There is no exaggeration in saying that when it comes to the choice after graduating from university, people who are standing at the crossroads may have different ideas. Some people may choose to further their study, while others may want to go abroad. Facing the choices of working in a state-owned business and a joint venture, I would like to choose the former one.
The reasons are listed as following. At the top of the list, it is an undeniable fact the state-owned business can provide a stable life for me , so I can spend more time with my parents without worrying about other things. Additionally, we must admit that if I work in a state-owned business, I will work re-laxly and without much pressure.That is what I want. In line with a survey conducted by authorities concerned on the web, nearly two thirds of people interviewed like to make the same choice as me.
In a word, if I can work in a state-owned business, I think, I will have a happy life.
【参考译文】
毫不夸张的说，当谈到大学毕业之后的选择时，那些站在人生十字路口的人们有着不同的看法，有些人会选择继续深造，有些人则选择出国留学。于我而言，当我面临在国企和合资企业工作的选择时，我会选择前者。
原因如下。首先，一个不可否认的事实是：国企能够为我提供一个稳定的生活，这样的话我就有更多的时间来陪我的家人，而无需担心其他事情。此外，我们必须承认一点：如果我在国企工作，那我的工作将会很轻松，没有什么压力。这也是我所梦想的生活方式。和微博上的相关部门进行的调查相一致的是，大约有三分之二的受访人们将会和我作出一样的选择。
总之，我想，如果我能在国企里工作，我将会过的很幸福。
【范文解析】
这次的四级作文考查的话题和大学生生活极为紧密，即大学毕业后的选择：在国企工作还是合资企业工作，这是每个大学毕业生都必须要作出的选择。构思本题可以从以下思路入手，首先开门见山，点出自己的选择；中间段落具体阐述自己这样选择的原因，比如因为国企的工作比较稳定，毫无压力。结尾段再次说出自己的选择，首尾呼应，点明主题。
