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.

年輕人面臨的最重要的問題之一就是決定要做什么。當(dāng)然，有很多人從六歲開始就知道他們想成為醫(yī)生或者飛行員或者戰(zhàn)士。但是，大部分的人都不會設(shè)法去對職業(yè)或者事業(yè)做出決定，知道某些人或者某些事迫使我們?nèi)ッ鎸�這一問題。

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.

選擇職業(yè)是需要花時間的，在你試著決定你想要做什么的時候，你要考慮很多東西。你可能會發(fā)現(xiàn)你需要參加特殊課程以勝任某一特定種類的工作，或者你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你需要獲得實際工作經(jīng)驗和足夠的知識u勝任一份特定的工作。

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.

幸運的是，在做決定的時候你可以向很多人尋求意見和幫助。很多學(xué)校都有具有專業(yè)資格的老師 給你提供有關(guān)職業(yè)資格的詳細信息。你也可以與家人和朋友分享你的想法，他們總是做好準(zhǔn)備傾聽和提供幫助。
