在就能做的。

暑期打工计划

1 假设你知道自己大学毕业后想干什么——现今，如果进了大学你还没选中一种职业，也许会被看成目光短浅——你早在毕业前就应该考虑找一份工作了。

2 哪些公司或机构会有你想要的工作呢? 假定你的专业是英文或历史，你想要写一部了不起的小说，那么你需要一份工作来支付生活和教育费用。你必须从一系列的可能性中进行选择，就像你从个人电脑屏幕的―菜单‖中挑一个选项一样。你可能有下列选项：A．到一家出版公司工作

B. 给一家科技公司当笔杆子

C. 到一家公关公司工作

D. 读研究生先不做决定

E．其他

3 假如你选中A，有一个好主意，就是最好在大学期间就向十几家出版社写信，请求与人事主任面谈。假如你碰巧有个熟人是编辑, 而他愿意见你，那样的话敢情更好。

4 要想方设法争取面试机会。在面试前你应该熟悉这家公司，而面试目的是向人事经理表达自己在这家公司工作的兴趣。你可以打听是否能做暑期工(可能的话，要有酬劳)或实习生。在很多情况下实习生有少量薪水，但没有报酬的情况也有。

5 在人生的这一阶段，找一个能促进未来事业的暑期工作很重要。如果在自己的专业领域找不到工作，那么你可以选另一类暑期工作——救生员、房屋油漆工、园林工、女招待、或者零售店或超场的工作人员。这些工作通常薪酬优厚，你可以存下足够的钱应付大学里的很多开销；但这些工作可能无助于你的择业规划，你必须在这两个方面权衡一下。任何一个需要你付出艰苦努力以及要求有一定责任心的暑期工作，写在你的简历上都是好的。要是这份工作与将来的事业相关，你的简历看起来自然就更吸引人。

6 有一天，在上下班乘坐的火车上，我坐在两位女中学生的前面。其中一个女孩对另一

个说：“我上大学不会花我父亲一分钱。至少我觉得不会。”她解释说，周末、暑假、圣诞节和春假她都在一家餐馆当服务员。她的小费很可观，她已存下了一万美元。她计划上拉特格斯大学, 住在家里走读。如果她在大学期间继续打工，她估计不用借债就能毕业并上研究生院。

7 我在大学期间开始寻找暑期工作的时候，我发现除餐馆外唯一愿意雇我的单位是法林百货公司——波士顿的一家大百货公司，它在科德角开了家夏季分店，我家就在那儿度假。我在大学一年级时，去过马萨诸塞州北安普敦的分店，是全年营业的。我申请在周六以及接下来的暑假当售货员，当场就被录用了。那年夏天，北安普敦分店经理负责管理科德角分店的夏季营业，她要我过去做营业员。

8 大学期间, 我都为法林公司在科德角的分店工作，包括暑期、学期当中的周六和大减价的日子，赚取了我整个大学期间的生活支出。冬季法林公司在我校校报上刊登广告，我为其构思编写广告词，一位绘画专业的学生按我的设想配图。当我读到大四的时候，我知道自己不想从事零售业，但它是我未来谋生的应急手段。我在与商店经理的谈话中了解到，如果我找不到报刊记者的工作，我可以在法林公司培训小组得到一个职位，并以此为跳板从事写作。

Part Two Reading-Centered Activities

In-Class Reading

I. Pre-Reading

Samples

1) I t’s a job which requires many skills in dealing with people. For example, they should have a very good attitude towards people and provide good service for those who come to their office. Their main task involves doing paperwork in the office, answering phone calls and helping people go through formalities. They have a steady salary, and lead a comparatively leisurely life. They don’t have to go on business trips very often. They go to work at 9 in the morning, and get back home at 5 in the afternoon, and they are also called nine-to-fivers. They are not fired easily because they are employed by the government. Not many people would like to take the job before, but now it’s very popular. People even have to take and pass tests to get employed, and the competition is tough. The government keeps raising the salary of these people partly an attempt to keep them from corruption.

(Answer: government office worker, or civil servant)

2) First of all, I am working very hard on my required courses, especially English. To pass CET band 4 and 6 is a must for a better job. In the English class, I am very active in group discussions because I know getting the certificate of CET is not enough. What really counts is my ability to use English. I am also involved in some social work in the university in order to get myself prepared for serving society, so that I can form a good relationship with my colleagues and business partners in my future work. Warm-heartedness is also a very important attribute for my future career. I participated in some money-raising activities to help those victims of floods and earthquakes. If possible, I would also learn to drive. Having a driver’s license will enable me to have a better chance in the job market, I think. Well, it seems that I

have a lot to do to get ready for the future.

3. Teaching tips

The teacher may organize the interview in the following way:

1) Choose an interview panel of three or four students. Choose three students for the panel to interview for the job of a store detective. Hold the interviews. When they are over, the panel

should discuss the qualifications of the applicants and choose the one they think is best.

2) Ask the class to talk about the interviews. Ask questions such as:

Do you agree with the panel’s decision?

If you were a member of the panel, which job applicant would you choose, why?

Were the interviews fair?

How could the applicants have done better?

Samples

—I agree wit h the panel’s decision. First, the applicant is very confident in answering the questions and he knows what he is supposed to do. Second, he is quick-minded and very strong. Third, he is interested in the job and is ready to dedicate himself to the job. Finally, he has previous experience in working as a store detective.

—I don’t agree with the panel’s decision. I think the panel puts too much emphasis on the appearance of the applicants. I think Applicant B is much more suited for the job. He has a warmer personality. He can be a good store detective as well as a good staff member, because I don’t think the sole responsibility for a detective is to check on the shoppers. He should also help the customers when possible.

—Generally speaking, I think the panel has made a wise decision and chosen the right one for the job. Yet I think the applicant could have done better by not being so conceited and boastful about his own ability. After all, people cannot trust too much what a person says about himself without further investigation. What’s more, team spirit is very important. If he is not easy-going and feels too good about himself, it will be difficult for others to cooperate with him. I also doubt whether he will listen to the boss.

6) While you should not dwell on your past, taking the time to review and reflect on the path you have taken/spending some time reviewing and thinking about the path you have taken will help you plan for the future.

2. Which Career Is the Right One for You?

Sample

STEP ONE: I chose Nature.

STEP TWO:

Scientific: scientist, professor, geneticist, technician, architect, researcher, engineer

Social: nurse, lawyer, doctor, dentist, policeman, taxi-driver, bus-driver, teacher

General service: waiter, librarian, porter, bus-driver, counselor, civil servant,

Artistic: graphic designer, painter, writer, poet, photographer, film-director Computational: accountant, statistician, stock broker, cashier, mathematician

Practical: tiler, mechanic, carpenter, plumber, tailor, cook, knitter

Nature: gardener, vet, farmer, fisherman, animal keeper, landscaper

Outdoor/Active: postman, construction worker, guide, sailor, policeman, athlete

STEP THREE:

I’d like to be a gardener. Maybe it sounds strange to you, but that idea appeals to me. To be a gardener, I can have a chance to know more about plants, because I am always interested in all sorts of plants, and I’d like to know where my food comes from and how it grows. I enjoy taking pictures of beautiful flowers and plants. By working outside, I can breathe fresh air, smell the pleasant scent of flowers, and look at the beautiful blue sky. How intoxicating!

That’s my ideal life! It’s also a simple life. I hate to deal with complicated interpersonal relationships as one does while working in offices and companies. What I am required to do is

only to take care of the plants which I love. Besides, gardening can be a hobby to share with family members and friends, a stress reliever or an escape from the day-to-day grind.

4. What Matters Most?

Sample

STEP ONE & STEP TWO

(The following factors have been listed according to their importance):

? a high salary;

?lots of perks (工资以外的实物或好处), e.g. a company car, reimbursing travel expenses, vacation;

?an opportunity, through your job, to serve others in the community/in society;

?good promotion prospects;

? a pleasant, friendly working atmosphere;

?short working hours—not more than 35 hours a week;

? a good boss;

?pleasant colleagues;

?career orientation;

?suitable for one’s natural/professional talents/skills;

?interesting tasks;

?good safety record;

?clean environment;

?restaurant in the building;

?good location (near bus stop, highway, metro, etc.);

?opportunity for travel, especially going abroad;

?opportunities for professional development/job training;

?daycare facilities;

?school nearby.

STEP THREE: I will explain why I list ―a high salary, perks and serving the society‖ as the three most important factors contributing to my job satisfaction. Even though we do not work to live, still, it’s a very realistic and materialistic world. Without money, we can do nothing.

After we graduate, we have to repay our parents’support for our education, to make their lives better. Also, we have to buy or rent our own apartments. Very soon, perhaps we will have a child. How can we support the family? Only by working hard and earning a good

salary. But of course, money is not my only pursuit. Career satisfaction also involves serving the society. I can derive a lot of pleasure from the fact that I can use my knowledge and ability to make contributions to the society. So it’s really a win-win situation in my opinion.

5. Are Summer Jobs Necessary?

Sample

1) I think the following jobs are not practical in China: 1) baby-sitting, and 2) opening a

lemonade stand. The following jobs are practical: 3) working in the library or in the cafeteria, 4) tutoring, 5) being a waiter or waitress and 6) being a teaching assistant.

I’d like to say something about why being a baby-sitter is not practical in China. The main reason is that China has adopted one-child-per-family policy. Very often the only child is the so-called ―prince‖ or ―princess‖ in the family. On the one hand, parents and grandparents dote on the only child so much that they don’t feel at ease to allow a young student to take care of them. On the other hand, we students are also the only child in our families. We know nothing about baby-sitting and cannot be expected to be able to take good care of other people’s kids. What’s more, our parents believe students’major responsibility at school is to study. They don’t think we should spend our precious time baby-sitting instead of studying. These are the reasons why I think it is not practical for college students to be baby-sitters in China.

I think being a tutor is not only practical but also a very good job. Many college

students use their summer time or weekends to tutor middle-school students. They teach kids either English or Math, two very important subjects. The reasons why college students can be tutors are as follows: First, they like to be tutors because they enjoy teaching what they excel at while receiving pay. Also, their parents also think it is a good job. And, high school students like to be tutored by college students because they have more in common in terms of hobbies and interests. Parents also like college students to tutor their kids because they are good examples for their kids. What’s more, they pay less to a student tutor than to a teacher tutor. That’s why many college students like to be tutors.

2) Advantages:

—enable one to earn some money to pay for college expenses and part of their tuition fees; —help one to gain some work experience;

—help one to compare different jobs and form a clear idea about their future career;

—help one to learn about the outside world;

—help to apply and practice what he/she learns at the university;

—help one to gain additional training;

—help one to make contacts, meet new people;

—help one to learn to work with other people;

—help one to serve the community or help others.

Disadvantages:

—distract one’s attention from studies;

—make one become too practical;

—make one become money-oriented;

—spoil one’s vacation, which could be spent on relaxation, traveling, etc.

—cause one to spend more tim e away from one’s family;

—tiring, unhealthy work conditions;

—prevent one from taking summer courses.

新视野1课后翻译题答案

原文：孔子是中国历史上著名的思想家、教育家，是儒家学派（Confucianism）的创始人，被尊称为古代的“圣人”（sage）。他的言论和生平活动记录在《论语》（The Analects）一书中。《论语》是中国古代文化的经典著作，对后来历代的思想家、文学家、政治家产生了很大影响。不研究《论语》，就不能真正把握中国几千年的传统文化。孔子的很多思想，尤其是其教育思想，对中国社会产生了深远的影响。在21世纪的今天，孔子的学说不仅受到中国人的重视，而且也越来越受到整个国际社会的重视。翻译：Confucius was a great thinker and educator in Chinese history. He was the founder of Confucianism and was respectfully referred to as an ancient "sage". His words and life story were recorded in The Analects. An enduring classic of ancient Chinese culture, The Analects has had a great influence on the thinkers, writers, and statesmen that came after Confucius. Without studying this book, one could hardly truly understand the thousands-of-years' traditional Chinese culture. Much of Confucius' thought, especially his thought on education, has had a profound influence on Chinese society. In the 21st century, Confucian thought not only retains the attention of the Chinese, but it also wins an increasing attention from the international community. Unit 2 原文： 原文：每年农历（Chinese lunar calendar）八月十五是我国的传统节日——中秋节（the Mid-Autumn Festival）。这时是一年秋季的中期，所以被称为中秋。中秋节的一项重要活动是赏月。夜晚，人们赏明月、吃月饼，共庆中秋佳节。中秋节也是家庭团圆的时刻，远在他乡的游子，会借此寄托自己对故乡和亲人的思念之情。中秋节的习俗很多，都寄托着人们对美好生活的热爱和向往。自2008年起，中秋节成为中国的法定节假日翻译：According to the Chinese lunar calendar, August 15 of every year is a traditional Chinese festival —the Mid-Autumn Festival. This day is the middle of autumn, so it is called Mid-Autumn. One of the important Mid-Autumn Festival activities is to enjoy the moon. On that night, people gather together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, looking up at the bright moon and eating moon cakes. The festival is also a time for family reunion. People living far away from home will express their feelings of missing their hometowns and families at this festival. There are many customs to celebrate the festival, all expressing people's love and hope for a happy life. Since 2008, the Mid-Autumn Festival has become an official national holiday in China 1 / 4
