1. What are your job prospects?
"prospects"這個(gè)詞的意義很寬泛，可以理解成工作的前景、計(jì)劃、期望、或者對(duì)未來工作的設(shè)想及展望等等。類似的問題還有What's your career plan?/What kind of job are you planning to take in the future?/What's is your favorite job?/What do you think of your future job?/Do you have any plan for the future job?等等。
Candidate 1: After graduation, I'm planning to find a job which can improve my abilities and support myself. Among the considerable choices, joining a foreign company is the best. That is my first step. Then I will change my job at a proper time. The second job must be a well-paid(高薪的), decent(體面的) one so that I can earn enough money. If everyone is going well, my final goal is to travel around the world and make contributions to our society by investing in hi-tech industry.
回答干脆利落，對(duì)未來工作的構(gòu)想，提出的“三步走戰(zhàn)略”步步為營(yíng)，給人一種流暢的感覺。After graduation, Then和final goal分別提示了工作時(shí)間，起到很好的銜接作用。
Candidate 2: I've always had a dream of becoming a teacher. A doctor is allowed to usher(帶來) life into the world in one magic moment. An architect knows that if he builds with care his structure may stand for centuries. A teacher is allowed to see that life is reborn each day with new questions, ideas and instructions, and he knows that if he builds with love and truth, what he builds will last forever. In my opinion, even if the names and faces have been forgotten but teachers' lessons and instructions will always be remembered by their students forever. Maybe several years later I'll stand in the front of a classroom giving lectures to my students. However, before that, I have to explore more effective teaching methods and I'm now looking forward to a revolution in the field of education which is launched(發(fā)動(dòng)，發(fā)展) by myself.
開始的幾個(gè)排比句列舉了幾個(gè)不同職業(yè)的特點(diǎn)，雖然用得很有氣勢(shì)，但是過于書面化，顯得有些不自然。后面In my opinion話鋒一轉(zhuǎn)，把回答切換到現(xiàn)實(shí)中來，稍稍好些。
2. Is it easy for college students to get jobs? Why?
關(guān)于這個(gè)問題的答案，估計(jì)90%以上的應(yīng)答者都是否定的。事過境遷，高校畢業(yè)生的就業(yè)形勢(shì)確實(shí)每況愈下。應(yīng)答的關(guān)鍵不是給出一個(gè)Y/N的答案，而是在于分析這一現(xiàn)象背后的原因，或者就這一現(xiàn)象提出解決方案。對(duì)于已經(jīng)就業(yè)的應(yīng)答者，這個(gè)問題可以結(jié)合自己的實(shí)際求職經(jīng)歷闡述。
Candidate 1: I think it is not easy for graduates to find jobs, especially a satisfactory job. What leads to such an unpleasant situation? It's a complex social problem. First of all, there are too many graduates but limited jobs for them. With the developement of China, there are more and more universities being built and the amount of graduates. Besides, the country needs more and more advanced workers. But the professional workers' training is inferior in China. Furthermore, many graduates' capabilities are not good enough. In many universities, too relaxing studies lead to the poor abilities of many students. No pains no gains. If one doesn't work hard to improve himself, perhaps in the future, he will hardly find a job.
本題的應(yīng)答關(guān)鍵在于分析原因或解決問題。Candidate 1分析了高校畢業(yè)生就業(yè)難的原因，即崗位有限，畢業(yè)生自身能力欠缺等。
Candidate 2: As college students have a higher education, this phenomenon(現(xiàn)象) may sound strange in the eyes of most people. There are two reasons behind. One is that some college students can't come to terms with(妥協(xié)，適應(yīng)) the world around. They often consider too many factors such as salary, working conditions, partnership(伙伴關(guān)系) and so on. So jobs which can fit them become fewer. Another reason is that the major students pursue(從事) don't match with the demands of the job, and the result is that they miss the opportunities.
Candidate 2從另外兩個(gè)角度分析了高校畢業(yè)生就業(yè)難的原因——期望值過高和專業(yè)不符。希望給大家一點(diǎn)啟發(fā)。
Candidate 3: In my opinion, college students should know themselves well and they should pay more attention to their practical abilities. Now, the society needs people with special technique. If college students can speak foreign languages well, or use the computer well, or even can drive a car, it will become easier for them to find jobs. In a word, in the unversity, students should learn as much as possible and improve their practical abilities(實(shí)際能力). Only by doing this can they have a better future.
與前兩個(gè)側(cè)重與分析問題的回答不同的是，Candidate 3側(cè)重于解決問題。然而，僅僅提出一條“培養(yǎng)實(shí)際能力”略顯單薄。
3. If you can't find a job soon after graduation, what will you do?
