　　Certi cation: A Way to Prove Oneself

　　For a growing number of Chinese people, the most productive thing to do with one’s spare time is to study for some kind of certification. From languages to business skills to teaching, certi cations act as proof of one’s interest, attitude and ability. More and more, a resume with degrees and work experiences looks a bit boring; certi cations are like accessories —they complete the out t.

　　引言部分：作者提出了考證熱這個現(xiàn)象，并亮出觀點：證書是一個人興趣愛好 、學(xué)習(xí)態(tài)度和學(xué)習(xí)能力的證明，因此 ，概括了主體部分將重點論述的方面。

　　Certifications accomplish several purposes. First, they show employers that one is diversi ed. While one’s interest is not limited to only one major, he will win himself more chances of jobs than others, which is likely to result in a good-paying job and better employability. Besides, certi cations indicate that the owner is proactive; he is not sitting around in his spare time. Instead, he is constantly looking to improve himself. This is what sets one applicant apart from the rest when applying for a sought-after position.

　　What’s more important is that the certifications prove that the person has great potential as he is good at study and has a good sense of balance. He has made an effort to learn more skills while keeping focused on his major or occupation.

　　主體部分：作者采用的是總分式結(jié)構(gòu)，先概述證書能起到幾個作用 ，然后具體分述了三方面的作用：證書證明興趣廣泛，可以帶來更多工作機會；說明態(tài)度積極進取，給人更好的印象表明學(xué)習(xí)能力出眾，有潛力。

　　All in all, certifications give students more con dence in the job market as they demonstrate that the owners have wider interest, more proactive attitude and stronger learning ability.

　　總結(jié)部分：作者用all in all自然過渡到結(jié)尾段落，并再次概述證書的作用，可以給學(xué)生帶來更多自信。
