A report indicating that one in eleven college graduates have been jobless for a year has raised public concern and caused heated discussions among the country’s Internet community.
The educationist
In a blog, Xiong Bingqi, vice-president of the 21st Century Education Research Center, quoted a “2012 Graduate Employment Report”, which showed that 570,000 of 6.8 million college graduates in 2011 remained jobless one year after graduation. Among them, more than 100,000 neither go to school or work nor receive vocational skills and rely on support from their parents. This is known as the NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training) group.
Xiong blamed university education for not preparing students for China’s fast-developing society and high demanding employers.
The lack of career planning and aimless job searching are two reasons why so many college graduates cannot get work, with many more developing a job-hopping habit, he said.
Netizens
Jack, head of an advertising agency:“Companies want to hire a person who can get the job done on the first day of work, but few graduates can. I was tired of listening to job applicants and how they obtained their first-class scholarships and successfully led the student union for four years, only to find out they do not know how to send a fax.”
Jingjin: “College graduates may know theories from books, but they don’t know how to put them into everyday work.”
Zhang Chunxia, who works for the career center of Beijing Foreign Studies University: “the facility has introduced courses on career planning and development. It has also invited alumni with established careers to deliver speeches to prepare students.”
“I find those who work as university counselors and volunteer teachers, or start their own businesses are more confident than their peers as they know where their strengths lie.”
Wu Ying, a graduate of Beijing Foreign Studies University, returned school this September to pursue a master’s degree after being NEET for one year. She said: “It’s a vicious circle. You cannot find a job so you go back to school. Then you know less about the job market and still can’t get a job when you graduate for the second time.”
Li Ming: Many college graduates who grew up post-1980s have a narrower definition of a “good job” than the older generation. Many would rather stay at home jobless if they failed to get stable or high-paid job.
Valderfield: “I was shocked when learning that more than 3,000 college graduates applied for a street cleaner’s job in Harbin, just to become an employee at a government-affiliated institution.”
Xiangzuounique: “If young people only consider government jobs as secure and decent, they lose an opportunity to enjoy life.”
Zhong Shan, a graduate from Fudan University: “I’m opting for a gap year after graduation as a buffer to job-hunting. I went to Sichuan Province in western China to teach rural children. It enriches my experience, but the reality is that I still have to face the fierce competition in the labor market in the near future.”

不比父辈们坚守在岗位上一呆就是几十年,现在的年轻人们热衷“跳槽”。小编之前看不太惯跳槽,但当进入社会之后,发现每个人跳槽是有原因的,可能因为工资,可能因为环境,可能因为单纯的喜好,只要不要太过频繁,还是可以接受的。

My View on Job-Hopping
Job-hopping, or frequent change of jobs, is becoming increasingly common in China today. As the economy grows, more opportunities for employment are appearing than before. The result is that people, especially young people, are tempted to change jobs frequently, seeking higher salaries or more interesting positions.
Nevertheless, many people prefer to stay in their old jobs. This is partly because they feel loyal to their work units, and partly because they dislike the idea of having to spend much time training for a new job. In addition, although a new job may offer higher pay or more opportunities for promotion, it may be located far from home and be inconvenient to reach.
I think it is a good thing for the workforce to be flexible, so that new demands for personnel can be satisfied quickly. However, if a person changes jobs too often, he or she will cause losses to the employing units. Moreover, frequent job-hopping prevents a person from gaining valuable job experience and developing good work habits.
My Favorite Hobby
1.我有许多爱好,其中我最喜欢读书。
2.我喜欢读书有三个原因。
3.读书已经成为我生活的一部分。
I have many hobbies, such as reading, skating, and watching TV. But reading is my favorite hobby.
I like reading for three reasons. First of all, books introduce me to a new world, which is colourful and without time and space limit, Through reading, I can trace back. to ancient Egypt, the cradle of human civilization. It can bring myself to the United states, a glamorous land I have been longing to visit. Secondly, reading can better myself by showing me a new horizon. In the past years, most of my knowledge has been obtained from books. I have learned from many people by reading about their ideas on scithee, politics, life and society. Thirdly, reading bridge the gap between my dream and my goal. In ordcr to succeed in my career in the future, I must keep reading, thinking and practising.
Reading has become part of my life. Every day, I spend some time reading books, newspapcrs and magazines. At night, I can hardly go to steep without a novel in my hand.
我的爱好
我有许多爱好,譬如:读书、滑冰、看电视,读书是我最喜欢的。
我喜爱读书有三个原因:首先,书籍带我进入一个新世界,这个世界五颜六色没有时空限制。通过读书,我可以追溯到占代埃及——这个人类文明的摇篮。书能把我带到美国,那个我一直想去游览的充满魅力的地方。其次,读书能够在我面前展现新的空间,使我完美。在过去的几年中,我的大多数知识都是通过书本获得的。通过阅读,我向许多人学习了他们在科学、政治、生活和社会等方面的思想。再次,读书在我的梦想和目标之间架起厂一座桥梁。为了在将来的工作生涯中获得成功,我要坚持读书、思维和实践。
读书已经成为我生活的一部分。每天我花一些时间读书看报,读杂志。晚上,没有一书在手我是很难入睡的。
Self-employment
One of the advantages of being selfemployed is that the profit the business makes belongs to the owner. If the self-employed person succeeds in business, he has the chance to earn a great deal of money. The profit earned is the reward for the owner’s effort, ability and creativity. Thus, a second advantage is that a person’s intelligence and abilities have a direct effect on the earnings. A third advantage of being self-employed is that a person can control his working hours.While not all self-employed people are completely free, most of them have more control over this area than the salaried people.
However, being self-employed is not without problems.First, being one’s own boss places the responsibility directly on that individual’s shoulders. Everyone has some weaknesses in some things. These weaknesses will affect how successful a self-employed person is. Second, though the self-employed can earn considerable profits with a successful business, losses can force them out of business and sometimes, place them in debt. A third disadvantage concerns income security. Self- employed people have no guaranteed wage. Their earnings can vary greatly, depending on business conditions. Salaried people, however, can generally count on continued earnings.In addition, salaried people often enjoy fringe benefits that mean greater peace of mind. One of these benefits may be in- surance paid for by the employer that continues the employee’s salary in the event of sickness or accident while many self-employed people do not have such protection.
自我创业
自我创业的好处之一是生意盈利归业主所有。如果创业者生意成功,他有可能挣很多钱。这些挣来的利润是对业主努力、能力和创造力的回报。 因此,自我创业的第二个好处是一个人的才智和能力直接反映在收入上。 自我创业的第三个优势是自己做老板能够控制自己的工作时间。 虽然不是所有的创业者都有完全的自由,但是相对于工薪族来说,他们大多数人在这方面有更多的支配权。
但是,自我创业并不是一帆风顺的事。首先,做自己的老板把责任直接放到了个人的肩上。每个人在某些事上都会有某些弱点,而这些弱点会对创业者的成功产生影响。其次,自己做老板时,虽然一单成功的生意可能会带来很大的盈利,可一旦失败就可能造成破产,有时甚至负债累累。第三个弊端涉及收入的稳定性。创业者没有稳定的工资。依据生意的状况,他们的收入浮动很大。而工薪族通常可以依靠持续的工资,同时享受着额外福利,这意味着他们心态上更加平和。其中一项福利就是由雇主为雇员支付保险,以保障他们在生病或遇到意外的情况下还能继续领到工资。相比之下,很多创业者就没有这种保障了

College Graduates Working as Community Workers
Nowadays,some college graduates choose to work in grassroots communities after graduation.I think it is a good practice which can benefit not only themselves but also the whole society.
On the one hand,college graduates can contribute a lot to the development of the community.As we all know.the staff members in the communities are mainly made up of retired workers before,most of whom are not well educated.If college graduates can work in the communities.they can introduce some new concepts and methods to the community.On the other hand.graduates Can also gain a lot from working as community workers.Community is the smallest unit in the society.Students can give full play to their abilities because they have to deal with various people and solve many thorny issues.Besides.one can also improve his practical skills,such as interpersonal skills and organizing ability.
In my opinion,learning practical skills is of great importance for a graduate.Therefore,it is a wise choice for college graduates to have an experience as community workers.
Every year, there are tens of thousands of people looking for a job. For a successful job search, job interview is the most important part. But how to prepare for the job interview? Here are some important tips.
每年都有成千上万的人在找工作。对于一个成功的求职,面试是最重要的部分。但是如何准备面试呢?这里有一些重要的建议。
Firstly, find a company you want to work for. Then, your understanding of the company will make the interviewers know that you value this opportunity so much and let them employ you. Secondly, review your resume and imagine what the interviews may ask you. Then think about how you should answer the questions. Thirdly, carefully pick out what to wear. Since the job interview is the only time to sell yourself, you ought to make a good impression on the interviewers. Wear tidy suits and keep your shoes clean. Last, have a good sleep before the night of the job interview, because no interviewers will like an interviewee who looks tired and exhausted.
首先,找到你想要去工作的公司。之后,你对公司的了解会让面试官知道你很珍惜这个机会,从而让他们雇用你。第二,检查一下你的简历,想象面试官会问你什么问题。然后想想你应该如何回答这些问题。第三,仔细挑选穿衣。既然面试是推销自己的唯一机会,你应该给面试官留下一个好印象。穿着整洁的西装,保持鞋子干净。最后,在面试前一晚好好睡一觉,因为没有面试官会喜欢看起来疲惫的人。
If you can do well in above tips, I believe you will get into next round.
如果你能做好以上的建议,我相信你是可以进入复试的。
建议:
首先我们需要知道,该文主题是工作与家庭哪个更重要。面对这种无法选择的问题,我们需要采取一个中庸的态度,也就是无论是工作还是家庭,我们都得重视。然后分别阐述两者的重要性,最后再总结。

3、第二段,一一阐述。这种问题,可以先阐述工作的重要性,接着阐述家庭的重要性。
4、第三段,总结全文。说明两者都缺一不可,我们需要好好调节工作与家庭的关系。
参考例文:Career and family
When it comes to the opinion of career and family, people always hold different ideas. Some people deem it more important to pursue their career, while other people argue that family is the most important in one’s life.
On the one hand, there is no doubt that career plays a key role in our life. In the very first place, career gives us an aim to live on and makes our life fulfillment. Without career, much of our living time will be certainly boring. What’s more, career can provide us with a means to live on. Most people earn their income from a job to make a live. On the other hand, family is also anindispensable part of life, as many people will admit. Family is always regarded as a place where we can escape from pressure in life, and we can feel worm with family. In addition, we can obtain a sense of belonging to from family. Without it, anyone will feel lonely and desperate.
As far as I am concerned, career and family are not in opposition to each other. We can concentrate on our job when we are working, and we can spend a happy time with our family when we are off duty. Therefore they can enhance each other so that one’s life can become better and better.
Volunteers Needed

My View on Job-Hopping
Many people are inclined to do one job in their lives. In their opinions, people who change their jobs frequently are superficial and tactless. They believe that the only way to success is to stick to one job, for constant practice in a professional field helps make an txpert.
But there are still many people who don’t agree. They argue that change means progress. If you are not satisfied with your present job, of course you have the right to replace it with a more challenging and better paid one. Every change is a step to further success. This idea may be. the reason why they change their jobs so often.
For my part, I think it reasonable to change your job if you have a better opportuniry. But once you have found a position where you can fully display your ability, it is advisable to settle down to it and put all your efforts into it. Only in this way, can you get the true joy of achieving your goal.
