So many jobs to choose from!

The last year of high school is a time for hard work and also a time for reflection. At this time, you have to start thinking about the future and what you want to do after graduation. In this article, I’m going to discuss some of the options available to you and whether popular careers, more unusual jobs or everyday jobs are better suited to you.

When choosing a career, you should consider all the aspects of a job. Some job may seem very dull but are very important to society while others can appear very exciting but are actually very difficult and boring. One example is the so called ‘glamorous job’ of being a model or an actor. Would you like to be famous, wear diamonds, go to parties relax on cushions in private jets or helicopters? In reality, these people have to spend long hours traveling, with all their baggage packed in suitcase or trunks, and only a very small number of them are successful. Many actors, actresses and models hold ordinary, less glamorous jobs, often working as waiters or waitresses, in order to support themselves. Meanwhile, those who are successful and famous have to deal with constant media attention. They have to be very thick-skinned to deal with all kinds of criticism. They’re also under huge pressure to appear young and beautiful. Most actors and models are always on a diet, and many have painful surgery to make their faces and bodies look more attractive. It doesn’t seem that glamorous now, does it? Maybe a career as a local grocer of flour- covered baker would be a better option.

Other popular professions for young people include careers in law or business. Many people have ambitions to become successful as a lawyer or business person, but they don’t consider the stress and pressure that come with these jobs. These can be well-paid and interesting jobs, but you also have to very long hours. Also, sometimes as a boss in the business world, you have to make different decisions that hurt people, and being a lawyer can involve facing tough moral issues.

In contrast, some people find more unusual jobs that are better suited to their talents and interests. A few years ago, when I was hiking in the Grand Canyon National Park in the USA, I met a man who had a very unusual job. He was living by a stream in a tent surrounded by technical equipment, and his only neighbours were the birds and squirrels in the nearby trees. His job was to check the noise pollution in the park zones. He loved camping, and his job was like a holiday for him. It was very easy to see that he enjoyed doing his job. There are many other people doing unusual jobs, such as a beer taster at a brewery, who probably consumes one liter of beer per year, a person who design fireworks displays and a person who tests rides for amusement parks. All these people love their jobs, which might not be popular, but are interesting regardless.

Similarly, many ordinary jobs may look dull, but they are as essential as water to our society. As we go through our daily lives, we meet different kinds of people——shop assistants, who sell us things in shops; drivers, who drive trams and buses transporting us around the city; barbers, who cut our hair in barbershops and cleaners, who clear up our rubbish. These jobs may not seem very attractive, but they

are all important. For example, if no one was to collect the rubbish, the streets would soon become very dirty and unpleasant, the number of rats would increase, and diseases would spread. These people, who perform such ordinary but vital tasks, allow people to go about their daily lives.

When you think about your future career, remember that some glamorous jobs can be rather difficult and that some ordinary jobs can be quite important.

All of them together, though, help society function.

高中的最后一年时间的努力也思考的时间。在这个时候,你必须要考虑未来的打算和你毕业后想干什么。在这篇文章中,我将讨论几个可供选择,是否受欢迎你事业,更不平常的工作或日常工作更适合你。

在选择一个职业,你应该考虑各方面的工作。些事似乎很乏味,但非常重要的社会,而另一些人则会显得非常令人兴奋,但是其实是很困难和无聊。其中一个例子就是所谓的“魅力成为模特的工作”要么是一名演员。你想成为著名的,穿钻石,去参加聚会放松一下在私人喷气式飞机或直升机垫吗?事实上,这些人们不得不花费很长时间,他们所有的旅行的行李装在箱子和树干,只有少数的他们是成功的。许多演员和模型,更少的迷人举行普通的工作,通常作为,服务员,为了自己养活自己。同时,那些成功和著名的要处理不断新闻媒体的关注。他们必须非常脸皮厚处理各种各样的批评。他们也将不得不承受巨大的压力显得年轻美丽。多数演员和模式,一直在节食,许多人痛苦的外科手术,使自己的容颜和体态看起来更有吸引力。它似乎并不是迷人的现在,不是吗?也许本地杂货店工作覆盖面粉,贝克将是一个更好的选择。

其他常见的职业生涯为年轻的人群包括法律和商业活动。许多人有野心成为成功的律师或商人,却没有考虑到这些压力是这些任务。这些可以收入优厚、有趣的工作,但是你必须同时时间很长。同时,有时候是老板在商业世界里,你必须使不同的决定,而作为伤害了别人的律师能涉及面对艰难的道德问题。

相反,一些人发现一些不寻常的工作更适合于自己的才智和利益。几年前,当

我还是徒步旅行在大峡谷国家公园在美国工作,我遇到了一个人,他有一个非常不寻常的工作。他住在帐篷的流技术设备包围,他惟一的邻居都是鸟类,松鼠在附近的树。他的工作是检查在公园里的噪音污染区。他喜欢露营,他的工作就是喜欢假日。很容易看出他喜欢做他的工作。还有很多其他的人做了不同寻常的工作,如杯啤酒品酒师在啤酒厂,有可能消耗一个升啤酒的人,每年设计烟火和一个人是谁作的口味鉴定骑上娱乐场。所有这些人都热爱自己的工作,这可能不是很受欢迎,但很有趣不管。

同样的,许多普通工作都看起来枯燥乏味的,但是它们与水很重要,因为我们的社会。当我们穿过我们的日常生活里,我们各种各样的人——店员,在商店里把东西卖给我们,司机,开车的有轨电车和公共汽车运输我们参观那城,理发师,他把我们的头发,与清洁发廊里用的垃圾清理。这些工作看 …… 此处隐藏：3321字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
