    With the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games drawing near, many Olympics-related job vacancies are open to job-seekers, according to the Beijing Times.
The job market needs talents who master English and have gone through professional educations in sports, tourism or marketing, the paper said.
In addition, more than 600 new job positions, such as Olympic venue managers, Olympic licensed product distributors, logistics center managers and Olympic logistics dispatchers, are awaiting competent contenders.
As far as translators are concerned, the current supply can only satisfy 30% of the demand, Huang Youyi, vice-director of the China International Publishing Group was quoted as saying. His agency, which currently employs 600 translators, needs about 1,000 more.
The market seeks mainly interpreters who can translate Chinese into English. To remedy the present shortage, 15 famous universities across the nation, including Peking University and Beijing Foreign Studies University, plan to enroll 200-400 master degree candidates in interpretation in October.
The Olympics have brought about a boom in the tourism industry and the supply of employees lags behind the demand. Employers sought a total of 5,017 tourism professionals on the website of a consultancy agency in July, compared to only 2,411 a year before.
            听力和书面表达通常是我们学生的弱项，希望大家在英语朗读的方法下，并结合实际情况安排练习，不要一味模仿别人，要在练习过程中及时总结经验，包括时间安排等，让自己的考研英语水平得到一个很大的提升！
