現(xiàn)在是大學(xué)生
hunt jobs in the market.
找工作的旺季。
You may see a lot of graduates holding a variety of certificates
你或許看見過有大學(xué)生擁有許多的證書
indicating their versatile skills.
這些證書證明了他們在各個方面的能力。
Every college student knows that ability is important.
每一名大學(xué)生都知道能力很重要。
They would like to attend various training programs
他們會去參加各種培訓(xùn)課程
and apply for different certificates
申請各種各樣的證書
so that they are more competent.
這樣他們就能提升自己的能力。
However, can attending training programs
但是參加培訓(xùn)課程
and getting more certificates improve competence?
獲得更多的證書就能提升我們的能力嗎
As far as I am concerned,
我認為
the certificates do not really mean competence.
證書不意味著能力。
First of all, the certificates are simply several pieces of papers proving
首先這些證書只證明
that you have attended some training programs.
你參加過各種的考試培訓(xùn)。
Whether you are competent or not
不論你是否有能力
really depends upon your cleverness and experience.
人們都需要靠自己的聰明度和更多的經(jīng)驗來找工作。
For example, many English majors have passed the TEM-8,
例如許多英語專業(yè)的學(xué)生通過了專八
an English test specific for the language students.
這是一個專門為學(xué)習語言的學(xué)生準備的考試。
Does that mean your English is perfect once getting such a certificate?
擁有證書真就證明你的英語很好嗎
Not exactly.
事實上卻不是。
The fact is you may find, more often than not,
通常你會發(fā)現(xiàn)事實是
that many students speak broken English and write poor English.
許多學(xué)生的口語很差寫作很差。
The reason is that they may assume that a certificate can prove their English is very good.
原因是他們自認為通過考試就能夠證明自己的英語水平很高。
So they stop their daily exercises and training
所以他們停止了每天的訓(xùn)練
and rest on the satisfaction of getting their certificates.
并滿足于獲得證書。
Secondly, the ability must be obtained through hard work and long practice.
第二能力的提高是通過艱苦的努力和訓(xùn)練得來的。
The students should attach more importance to obtaining the ability
學(xué)生應(yīng)該重視的是能力的培養(yǎng)
rather than getting the certificates.
而不是獲得證書。
The social practices help them make the book knowledge become their own.
社會經(jīng)驗讓他們的知識真正成為自己的知識。
The certificates should stimulate them to study hard
證書能夠激勵他們更好的學(xué)習
and become more excellent and competent.
并讓他們變得更有能力。
As for the recruiting companies,
對用人單位來說
they prefer the students who can put their book knowledge into daily use,
他們喜歡的是那些能夠?qū)嶋H應(yīng)用知識的學(xué)生
which is far more practical than the certificates.
這些比證書更為有用。
Finally, the students should try to make themselves more marketable.
最后學(xué)生應(yīng)該讓自己變得更加出色。
They need to give up the unrealistic assumption
并能夠放棄那些不現(xiàn)實的想法
and realize the true fact.
實事求是。
To sum up, the certificates do not really mean competence.
總結(jié)證書不等于能力。
What we need to do is integrate the certificates with the development of our competence.
我們所需要的是那些既有證書又有能力的員工。
The two should go hand in hand to make us capable persons.
這兩個因素的結(jié)合才是最好的。
