题目

An increasing number of people are changing careers during their working life. What do you think are the reasons for this? Do you think this is a positive or negative development for society?

解析

本题是绝对老题，曾经在2014年6月21日、2018年6月7日、2019年12月12日出现过。本题要围绕人们换工作这件事来讨论。在过去，更换一次工作是很难的，多数人都是在一个岗位上工作到退休，但现在刚毕业几年的年轻人如果没有换几次工作都会觉得自己吃亏了。

那么，这到底是什么原因造成的呢？对于这种原因分析的题目，笔者建议大家从三个层次（即物质层次、心理层次和社会层次）去思考，就容易把思路梳理得比较有条理。就更换工作而言，第一个理由肯定是为了挣取更高的工资，获得更好的发展机会；其次，从心理上讲，很多人愿意去尝试新工作，认为这样可以结识不同领域的朋友，增加人生体验；最后，从社会角度看，由于技术的日新月异，工作本身也在不停变化，因此人们不得不换工作。

那么，频繁更换工作是好还是坏呢？从好处上讲，这的确可以增加人们的工作经历，从而提高他们未来在就业市场上的竞争力，但也有坏处，比如无法在某个领域成为最顶级的专家，从而失去更多发展机会。

双语范文

Not long ago, most people would choose tostay on the same jobfor the entire life, but today people prefer to try different things andhop from one job to another. In my view, there mainly are three reasons whypeople are doing so.

不久以前，大多数人都会选择终生从事同一份工作，但今天人们更喜欢尝试不同的事情，从一份工作跳到另一份工作。在我看来，人们之所以这样做，主要有三个原因。

At the most basic level, people find that frequent job changing can often bring them the pay rise they expect. My friend Edward is a perfect example. As a program designer, he has worked for three different companies in the past five years, and now he earns almost five times as much as he did in the first company. This would not have been possible if he had not beenmobileenough. The second reason is that by doing different jobs or careers, people can increase their work experience andeventuallybecome moreversatile. This maygive them a competitive edge, especially in today’s job market where an all-round employee is always preferred. Finally, in a world wherechange takes place almoston a daily basis, doing the same job for ever is simplyout of the question.

在最基本的层面上，人们发现频繁换工作往往会给他们带来期望的加薪。我的朋友爱德华就是个最好的例子。作为一名程序设计师，他在过去五年里为三家不同的公司工作过，现在他的收入几乎是第一家公司的五倍。如果他不是如此频繁地变动，那是不可能的。第二个原因是，通过做不同的工作或职业，人们可以增加工作经验，并最终变得更多才多艺。这可能会给他们一个竞争优势，特别是在当今的就业市场上，一个全面的员工总是被青睐的。最后，在一个几乎日新月异的世界里，永远做同样的工作根本是不可能的。

Needless to say, job-hopping may be a bad thing if it is not well-considered. Shifting from job to job may prove to be a waste of time and opportunity since this may easily make a personJack of all trades and master of none. As we know, the person who can provide the most professional service for the company enjoys the best opportunity of promotion. However, if a person does not find the job he is doing interesting orfulfilling, then his change job could be a win-win strategy both for the companies and employees. For the companies, “new bloods” often mean stronger labor force and vitality of the staff. For the employees, a new job means a new opportunity.

不用说，跳槽可能是一件坏事，如果没有没有好好考虑的话。从一份工作转到另一份工作可能是浪费时间和机会，因为这可能很容易使一个人成为万金油，但一无所专。我们知道，能够为公司提供最专业服务的人享有最佳的晋升机会。但是，如果一个人发现他所从事工作没有意义或没有成就感，那么他换工作对公司和员工来说都是双赢的策略。对公司来说，“新血液”通常意味着更强大的劳动力和活力。对员工来说，新的工作意味着新的机会。

In light ofthe above discussion, I would conclude that no change of jobs is wasteful as long as it is carefully considered.Holding on toa job that we do not like is a crime against our precious life.

根据以上的讨论，我认为只要仔细考虑，换工作是不会浪费的。坚持一份我们不喜欢的工作是对我们宝贵生命的一种犯罪。
