Choosing an Occupation

选择职业

One of the most important problems a young person faces is deciding what to do. There are some people, of course, who from the time they are six years old know that they want to be doctors or pilots or fire fighters, but the majority of us do not get around to making a decision about an occupation or career until somebody or something forces us to face the problem.

一个年轻人面对的重要问题之一就是决定从事什么样的工作。当然了有一些人从六岁大的时候就决定自己将来要当医生、飞行员或者消防员，但是我们中的大多数人并没有决定将来从事什么样的职业，直到有人或事情迫使我们面对这个问题。

Choosing an occupation takes time, and there are a lot of things you have to think about as you try to decide what you would like to do. You may find that you will have to take special courses to qualify for a particular kind of work, or you may find out that you will need to get actual work experience to gain enough knowledge to qualify for a particular job.

选择职业需要实践，当你去决定你将做什么的时候有很多事情你不得不考虑。你会发现为了胜任某种特定的工作你不得不去上一些专门的课程，或者你也会发现为了胜任某份工作你必须在实践中获得足够的知识。

Fortunately, there are a lot of people you can turn to for advice and help in making your decision. At most schools, there are teachers who are professionally qualified to give you detailed information about job qualifications. And you can talk over your ideas with family members and friends who are always ready to listen and to offer suggestions.

幸运的是，在你做出决定的时候你可以从很多人那里得到建议和帮助。在大多数学校里，关于职业的选择上教师很擅长于给出很详细的信息。你也可以和你的家人和朋友交流你自己的想法，他们会时刻准备倾听你的述说并提出他们的建议。
