For the employee, being placed in a position that is comfortable and meets expectations will make the job less stressful and allow a more positive outlook toward responsibilities. It beats the alternative, as going to a job that you are unhappy with could lead to fatigue, burn out, depression and stress. This affects more than just your 9-to-5 routine—it can hurt your family relationships, diminish friendships, and even make you turn to addictive and destructive behaviors like alcohol or drugs. The US Department of Labor suggests that jobseekers prepare for an employment search by understanding themselves and being honest about what they want and expect. Make a list of things you like to do, examine your history and evaluate the jobs and classes you enjoyed the most and why, look over your resume and see what duties your past jobs included, and be honest about what is appealing to you about the particular position you are considering. "I do believe that understanding yourself and your personality type preferences can make all the difference when it comes to finding a career that you love," says Roberts, a certified career management coach with CareerMasters in Maine. The Labor Department offers several simplified recommendations created for high school students: If you are good at math, then look toward occupations like statistician, engineer, surveyor or actuary (保险精算师). If you love to read or write, consider becoming a librarian, desktop publisher, writer or administrative assistant. Music and arts lovers should look into acting, visual arts, music or design work. Students who enjoyed social studies can become politicians, urban planners, historians or human resource assistants. Other considerations that might be significant: Do you enjoy helping people, working with your hands, or interacting with nature? Is it your preference to work alone or in a group? Employees who are unhappy with their current positions, don't like their work environment, feel underappreciated, or believe there is no room for advancement, owe it to themselves to consider whether changing careers is a practical alternative. "Looking back and analyzing their current situation and the career path they have followed is essential to making good career decisions in the future," Roberts explains.

元代(the Yuan Dynasty)是中国瓷器(porcelain)发展史上一个重要的时期。基于先前朝代的烧制技术，景德镇成功地制作出青花瓷(the blue and white porcelain)。元青花瓷富丽雄浑，其风格与传统的瓷器大相径庭。元青花瓷的出现也使景德镇成为当时世界制瓷业的中心。元青花瓷制作精美而且传世极少，因此异常珍贵。青花瓷的制作在明清两朝(the Ming and Qing Dynasties)得到进一步发展，其中的精品是许多收藏家的终极目标。
