精彩范文
In the past two years of my college life, I have never ceased to think what kind of work I shall take up upon graduation. Although my ideas are not consistent, I have now decided to start a business of my own as my lifelong career.
A variety of factors have led me to make this decision over other more lucrative ones. To begin with, running my own business means freedom and independence. As a person having my own business, I am free to use my own ideas and make my own decisions, a privilege not everyone can have, even those with highly-paid positions. More importantly, I like starting my own business in that it offers a certain peace of mind. No more rushing to catch a morning bus, no more anxiety to please a boss, no more worries about your paycheck which is steady, if not handsome.
Nothing, not even a big salary, can equal for the satisfaction of being your own boss and a gentle peace of life.
參考譯文
? ?? ? 在過去兩年的大學(xué)生活中,我一刻也沒有停止過思考:我大學(xué)畢業(yè)以后要干什么工作。盡管我的想法很多,但我現(xiàn)在已決定,我將開創(chuàng)我自己的事業(yè)。
? ?? ? 有很多理由使我做出這個(gè)選擇而不是其他較賺錢職業(yè)的決定。首先,創(chuàng)業(yè)意味著自由和獨(dú)立。當(dāng)一名創(chuàng)業(yè)人員我可以有自己想法的自由,有自己作決定的自由,而這個(gè)特權(quán)不是每一個(gè)人,甚至拿高薪的人都能擁有的。其次,我喜歡創(chuàng)業(yè),是因?yàn)檫@個(gè)工作給我一份安寧。我無須每天早上去趕汽車,無須為如何討好老板,如何不落在人家后面而焦慮不安,無須擔(dān)心自己的工作收入,雖然不那么豐厚,但卻十分穩(wěn)定。
? ?? ? 沒有什么東西,甚至高工資,可以抵得上自己做主人的樂趣和平靜安寧的生活。
