way of opportunity for promotion, happiness and security. As a result, they are employed in doing
jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction.
Our school leavers face so much competition that they seldom care what they do as long as they
can earn a living. Some stay long at a job and learn to like it; others leave one for another looking for
something to suit them. The young graduates who leave the university look for jobs that offer a salary
up to their expectation.
Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want and realizing their own abilities.
The reason behind all this confusion is that there never has been a proper vocational (职业的)
guidance in our educational institution. Nearly allfeel their way in the dark. Their chief concern when
they lookfor a job is to ask what salary is like. They never bother tothink whether they are suited for
the job or, even more important, whether the job suits them. Having a job is more thanmerely providing
yourself and your dependants (受赡养者)with daily bread and some money for leisure and
entertainment.It sets a pattern of life and, in many ways, determines social status in life, selection of
friends, leisure and interest.
In choosing a profession you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interest.
Nothing is more sad than taking on a job in which you have no interest, for it will not only ruin your
talents but also discourage your desire to succeed in life.

fee, health insurance. If only the rest of his expenses were as easy to quantify (确定数量).
"It' s like you start out the term With plenty of money and then $ 20 for dinner out here and $100 at the
department store there, it' s gone," said Tom, a third-year student."And there are so many daily necessary
things that you don' t think about until you get there and need it."
From the books to the fashionable clothes, college students say~ the expenses of a college education go
well beyond tuition and a dining hail meal plan. Many say they arrive on campus only to be frightened by
unexpected costs from sports fees to the actual price of a slice of pizza.
Balancing a job with schoolwork, especially at colleges known for their heavy workloads like Harvard and
MIT, can be tough. So can the pressure that students of- ten feel in order to financially go along with their
friends.
"When you get dragged along shopping, you're going to spend money; if you, get dragged to a party and
everyone wants to take a taxi but you are cheap and wantto take a bus, chances are you' 11 end up sharing
the fee for the taxi," said Tom."Iguess you could say no, but no one wants to be the only one eating in the
snack bar while our friends are out to dinner."
Max Cohen, a biology major at MIT, said he is used to watching fellow students spend $ 40 a night to
have dinner delivered or $ 50 during a night out at a bar. During the school' s recent spring break, friends on
trips for the week posted away messages that read like a world map-Paris, Rome, Tokyo."Meanwhile I
stay at home and work," said Cohen."I didn't realize when I came here how much money I would spend or
how hard I would have to work to get by."
It is a lesson some younger students learn quickly. Others, surrounded by credit card offers, go into debt,
or worse, are forced to leave school.
"A lot of people don' t think twice about how much they spend," said a first year student at M1T,"and you
feel the pressure sometimes to go along with them."
