2 .Hi, Paul. I\'m glad you could stop by during exam week at all.
该句暂无译文！
3 .no problem. I\'m pretty much caught up with all my studying.
该句暂无译文！
4 .So Okay.
该句暂无译文！
5 .Well, you know, it\'s time to officially declare your major field of study.
该句暂无译文！
6 .Have you given it some thoughts? yeah, lots.
该句暂无译文！
7 .But here\'s the thing, I love all my history courses, but after I graduate from here, I\'d really like to be a social worker.
该句暂无译文！
8 .and I\'m not sure history\'s the best preparation for that.
该句暂无译文！
9 .So what\'s wrong with getting an undergraduate degree in social work.
该句暂无译文！
10 .declaring that your major?
该句暂无译文！
11 .It\'s just that, well, I\'ve heard so much about how a liberal arts background, like in history and literature, can be useful in so many careers.
该句暂无译文！
12 .and I\'ve always been interested in history.
该句暂无译文！
13 .Well, for a career in social work, you\'d need to go to graduate school.
该句暂无译文！
14 .to get an advanced degree.
该句暂无译文！
15 .which would mean a few more years’ school after you graduate from here,
该句暂无译文！
16 .but you can get into a graduate program in social work without majoring in social work as an undergraduate.
该句暂无译文！
17 .But a major in social work might be preferable, right?
该句暂无译文！
18 .In some cases, maybe.
该句暂无译文！
19 .But students with an undergraduate major in one of the liberal arts.
该句暂无译文！
20 .have other advantages.
该句暂无译文！
21 .They gain the kind of general knowledge and skills.
该句暂无译文！
22 .like analytical thinking, communication and such that would serve in almost any career.
该句暂无译文！
23 .Majoring in history might serve you well if you think you might eventually want an advanced degree later on.
该句暂无译文！
24 .and want to go to graduate school in social work or some other profession.
该句暂无译文！
25 .So you\'re saying, I should.
该句暂无译文！
26 .No, no, not should. The decision about your undergraduate major is a very important one.
该句暂无译文！
27 .but it\'s very personal.
该句暂无译文！
28 .You\'re the one who knows best what you want to do after you graduate.
该句暂无译文！
29 .and how you want to get there.
该句暂无译文！
30 .Okay, so a social work major, I might get a better idea of what to expect in the actual job I\'d wind up with.
该句暂无译文！
31 .but liberal arts stuff.
该句暂无译文！
32 .like history and English.
该句暂无译文！
33 .I do need to work on my writing and analytical skills.
该句暂无译文！
34 .Do you think I\'d have enough time in my schedule to take courses in social work, but still major in history?
该句暂无译文！
35 .A lot of Social Work courses have a field work component.
该句暂无译文！
36 .doing an internship several hours a week.
该句暂无译文！
37 .observing and assisting an experienced social worker at an institution or government agency.
该句暂无译文！
38 .that part sounds worth the extra time.
该句暂无译文！
39 .and I don\'t mind hard work.
该句暂无译文！
40 .so if I fulfill all the history major requirements.
该句暂无译文！
41 .and choose Social Work courses for my electives outside the major.
该句暂无译文！
42 .along with maybe some writing,sounds ambitious, Paul, but doable.
该句暂无译文！
43 .so I\'ll sign you up for a major in history then.
