12、的工作经历进大学不久我就下定决心，在进入“现实世界”前先到国外呆一段。四年级的时候，我的大多数同学都在忙着为“现实世界”的工作面试，我却在研究怎么才能去另外一个国家工作。刚开始打听的时候，我对去哪儿，干什么都很随便。我就是很想出国，让我干什么都行。不久我就听说了一个叫“北美学生英国大学俱乐部”的计划，像是专为想出国工作的学生制定的。它给在读或是刚毕业的学生提供工作签证，让他们能到海外工作。因为语言相通和找工作容易的关系，在六个可供选择的国家中我选择了英国。 毕业两个月后我横渡大西洋，到伦敦之前花六个礼拜把整个欧洲跑了一遍。1997 年月 24 日，我带着一张工作签证来到伦敦，但却没有工作，也没

13、地方可住。我得承认那确实挺让人害怕的!到达的第二天，我度过了我的第一个英国假日银行休假日。这是个全国性的假日，到处关门歇业。直到第三天，我才去了“北美学生英国大学俱乐部”的办事处，熟悉了一下情况。在此过程中，我了解到一切有关在英国生活工作的细节。我知道了该怎么逛街，怎么写英国式的履历，交税，买健康保险，旅游，找住的地方，最重要的是，怎么找份工作。我最关心怎么找工作，因为我所带的钱已所剩无几，得尽快弄一份薪水。事实证明找工作就像写履历一样简单! “北美学生英国大学俱乐部”计划在伦敦很有知名度，许多雇主加入了这项计划。因此很多领域都有许多工作机会可供选择。在找工作的时候，我选择了三个不同的雇主，将

14、自己的简历和附函传真给了他们。第一个星期我进行了三场面试，接受了我的第一个工作机会，为美林证券国际银行工作。我在美林证券的办公室是在一幢漂亮古老的楼房里，离白金汉宫只有两个街区。那儿的人都很友好，工作也很有意思。适应伦敦的生活并非难事。不光如此，这儿值得一看的东西太多了。我在这儿呆了六个月，可能只走了一半我打算要去的地方。在伦敦工作有许多好处。其中一个就是能融入到上班族中，真正领略一番英国的文化。我的大多数同事都是英国人，因此，通过大量接触英国人的日常生活，我确实觉得自己了解学习了英国的文化。其次，像这样在另一个国家生活、旅游也是很经济的，因为大部分工作都足以让你支付房租，生活费和旅游费。第三

15、，你有机会得到宝贵的工作经历，让你的履历看起来也更加国际化。迄今为止，到伦敦工作是我做过的最好的决定。我毫不犹豫地把它推荐给大家!Unit 4 Passage B 课后练习Content AwarenessRead and complete11 Complete the following statements with the information you got from the passage.1 B 2 A 3 C 4 C 5 D12 Fill in the blanks with the information you got frOm the passage1 decided t

23、工作，我就会受到责骂。但是现在我独自生活了，我必须完成自己的职责，即使没有人要求我这么做。一旦没有完成，我就得独自承担相应后果。对我来说，独立生活的另一个经验就是，现在我有更多的决策权了。现在我独自生活，父母没在身边，不能给我建议，因此我不得不更加小心谨慎了。既然现在我是独立的了，就必须自己做决定。比如，我必须在不伤害任何人的感情和不受父母支配的情况下，做出最好的决策。因此，通过独立生活我变得更具有创造力。我能设计自己的未来。我制定了自己要遵守的规则。我用木工工具设计制作自己房间里的所有家具。我写了许多歌曲，并把它们保存在我的笔记本里，等着送给感兴趣的歌手。这对我而言是一个很好的经历，因为我常

24、认为有创造力是世上最美好的事物。然而，当我和父母在一起的时候，我觉得自己之所以很难有创造力，就是因为我老是跟着他们的想法跑。总之，这些就是我和父母一起的时候，以及我独处的时候会发生的事情。另外，我认为对世上所有的人来说，应该先爱他们的父母，爱他们自己，然后才去爱别人。大家都应该学会独立生活，但同时也要学会关爱赡养他们的父母。对于父母教给他们的生活之道，都要一一照做。同时也要使用自由选择的权利来达到自己希望的目标。Unit 4 写作练习答案3 Write and ProduceGeneral Writing Consistency of Verb TensesKey to ExercisesWr
