5 Reasons to Be Flexible About Your Career Plans

Staying flexible when it comes to thinking about your future may be the right choice for you. Here are five reasons why.

People change.

While a certain career may seem like a good fit for you now, think about how different you may be in five, ten or twenty years. As you get older, have more experiences and learn new things, your feelings about what you want to do may change. 【1】

The world changes.

Webmasters(网站管理员) didn’t exist a generation ago. The world changes very fast. 【2】 Pay attention both to the changes in your interests and to developments in the career world.

There’s no one perfect career.

When choosing a career, you’ll try to match your skills and interests with work in certain areas. There won’t be one perfect match. 【3】 But many jobs will suit you and allow you to use your talents.

【4】

Did you ever hear someone say something like, "I fell into my career"? That's because as important as planning and research are, chance still plays a role. Keep an open mind, learn to tolerate some degree of uncertainty and watch for opportunity.

Satisfaction is key.

【5】 In the long run, however, people are generally happier and more successful if they choose a career that matches their interests and strengths. Take the time to develop your interests and then look for a career that will satisfy and fulfill you.

A. You may lose it.

B. You can only plan so far ahead.

C. Don’t ignore the importance of the interest.

D. Many jobs will suit you and allow you to use your talents.

E. Many people feel pulled to a job that's familiar, popular or profitable.

F. Thus new careers appear all the time, while others become less common.

G. Even jobs that sound ideal will probably involve some things you dislike.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】F

【3】G

【4】B

【5】E

【解析】

在考虑未来职业选择时，保持灵活性是正确的选择，本文就其中的原因作了分析。

【1】 D 上文提到随着年龄增长，你会变得更有经验，学会很多新事物，你先做什么样的工作的感觉也会改变，此处选择D项，“很多工作会适合你且能够发挥你工作的才能”呼应上文。

【2】F 上文天地“大约三十年前网站管理员的职业并不存在；世界在迅速地变化着”，此处选择F项“因此新的职业一直都在出现，而一些职业也变得较不罕见”与上文内容构成因果关系。

【3】G 上文提到没有能够与自己的兴趣和技能完全相配的工作，此处选择G项“甚至那些听上去完美的职业也可能村在某些让你厌恶的方面”紧承上文进行论述。

【4】B 本段主要论述了要早作打算并提前计划以做好迎接新出现的工作机会的准备，故此处选择B项“你唯一能做的是早作打算”以概括本段主旨。

【5】E 下文提到选择与其兴趣和强项相吻合的工作的人通常会更快乐，更成功，此处选择E项“很多人觉得那些熟悉的、热门的或者赚钱的工作很有吸引力”与下文内容形成转折。
