原文+答案解析

014.
Are you tired of your job and want to do something different? Do you long to find work that both interests you and pays well? If you answered yes to the questions, we have a suggestion to make: why not train to become a computer programmer?
The world is becoming increasingly computer-based, so there is a great demand for computer programmers. Every day, employers call our school and ask us to send them more students. They want well-trained people to work in their large firms. You could soon be working in the high-tech field of computers and running the office. This is your big chance! Just think about the pay. You'll be earning a lot of money every year. There's the respect you'll get from your friends and family when they discover that you work with computers. So what are you waiting for?
Our school offers night classes, so you can continue at your present job while training at night. You have nothing to lose. Don't forget that doctors and lawyers wanting to change their jobs also come here to learn. Perhaps they know something that you don't.

答案解析:
