w88 mobile: Knock on the diplomatic door with language tools
Reporter Wang Qi
w88 mobile, a master's degree in English interpretation majoring in the 2018 English School. During his time at school, he served as the class monitor of English interpretation major of the English School and received a first-class academic scholarship.
When receiving the interview, w88 mobile was in California, USA, participating in training after the Ministry of Foreign Affairs selection exam. California is about to enter summer, and the sunshine is as bright as ever. When I have time to take online classes at home, w88 mobile often walks by the river alone with a mask, blowing the breeze. The United States during the epidemic prevention stage allows him to calm down and think about some deeper things, about life and the future.
Every foreign language student will probably have a diplomatic dream in his heart. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also one of the best employment platforms that foreign language students can go to. In w88 mobile's view, this is a place that is very suitable for exerting one's own abilities.
Down-to-earth practitioner
Entering the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is the ideal of many students, but very few people can ultimately realize their ideals and obtain the Ministry of Foreign Affairs pass. And this pass by w88 mobile is called Shushi.
w88 mobile's majors in both undergraduate and graduate studies are both English. Seven years of hard work began with an interest.
However, life is not always smooth sailing. When w88 mobile made the decision to take the postgraduate entrance examination, he failed the exam.
"Write it and grind it, and jade will be achieved." After a year of indulgence and painstaking carving, the wood and stone in my heart finally turned into a dazzling jade. When he saw the notification of successfully landing, he was not only excited, but also relaxed. He could finally embrace the future that should belong to him.
Entering the postgraduate stage, as the knowledge deepens, the difficulty of learning has also increased greatly. Learning the interpretation major requires more time and energy than when you are in undergraduate studies. Unlike the interests of undergraduates, w88 mobile at this time regarded English as a "vocational skill".
Seven years of study have deepened w88 mobile's understanding of English major. He mentioned: "English learned in undergraduate studies cannot become your skill. Only when you study in depth and master the translation or interpretation skills can you say that English is an advantageous skill that makes you different from others."
"English opens the door to a new world for me"
w88 mobile, who studies majors as hobbies, also encountered a bottleneck period. For a while, he would be confused about "not knowing how to learn".
When talking about how to learn English, w88 mobile said: "English ability is not reflected by the number of certificates, but depends on your ability to use it - whether you can use this tool to achieve the purpose of communicating with the outside world." In his opinion, it is necessary to clarify the "instrumentality" of English, let your English skills "go global", use English skills to understand the latest international and domestic events, and use this as a means to cultivate your international vision. For students who want to enter the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, w88 mobile also gave his suggestions. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a platform that attaches great importance to comprehensive quality. While improving one's professional qualities, it should also attach importance to comprehensive development and the improvement of an international perspective, and shape itself into a "learning talent."
"Down-to-earth, and make no contributions." Looking back on his years of study and life, w88 mobile summarized it with this sentence. He understood the meaning of this sentence better than anyone else in his previous life’s unsatisfactory experience and his experience in the second World War.
