本題為標準的「二選一」論說文,考生應優先選擇能展現公職專業詞彙的「外交人員(Foreign service worker)」。寫作時務必緊扣題目「No job is perfect」的提示,除了闡述該職務的優點外,必須撥出一個段落討論其潛在缺點(如:頻繁搬遷、適應壓力),再以「使命感大於缺點」的邏輯進行反駁與昇華,展現嚴密的批判性思考與寫作邏輯。
【範文】 While every career path presents a unique blend of opportunities and challenges, selecting a profession requires balancing personal aspirations with an overarching sense of purpose. Between the roles of a study abroad adviser and a foreign service worker, I would unequivocally choose the latter. Although acknowledging that no job is flawless, the profound impact of representing one's nation on the global stage makes the diplomatic profession an unparalleled pursuit. The primary appeal of being a foreign service worker lies in the opportunity to foster positive international relations. In an increasingly interconnected and volatile world, diplomats serve as the vanguard of cross-cultural understanding and conflict resolution. Living in diverse corners of the globe not only broadens one's horizons but also allows for direct engagement in policy advocacy, economic negotiations, and cultural exchange. By promoting national interests and facilitating mutual cooperation, this role provides a profound sense of duty and fulfillment that transcends mere occupational satisfaction. Furthermore, the exposure to myriad cultures cultivates a high degree of adaptability and global awareness.
