這么多年來(lái)，中國(guó)英語(yǔ)一直被視為“啞巴英語(yǔ)”，而事實(shí)也是如此，對(duì)于很多托?？忌鷣?lái)說(shuō)，托?？谡Z(yǔ)是他們的短板。那么今天就和出國(guó)留學(xué)網(wǎng)的小編來(lái)來(lái)了解一下托福獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)：對(duì)于選擇大學(xué)專(zhuān)業(yè)的建議。
A friend of yours wants to go to university next year but cannot decide on a major field of study. What advice would you give your friend to help make this decision？
你的一個(gè)朋友明年要去讀大學(xué)，你對(duì)選擇專(zhuān)業(yè)有什么建議？
This is the question that plagues thousands of newly minted college students each year， who have nightmares of walking off the stage at graduation directly into an unemployment line. So， here are my tips for him or her.
First of all， curiosity won＇t kill you. Students and parents alike should pepper their college with questions about individual majors. Speak with officials in the career service offices and the departments themselves to learn as much as you can about the major before you commit.
Secondly， make sure it＇s your passion. Many students get stuck on the idea that they have to have a clear vocational goal in order to choose a major. And students who don＇t follow their hearts will ultimately hurt their chances of a successful and satisfying career in the long term. So， choose a major that you are passionate about， even if you＇re unsure about where it might lead， and what starting salary it might yield. Such factors won＇t matter in the long run.
這個(gè)問(wèn)題每年困擾著成千上萬(wàn)的新生大學(xué)生，他們的噩夢(mèng)是在畢業(yè)典禮上直接走到失業(yè)線(xiàn)。這是我給他或她的建議。
首先，好奇心不會(huì)殺死你。學(xué)生和家長(zhǎng)都應(yīng)該對(duì)自己的專(zhuān)業(yè)提出各種各樣問(wèn)題。與職業(yè)服務(wù)辦公室的人和自己的系里的人談?wù)?，在你做出承諾選擇之前，盡可能多地多了解和自己專(zhuān)業(yè)有關(guān)專(zhuān)的信息業(yè)的知識(shí)。
第二，確保它是你的激情。許多學(xué)生陷入這樣一種觀念：他們必須有明確的職業(yè)目標(biāo)來(lái)選擇專(zhuān)業(yè)。那些不遵守自己的意愿的學(xué)生，最終將損害他們成功和滿(mǎn)意的職業(yè)生涯的機(jī)會(huì)。所以，選擇一個(gè)你感興趣的專(zhuān)業(yè)，即使你不確定它會(huì)帶你到哪兒，它可能會(huì)產(chǎn)生什么樣的起薪。因?yàn)檫@些因素從長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)來(lái)看無(wú)關(guān)緊要。
