China’s Employment Market Challenged by More Graduates 2003年12月英語(yǔ)專(zhuān)業(yè)八級(jí)口語(yǔ)考試真題答案任務(wù)一：英譯中在《自然》雜志創(chuàng)刊5周年慶典上的講話任務(wù)二：中譯英The Speech by the Mayor of Longcheng City on the Closing Ceremony of the International Seminar on Preserving and Renewal of the Old City任務(wù)三：對(duì)話題發(fā)表看法In the past, people who graduated from college felt proud of their academic achievement and confident that their degree would help them to find a good job.However, in the past four years the job market has changed dramatically. This year’s college graduates are facing one of the worst job markets in years. Four years ago, the future looked bright for the class of 2003. There were many hightech (“dot ”) job opportunities, graduates received many job offers, and they were able to get jobs with high salaries and benefits such as insurance and paid vacations. However, “Times have changed. It’s a new market,” according to Cheryl AllmenVinnidge of the San Jose State Career Center. AllmenVinnidge says students who do find jobs started preparing two years ago. They worked during summer vacations, they have had several internships, and they majored in fields that are still paying well, such as accounting or nursing. In conclusion, these days a college degree does not automatically lead to a good job with a high salary. Some students can only hope that the value of their degree will increase in the future. Followup Notes: San Jose State University is in San Jose, California A “dot ” is a pany whose operations are mostly Internetbased. The term es from the Internet address of such panies. For example, is read as “www dot microsoft dot .” In the 1990s thousands of new dot s started up, opening up work opportunities for many thousands of college graduates. Many of these panies eventually failed.No wonder the days when graduates were assigned with good jobs are long gone, and now every year thousands of college students swarmed into petitive jobhunting markets with their diplomas and certifications. Generally speaking, they should get some internship experience in panies apart from social activities on campus before graduating from university. jobhunting abilitiesORAL TEST FOR ENGLISH MAJORS (2004)GRADE EIGHTTask One: Interpreting from English into ChineseDirections: Please do not do interpreting when you listen to the speech this time.Speech by a British High OfficialDirections: Now listen again.
