二、听力原文

You dream about being a movie star. You'll live in a big house in Hollywood, go to the Oscars every year—and win! You'll be rich and famous. Wait a minute, you also hate having your photo taken, and you're very shy, so how could you ever become a movie star?
Choosing the right career can be hard. Many people graduate from school or college not knowing what to do with their lives, and get a job without really thinking about it. For some, things work out fine, but others often find themselves stuck in a job they hate. Your working life lasts an average of forty years, so it's important to find a job you like and feel enthusiastic about. Luckily, there are many ways you can get help to do this.
The Australian website, www.careersonline.com, compares choosing a career with going to the movies. Before you see a movie, you find out what films are showing. The site suggests you should do the same with your career—find out what jobs are available and what your options are. Next, decide which movie you like best; if you're not a romantic person, you won't want to see a love story. In other words, with your career, you should decide which job will suit your personality. Finally, decide how to get movie tickets, and find out where the theater is before you go. With your career, you need to find information about where you can work, and how to get a job in that profession.
So, how do you start? Begin by asking yourself some questions. Some jobs require you to have certain life experiences: Have you traveled overseas? Do you have any extra certificates besides your degree, such as a first aid license, for example? Your physical state and build can also affect which-jobs you can do. A person, for example, who is allergic to cats would probably never become an animal doctor. Flight attendants, firefighters, and police officers have to be over a certain height, and be physically fit. Your personality matters, too. Are you outgoing or shy? If you like working alone, a job that requires lots of teamwork might not suit you.
Choosing a career can take time and a lot of thought. However, when you know you can look forward to working in your dream job, you'll be glad you thought it through.
Q16: What does the speaker say about many college graduates?
Q17: What does the Australian website suggest you do first to find a suitable job?
Q18:What should you think about when you look for the right job according to the Australian website?

【翻译】

这就是你上大学的原因。

你是来这里接受教育的。

你是来这里更好地认识思考并更好地进行独立思考的。

你一生中拥有这样的机会并不多。

在接下来的几年里，你有机会专注于思考。

我想到了一些在大学里利用了这个机会的学生。

我总喜欢告诉别人一个关于大一新生研讨班的故事，当我是哈佛大学校长的时候我有机会在那授课。

这个班是关于全球化的，我让学生阅读我写的关于国际资本流动的文章。

并且每周我都会要求一个学生介绍这篇阅读。

然后十月份的时候，有个大一新生说了类似下面的话。

“虽然西蒙斯校长写的关于国家间资本流动的文章挺耐人寻味，但是那里面的数据并不能支持其结论。”

然后我心想，“这是多么匪夷所思的事情啊”！

一个才来大学五个星期的人居然对一个大学校长说他根本不知道自己在说什么！

那是一个特别的时刻。

喂，我不想被人误解。

我向学生解释说，我认为他实际上比我更困惑，所以我反驳了他。

但是那件事的真正重要之处在于，大学其实是个独一无二的思想权威之处。

当大学老师的学生作出的发现损害了他们提出的、受珍视的理论的时候，你会发现他们会很高兴。

我想起了我的另一个学生，他有一天晚上来我的办公室找我，夸我写了一篇非常不错的论文，但是里面有五处重大的错误，他还说他想得到一份工作。

至于那是不是错误还有待商榷，但这个年轻的人渴望学习的态度却是不容置疑的。

不可否认他是一个想在经济学中有所作为的年轻人，如今他是一名经济学教授，人们对他著作的引用比世界上任何经济学家的都要多。

问题16至18是基于你刚才所听到的那篇录音。

问题16：关于大学，讲话者说了什么？

问题17：我们从讲话者讲的关于大学的故事中学到了什么？

问题18：说话者在那个质疑他论文的年轻人身上看到了什么？
