In everyday life, anything satisfactory and commemoratory is considered a JOY event. The once popular Four-Joy Poem lists the four most JOY events in the olden days: rain after a long draught; meeting unexpected friends in a strange country; candle-lit wedding nights; and winning the imperial civil-service exam. <br><br> The fourth JOY "金榜题名时" shows us that being an imperial civil-service is an ideal job for ancient intellectuals. In the old times, it was a great event to become a government official, which could bring honors to their ancestors. Nowadays, along with the social and economic development, Chinese people's career concept becomes more and more diverse. What is an ideal job? It's entirely a matter of preference. So, my dear students, what is the ideal job in your mind? Today we'll come to talk about this topic.

“久旱逢甘露，他乡遇故知，洞房花烛夜，金榜题名时。”<br> 这是中国传统的四大喜事，说的是干旱了好多天后终于下了一场好雨；远在他乡却遇见了老朋友；和相爱的人结婚；认真学习好多年终于可以当官从政。最后一句“金榜题名时”，说出了中国古代的知识分子是以当官，也就是现在我们所说的从政为工作的最佳归宿，那时侯，谁如果成为官员那可是光宗耀祖的大喜事。现如今呢，随着经济的发展，中国人的择业观念也是越来越多元化。<br>什么是理想的职业，也就变成了仁者见仁智者见智的问题。那么，亲爱的同学，在你心目中，什么样的职业才是理想的职业呢？让我们一起来聊一聊吧。欢迎您走进今天的口语课堂。
