【正确答案】[范文]
Just as the above chart shows, boys and girls have different likes and dislikes when finding a job. For example, 40% of boys want to be a manager while only 15% of girls make such a choice. On the contrary, 45% of girls are eager to be a teacher, with only 5% of boys like this job.
Several reasons account for this phenomenon. Firstly, boys and girls value different things. The position of manager can be regarded as a symbol of success for most boys because in their eyes being a manager means a bright future, good salary. For most girls, they think the profession of teacher features stability and respect. Secondly, according to our tradition, it is reasonable for girls to choose a stable job as their ideal profession and for boys to make more money to support family.
My opinion on this issue is that there is no absolute line between the better or worse, superior or inferior jobs, and we should find a job that suits us.
