Choosing a job—something you’re thinking of doing for the rest of your working life—isn’t always easy but necessary. Plans for your future job will have a great influence on your whole life. 16
Know yourself well.
It’s true that things like pay are important, but don’t let money lead you in the wrong direction. Firstly, follow your heart and your personality—if you’re not very outgoing, don’t go for a sales job, even if the pay is good. 17 If you do well in getting along with children, to be a teacher may be a fantastic choice.
18
Generally speaking, people get more satisfaction out of their jobs if they feel they are doing something valuable for others. It doesn’t have to be charity work—it could be a job that helps other people, like being a cleaner. Just imagine what our city would be like without cleaners.
Your first decision isn’t forever.
Some lucky people get it on their first try—they choose a job, find they love it and stick at it. 19 So remember you’re allowed to change your mind! There’s no need to let it worry you for years: Maybe you’ve got three or four possible things you’d like to do, so come to a decision and try one—if you don’t like it, try another one.
20 The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today. Remember to be responsible for yourself when you are young.
A. Do something of value.
B. But it isn’t always like that.
C. And it is always like that.
D. Here are some suggestions for you.
E. Secondly, think about what you are good at.
F. Making a clear plan for your future job is meaningful.
G. Sometimes it is also full of regrets.

选择一份工作——一份你打算在余下的工作生涯中从事的工作——并不总是容易的，但却是必要的。你对未来工作的规划会对你的一生产生很大的影响。16
**充分了解自己**。
诚然，薪水之类的事情很重要，但不要让金钱把你引向错误的方向。首先，追随你的内心和你的性格——如果你不是很外向，就不要选择销售工作，即使薪水很高。17 如果你在与孩子相处方面做得很好，成为一名教师可能是一个很棒的选择。
18
一般来说，如果人们觉得自己在为他人做有价值的事情，他们会从工作中获得更多的满足感。它不一定是慈善工作——它可以是一份帮助他人的工作，比如当一名清洁工。试想一下，如果没有清洁工，我们的城市会是什么样子。
**你的第一个决定不是一成不变的**。
有些幸运的人第一次尝试就找到了（理想的工作）——他们选择了一份工作，发现自己喜欢它并坚持下去。19 所以记住，你有权改变主意！没有必要为此烦恼多年：也许你有三、四件可能想做的事情，所以做个决定并尝试其中一件——如果你不喜欢它，就尝试另一件。
20 对明天最好的准备就是今天做到最好。记住，年轻时要对自己负责。
A. 做有价值的事。
B. 但情况并不总是这样。
C. 而且情况总是这样。
D. 这里有一些给你的建议。
E. 其次，想想你擅长什么。
F. 为你未来的工作制定一个清晰的计划是有意义的。
G. 有时它也充满遗憾。

当美国人在家时，他们通常喜欢把空闲时间花在各种各样的DIY（自己动手做）项目上。也许这和我们中国人有点不同。当我们中国人在家时，我们喜欢通过看电视或会友来消遣。但美国人喜欢自己动手做一些工作来打发时间。他们认为这既有益又有趣。在他们看来，自己动手做不仅能帮助他们开发大脑，还能节省很多时间。对于一项非常大的工作，他们在实施之前会再三考虑。这对他们的大脑很有好处，会让他们越来越聪明。一些美国人住得离服务中心很远。当东西出故障时，他们得等很长时间才能找到合适的服务。在这种情况下，他们愿意自己处理。所以在美国，自己动手做非常流行。
