英語范文背誦精華 14.1 Work and Careers
Sometimes we say that someone is a square peg in a round hole. This simly means that the person is not fit for the job he is doing because his interest and talent lie somewhere else. He may be a bookkeeper, but he really wants to be an actor or a mechanic.
In fact, many people in the world are "square pegs" , they are not doing the kind of work they should be doing for one reason or another. As a result they probably are not doing a very good job and certainly they are not happy.
Choosing the right career is very important. Most of us spend a great part of our lives at our jobs. Some of us have become very successful. why? Partly because they are very hardworking and highly intelligent, partly because they have a good family background or have dear ones who support them heart and soul,but mainly because they have chosen appropriate careers which match their talents and stimulate their interests. there are numerous examples to prove this. therefore, we should clearly understand what our talents are and how to bring them into full play; we should also clearly know what our personal interests are or where they lie. It is most impoytant to selsect careers in accordence with our talents and interests.
There are many careers open to each of us .Perhaps we like science. Then we might prepare ourselves to be chemists, physics, or biologists. Maybe our interests take us into the business world and such work as accounting, personal management , or public reations. Many persons find their place in government service. Teaching , newspaper work, medcine, engineering -----these and many other fields offer fascinating careers to persons with talent and training.
