Unit1 人在职场
Text 3正文
Tight-lipped elders used to say, “It’s not what you want in this world, but what you get.”
Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.
You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living. If we intend to have friends to dinner, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is an essential for any type of meal to be served.
Likewise, if you want to find a job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourself. In making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your services.
This account of yourself is actually a sketch of your working life and should include education, experience and references. Such an account is valuable. It can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviews. While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your “wares” and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected manner.
When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something tangible to sell. Then you are ready to hunt for a job. Get all the possible information about your could-be job. Make inquiries as to the details regarding the job and the firm. Keep your eyes and ears open, and use your own judgment. Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking the employment you wish for, and keep in mind: Securing a job is your job now.

Text 3 全文翻译
出言谨慎的年长者过去总说：“重要的不是在这个世界上你想要什么，而是你得到了什么。”
心理学教导人们，如果你知道自己需要什么、并且要求合理，你就能得到它。
你可以在头脑里勾画出愿望的蓝图，如同设计房屋的蓝图一样。而我们每个人在日常生活中都在不停地勾画着这样的愿望蓝图。比方说，想请朋友吃晚餐，我们就会筹划菜谱、列购物单、决定先煮什么菜等，这样的筹划对于举行任何形式的宴请都是必不可少的。
同样，如果你想找一份工作，那就拿一张纸，写一份对自我的简单描述吧。为找工作制订计划蓝图时，要从你自己开始，因为只有当确切知道你可以提供什么服务时，你才能明智地筹划到哪儿去推销它们。
对自我的描述实际上是对你的职业生涯的简介，它应包括教育背景、经验和证明材料。这样的描述是很有价值的，在填写标准的申请表格时可作为参照，在面试时更是尤为有用。在与你面谈时，你未来的雇主将根据你的教育背景、经验和其他的资历来确定雇用你是否值得，因此你必须把你“待售的物品”和能力以有序而合理连贯的方式呈现出来。
当你为自己的能力和愿望仔细地筹划了一幅蓝图后，你就有实在的东西可以推销了。那时你就准备去找工作，先搜集所有与你可能选择的工作相关的信息，对工作和公司的详情进行调查，留心看，留意听，使用你的判断力。每天花一定的时间寻找你想要的工作，请记住：找工作就是你现在的工作。

Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.
You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living. If we intend to have friends to dinner, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is an essential for any type of meal to be served.
该句意义：
第一个段落中有万能的理由，“心理学教会我们……”，其内容是在阐述计划于得到之间的关系，完全可以运用于将来的写作之中。
第二个段落是对于第一个段落的具体说明。该段落以盖房子和请客吃饭为例，将第一段的抽象化内容具体化，使之更加易于为读者所理解。各位同学们也可以将这个内容带入写作之中，但是并不是完全的照抄，而是有一个类似例子即可。
该句语法：
(1)“that”宾语从句： that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.
(2)“what”宾语从句：
A . what you want
B . what you want
(3)条件状语从句： if you know what you want and want the right things.
(4)省略结构：and want the right things.=and you want the right things.
(5)虚拟语气：You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house
(6)省略结构： we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, =we plan the menu, we make a shopping list, we decide which food to cook first,
(7)代词指代：such planning=we plan the menu, we make a shopping list, we decide which food to cook first,
