谢谢婷婷,你改的很细心哦 这是我修改之后的 9月16日 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement : similar jobs with you for your children ? 赞成反对题
One major difference between some parents and their children in the emphasis on choosing jobs naturally gives rise to an issue of whether children should take similar jobs with their parents. My reflection on the relevant elements of this issue as well as my experiences leads me to hold a positive attitude towards the assertion(opinion,assertion一般是不对的、片面的主张,如果你支持这个主张的话,就不要用assertion ) that let children follow their true heart when it comes to career selection. After all, each individual is different,andchildren may notbe qualified for their parents' work.
The first reason coming to my mind is that if children are forced to choose jobs withtheir parents, it will become difficult for them to grow mature(become mature gradually,grow mature太中式化). Parents’ direction will(probably比较好,用will太绝对了)prevent them from committing mistakes.As a result, they will never get negative feedbacks and learn how to correct faults.Babies will never learn to walk before they fall down again and again.Once they fall down, parents will pay attention to them and try to find out what is wrong and then teach them how to walk better.(对应的例子不够深, Here gives an example of compulsorily choosing career for children. Tom’s father was a doctor, and Tom finally chose doctor as his career conforming to the requirement of his father. At the beginning, everything was going so well because his father always told him what to do and what not to do. After his father’s retirement, various problems usually drove Tom so anxious that he finally had to give up his career. )Therefore, it’s quite obvious that parents should’t(should not) force children to choose similar jobs with them.
What is equally important is the fact that, as an old saying goes, interest is the best teacher. If childrenhave no interest in their parents’ jobs, parents' help is just meaningless. Taking Elon Musk as an instance, so tedious he thought the machines would be that he rejected the abundant experiences from his mother though his mother is a very successful engineer. Since what he was interested was venture capital, he finally chose to follow his heart and becamethe founder of SpaceX, which develops and produces space lunch vehicles with low cost but high reliability.Of course, he(his) achievements were far more than the above. He once said that he was about to retire on Mas(Mars)! Imagine that, if Elon Musk had(来个倒装, had Elon Musk)chosen to be an engineer, everything might be different. Thus, I absolutely believe thatit’s so important for parents to respect on children’s interest(children’s willingness should be given precedence over other factors).
In addition to the above reasons, another point I want to make about this topic is that if a whole family choose the similar jobs, it would certainly have some negative effects, for example, their knowledge scopes will be limited since they are all familiar with the same region. They may become severely bruised and battered when facing all kinds of unusual problems. What is worse, they will face the risk of unemployment if the industrysuffers from depression.It is just due to that no one from the family can successfully do well in other industries. It is,in the sense,reasonable to say that choosing different jobs may be a better choice between family members. Taking into account the above analysis,we may safely come to the conclusion that children should follow their heart to pursue dreams rather than choose the similar jobs with their parents, especially when they really do not like it. It also can reduce the risk of the whole family.
