Iris: why are you so upset today, Maria? Cheer up!
M: oh, Iris, it’s about the job with the PR company.
I: it’s a great opportunity. You should be happy with the offer.
M: but my mother won’t allow me to accept any part-time job. I’m afraid she will say no again.
I: why? It’s unfair. You can learn a lot from it.
M: she says a part-time job is cursed blessing. It takes so much time and energy that I won’t be able to focus on my study.
I: that may be true. But I’m sure you’re able to find a balance between them. Why not try it?
M: I turned down quite a few offers before for her sake. But I’m a senior now, I don’t want to miss the chance this time.
I: I agree with you but I think you really need to talk to your mother and tell her what's on your mind.
M: I’ll try, but what if she insists?
I: just let her know that the experience will be both amazing and rewarding. And more importantly, you can manage both your study and the job.
M: do you think it will work?
I: sure. Every cloud has its silver lining. Just try.
M: ok, I’ll do that. Thank you, Iris.
I: sure. Good luck, Maria!
瑪利亞,今天你的情緒為什么這么低落?振作點(diǎn)!
哎,艾瑞斯,是因?yàn)槟莻€(gè)公共公司的實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì).
這可是個(gè)好機(jī)會(huì),你應(yīng)該高興才對!
但是我媽媽老是不讓我做兼職,我擔(dān)心這次她還是不答應(yīng).
為什么啊?你可以從實(shí)習(xí)中學(xué)到很多東西的.
她總是說兼職是雙刃劍,要花很多時(shí)間和精力.我就不能專心學(xué)習(xí)了.
有道理.但是我相信你可以再兼職和學(xué)習(xí)間找到平衡的.為什么不試試呢?
我之前因?yàn)槲覌寢尫艞壛撕芏啻螜C(jī)會(huì).可是我現(xiàn)在上大四了,我不想再錯(cuò)過這次機(jī)會(huì)了.
我支持你!我覺得你應(yīng)該和你媽媽好好談?wù)?告訴她你的想法.
我想試試,要是她堅(jiān)持不答應(yīng)怎么辦?
告訴她這次兼職將對你很有幫助,更重要的是,要讓她知道你能處理好學(xué)習(xí)和工作之間的關(guān)系.
你覺得會(huì)有用嗎?
當(dāng)然啦!黑暗中總有一線光明的嘛.試試看.
好吧,我試試看!謝謝你,艾瑞斯.
不客氣,瑪利亞,祝你好運(yùn)!
