Part I Writing

Upon graduation, every college student is facing such a difficult problem as what to do next.Students' opinions differ greatly on this issue.第一段前两句引出文章将要探讨的问题:大学毕业后选择什么样的人生道路?然后指出学生们的想法大不相同。 For some, they hold that it is a matter of course to find a job somewhere upon graduation.For others, they believe it is high time that they should start a business of their own.第一段中间两句列举两种不同的就业选择:毕业后在某处找一份工作和创业。 For me, I would like to find a job first.第一段末句表明自己的选择:先找一份工作,为下文论述做铺垫。

For one thing, I want to be independent of my parents, financing myself soon after graduation.第二段是文章的主体部分,采用for one thing… for another…分点阐述了毕业后先找一份工作的原因。 What's more, finding a good job in a big company is what my parents are expecting, and I don't want to let them down.For another, as for me, without any family business background, to start a business of my own means that I have to start from scratch.第二段是文章的主体部分,采用for one thing… for another…分点阐述了毕业后先找一份工作的原因。 Under such circumstances, it is better for me to find a job first, because only in this way can I learn from the directors and colleagues, gaining working and social experience.

In short, to find a job somewhere in a big company is my choice.最后一句话以in short收尾,重申主题。

毕业之际,每一位大学生都面临着一个难题,那就是接下来要做什么。在这个问题上,学生们的观点有着很大差异。有些学生认为毕业后当然要在某个地方找一份工作,而其他学生则认为是时候自己创业了。对我来说,我想先找一份工作。

一方面,毕业后我不想再依赖父母,想很快获得经济独立。而且,我在大公司找一份好工作也是父母所期盼的,我不想让他们失望。另一方面,我没有任何家族企业背景,所以对我来说创业意味着要白手起家。在这种情况下,我最好还是先找一份工作,因为只有这样我才能向主管和同事们学习,积累工作经验和社交经验。

总之,我的选择就是在某家大公司找一份工作。

句法点评

1.Upon graduation, every college student is facing such a difficult problem as what to do next.

本句主干结构为every college student is facing… problem。其中,such a difficult problem as…中包含一个由as引导的定语从句,修饰先行词problem。

2.For some, they hold that it is a matter of course to find a job somewhere upon graduation.

本句是一个复合句,主语是they, 谓语动词是hold, that引导宾语从句。在这个宾语从句中,it是形式主语,to find a job somewhere upon graduation是真正的主语,因主语太长,为保持句子平衡而用it作形式主语,而将真正的主语后置。

3.For others, they believe it is high time that they should start a business of their own.

本句是一个复合句,主语是they, 谓语动词是believe, 后面的宾语从句使用了虚拟语气。It's time + that clause中的that可省略,time可由high, about等词修饰,从句中的谓语动词有两种形式:用动词的过去式(be用werE) 和用should +动词原形(should不能省略)。此句型为虚拟语气句型,表示“现在某人该做某事了”。

4.…it is better for me to find a job first, because only in this way can I learn from the directors and colleagues, gaining working and social experience.

本句是一个复合句,在because引导的原因状语从句中包含一个only置于句首形成的半倒装句(表现为can I learn from, 即助动词can提到了主语I的前面),gaining working and social experience是现在分词短语作结果状语。
