雅思口语课程-第三课:如何讨论你的工作?

如何讨论你的工作?

Job Interview:

在雅思口语考试中可能会有遇到关于工作的话题,例如:

Why do you want this job?

此时你可以开门见山的表示你很适合或擅长这项工作,例如一下表达:

I think I am a good fit / match for this job.

我认为我能胜任这项工作。

fit代表合适,match代表匹配,a good fit/match for sth.表示“和…是相配套的,和…正合适”

2.I think this job suits me down to the ground .(≈The job is perfect for me .)

suits sb. down to the ground不仅仅表达和工作的匹配度,并且匹配度是最高的

3.I think this job ties in well with my future plans.

我认为这项工作符合我的未来规划。

在回答面试官的问题时,或多或少都会涉及到职业规划的问题,例3就是一个很好的表达。

4.I am excited to showcase my skills.

我很开心去发挥的我的才干。

当表达我想要这份工作,如果你说“I want to get the job.”这样的表达会很无聊,如果种说法“I am excited to showcase my skills.”,就会更加的吸引人。

还可以表示我在工作的态度,比如努力工作,表达如下:

5.I am eager /keen/enthusiastic to make a contribution.

6.I am sure I could bring a lot to this job.
(such as your skills , attitude , ability…)

7.I never shy away from hard work.

例句5和6表达我会爆肝工作的(有点夸张的成分)。

Responsibilitis at work

假如你在从事某项工作(If you land the job≈get the job),你有负责的工作任务和承担的相应责任,以下以营销为例子:

I'm responsible for setting the marketing goals .
我会为营销目标负责的。I'm in charge of marketing.
我负责营销。

I’m in charge of setting the marketing goals.

我负责制定营销目标。

I’m in charge of making the marketing strategy.

我负责制定营销策略。

3.It’s down to me to set/reach our marketing goals.

我会为营销目标负责的。

4.My forte(专长,特长) ismaking creative graphics.

5.I excel at making creative graphics.

例句4和5表均表达我很擅长制作创意的设计,“My forte(专长,特长) is…”和 “excel at…”表示“擅长…”。

Expression for being busy with the job:
表示忙于工作的表达:

1.I’m snowed under with work.

2.I’ve got a lot on my plate .

3.I’m up to my neck inthis job /deadlines.

4.I work overtimeto make ends meet .

I work extra shifts to make ends meet .

(To make ends meet : to have enough money to survive.使开始的数量和结束的数量一致,可以表示收支平衡)

Changing Jobs

≈Job hopping (n.) :move from one job to another

表示要换个工作,可以参考如下表达:

1.I’m stuck in a rut.

≈I am in a bad situation.

2.I’m not realising my potential.

≈I don’t have the chance to use my talents.

3.I’ve got untapped potential.
≈I’ve got skills I am not using yet.

4.I want to make a career change .

5.It ‘s time to move on.

It’s time to move on to a new challenge.

Job Interview Tips

工作面试的小技巧

a. Do your homework

做好功课

Find out the company by going to the website and social media , understand their vision , mission , values.

浏览公司的网站和官方媒体账号,理解他们的愿景、使命、价值观。

b. Use words the company uses

使用公司的语言

结合公司的愿景、使命、价值观,并在面试过程中有意无意的穿插使用。

c. Focus on your ability more than qualification

能力大于证书

d. Focus on giving as well as taking

e. Choose as well as be chosen

面试和被面试也很重要

你在参加一场面试,不仅仅使一家公司在选择合适的员工,你同样也在选择一个可靠的企业,你和公司间的地位是平等的。

In the distant future, Earth had transformed into a bustling hub for interstellar tourism. 在遥远的未来,地球已经变成了星际旅游繁忙的枢纽。

The influx of tourists from different planets brought along their own jargon, creating a vibrant mix of languages that humans had never heard before. 来自不同星球的游客带来了他们自己的行话,创造了一个充满活力的语言混合,人类以前从未听说过。

One day, a therapist specializing in the treatment of thieves arrived on Earth with a revolutionary therapy. 有一天,一位专门治疗小偷的治疗师带着一种革命性的疗法来到了地球。

As the therapist continued his journey, Earth prospered as a thriving center for interstellar exchange and collaboration, where the latest trends in culture and technology were shared and celebrated. 随着治疗师继续他的旅程,地球作为一个充满活力的星际交流与合作中心,繁荣昌盛,人们在这里分享并庆祝文化和技术的最新趋势。

It wasn’t long before the cost of tuition for the therapist’s workshops became an acceptable price to pay for the peace and prosperity it brought to the entire galaxy. 没过多久,为治疗师的研讨会付学费成为了人们愿意为整个银河系的和
平与繁荣付出的可接受代价。和平与繁荣的降临使整个银河系的居民都愿意为治疗师的研讨会付出学费。

As more and more planets adopted the therapist’s techniques, the rates of theft in the galaxy dropped significantly. 随着越来越多的星球采用治疗师的技术,银河系的盗窃率显著降低。

This unprecedented era of peace allowed the galaxy to focus on advancing scientific discoveries and fostering cultural exchange between different planetary civilizations. 这个空前的和平时代使银河系得以专注于推进科学发现和促进不同行星文明之间的文化交流。

In time, a new interstellar tram system was established, connecting countless planets and facilitating even greater collaboration and growth. 随着时间的推移,建立了一个新的星际有轨电车系统,连接了无数星球,促进了更大的合作和发展。

People marveled at the trailer for the grand opening of the tram system, showcasing the impressive engineering achievements of countless individuals from various tribes. 人们惊叹于这个有轨电车系统盛大开幕的预告片,展示了来自各个部落的无数个人在工程方面的令人印象深刻的成就。

Meanwhile, the therapist’s treatment continued to evolve, adapting to the latest trends in psychology and neurology. 与此同时,治疗师的治疗方法继续发展,适应心理学和神经学的最新趋势。

As a result, not only was theft eradicated, but other forms of crime began to diminish as well, paving the way for a harmonious and united galaxy. 结果,不仅盗窃被消除,其他形式的犯罪也开始减少,为一个和谐团结的银河系铺平了道路。
