如果你看过电视上的DIY网络，凯琳·麦卡比的脸你可能会认出。她是“拯救翻新”节目的主持人和明星，该节目旨在帮助陷入困境的房主。改造项目从灾难性的“之前”变成了令人瞠目结舌的“之后”。TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA2WhenKayleenisnotinfrontofthecamera,she’stravelingthecountrytellingstudentsthestoryofhowherlong-timeconstructionhobbyturnedintoasuccessfulcareer.

当凯琳不在镜头前时，她正在全国各地向学生讲述她长期的建筑爱好如何转变为成功的职业生涯。TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA3“Asalittlegirl,Iwasalwaysbuildingstuffwithmyhands,”Kayleensays.“Mydadwasawelder,soIlearnedalotfromhim.Wedidrepairsaroundthehouse,builtfences,andworkedoncarstogether.Ididn’trealizehowuniquethatwasuntilhighschool.”

“作为一个小女孩，我总是用手做东西，”

凯琳说。“我父亲是一名焊工，所以我从他那里学到了很多知识。我们一起修理房子，建造栅栏，一起修理汽车。直到高中我才意识到这有多么独特，”凯琳说。TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA

凯琳说她的大多数同学都不知道毕业后想做什么，凯琳不一样。即使在那时，她也知道她想在建筑行业工作。4Mostofherclassmateshadnoideawhattheywantedtodoaftergraduation,butshewasdifferent.Sheknewthatshewantedtoworkintheconstructiontrade.TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA5Despiteknowingshewantedacareerinconstruction,Kayleendidn’tenrollintradeschoolafterhighschool.“Imadegoodgrades,”shesays,“andIfeltpressuretodowhattheother‘goodstudents’did—gotocollege.”

虽然凯琳知道她想从事建筑业，但高中毕业后她没有进入贸易学校。“我取得了好成绩，”她说，“我感到有压力去做其他‘好学生’所做的事情：上大学。”

TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA

在两所学校学习一年后，凯琳打电话给她的父母，告诉他们一些最终对他们来说并不意外的消息：大学不适合她。凯琳开玩笑说：“如果我早一点遵循这种直觉，我本可以省下很多学费。”

“我非常感激，当我最终这么做的时候，我的父母都支持我。”6Afterstudyingintwoschoolsforoneyear,Kayleencalledherparentswithsomenewsthatultimatelywasn’tasurprisetothem:Collegewasn’tforher.“Icouldhavesavedalotoftuitionmoneybyfollowingthatinstinctearlier,”Kayleensaysjokingly.“IamsogratefulthatwhenIeventuallydid,myparentsweresupportive.”TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA7Shortlyaftergraduatingfromhighschool,hercousincalledherwithaproposition.“ShewasaproducerontheTVshowTradingSpaces.SheknewIlikedworkingwithmyhands,andshesaidshecouldhelpmegetaproductionassistantjob.”

凯琳说，高中毕业后不久，她的表妹打电话给她，提出了一个建议。“她是电视节目《交易空间》的制片人。她知道我喜欢用手工作，她说她可以帮我找到一份制作助理的工作。”TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA8Fromherveryfirstdayontheset,Kayleenwashooked.“Iwouldgetupat5a.m.withtheexcitementaboutwhateverwegottobuildnext.ItwasthefirsttimeIfellinlove.”

凯琳说，从她在片场的第一天起，她就被迷住了。“我会在早上5点从床上跳起来，兴奋地为下一步要建造的东西而颤抖。这是我第一次坠入爱河。”TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA9OnthesetofTradingSpaces,KayleenmetamastercraftsmannamedFrank.“Hewasthisgrumpy-lookingoldguywithabigbushymustachethatwaspermanentlystainedbytobacco.ButhetaughtmemorethanIcouldeverexplain.Icouldaskhimanything,andheencouragedmetolearn,totry,andmostimportantly,tofail.

在《交易空间》中，凯琳遇到了一位名叫弗兰克的工匠大师。凯琳说：“他是一个脾气暴躁的老家伙，留着浓密的大胡子，被烟草永久性地熏染了。但他教给我的比我能解释的更多。我可以问他任何问题，他鼓励我去学习，去尝试，最重要的是，去失败。”TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA10“BeinginanenvironmentwhereIfeltsafetodoanythingwasthebestgiftIeverreceived.AndlearningthewaythatIdidthejobwasmoreofaneducationthanIcouldeverhavegottenfromcollege,”Kayleensays.

“在一个让我感到安全的环境中这样做是我收到的最好的礼物。学习我在工作中做事的方式比我上大学所能获得的更多的是一种教育。”凯琳说。

TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA11RescueRenovationiscurrentlyinitsfifthseasononTV.Kayleenisimmenselygratefulforhercontinuedsuccess—especiallyinafieldthatistraditionallydominatedbymen.“Whentheshowfirststarted,Iwasoneoftheonlyfemalehostsonourchannel—oranyotherone.It’sdifferentnow,andIcan’twaitforthattokeepchanging.”“救援翻新”目前已经是第五季了。凯琳说，她非常感谢自己的持续成功，尤其是在一个传统上由男性主导的领域。“节目刚开始时，我是我们频道或其他频道唯一的女性主持人之一。现在不一样了，我等不及了。”

TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA12Whenshetravelsforhershow,sheisoftenabletohelpdrivethatchange.“Tothebestofmyability,”shesays,“IwillcontinuetoleveragewhatI’vegarneredtohelprecruitmoreandmoreyoungwomentogetintotheconstructiontrades.”

当她为她的演出而旅行时，她经常能够帮助推动这种变化。“我喜欢尽可能多地利用机票。我会找出机场附近有哪些学校，然后打电话给他们。我会说，‘嗨，我是一名从事这一行业的女性，我能来和你的孩子谈谈我所在领域的职业机会吗？’尽我所能，”凯琳说。TextAReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextA13Kayleenisconstantlythinkingaboutthefuture—forherselfandfortheconstructiontradesoverall.“IwanttodoublethenumberofstudentsItalktoeveryyear,”Kayleensays.

凯琳一直在考虑自己和整个建筑行业的未来。她说：“我希望每年与学生交谈的人数翻一番……直到这成为不可能。”TextANotesGroupDiscussionTextA1“Icouldhavesavedalotoftuitionmoneybyfollowingthatinstinctearlier,”Kayleensaysjokingly.(Para.6)

凯琳开玩笑说：“如果早一点跟着直觉走，我本可以省下很多学费。”这是一个含有虚拟语气的句子，byfollowingthatinstinctearlier相当于条件句ifIhadfollowedthatinstinctearlier。e.g.WhatwouldIhavedonewithoutyou?如果没有你，我会做什么呢？TextANotesGroupDiscussionTextA2Iwouldgetupat5a.m.withtheexcitementaboutwhateverwegottobuildnext.(Para.8)我会早上5点起床，为下一步要建造的任何东西而兴奋。

whateverwegottobuildnext是名词性从句，作介词about的宾语。

e.g.Ihaven’ttheleastinterestinwhateverheisdoing.我对他在干什么毫无兴趣。TextANotesGroupDiscussionTextA3BeinginanenvironmentwhereIfeltsafetodoanythingwasthebestgiftIeverreceived.(Para.10)身处一个我感觉做任何事都很安全的环境是我收到的最好的礼物。whereIfeltsafetodoanything是限制性定语从句，修饰先行词anenvironment。

e.g.Hehasreachedthepointwhereachangeisneeded.他已到了需要改弦易辙的地步。

TextANotesGroupDiscussionTextA4IwillcontinuetoleveragewhatI’vegarneredtohelprecruitmoreandmoreyoungwomentogetintotheconstructiontrades.(Para.12)我将继续充分利用我所收集到的信息帮助招收越来越多的年轻女性加入建筑行业。句中whatI’vegarnered是名词性从句，作leverage的宾语；tohelprecruitmoreandmoreyoungwomentogetintotheconstructiontrades作目的状语。

e.g.Hecuppedhishandaroundhiseartohearbetter.他把手拢在耳边，以便听得更清楚些。TextAGroupDiscussionTextA1WhatroledidinterestplayinKayleen’scareerchoice?

从一开始就跟着爸爸霍莉·托马斯说：“作为一个小女孩，我确实在追随父亲的脚步。木工一直是他的爱好，我们住的每栋房子里他都有一个作坊。我跟着他到处走，看着他用木头做东西，一路上问了很多问题。”这种方法在霍莉晚年的生活中起到了很好的作用。TextBReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextBGoingtoCollegelikeDad

像爸爸一样上大学

到了申请大学的时候，霍莉说她又一次了追随父亲的脚步。“我在密西西比州注册，就像他几十年前一样。但我很快就明白，大学不适合我。”大学一年级后，霍莉离开密西西比州，搬回家和父母住在一起。“那时，我不知道我想在职业生涯中做什么，”霍莉说，“但我确信传统的四年制学位不是正确的道路。”TextBReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextB

找到自己的路

在家里进行了几个月的自我反省之后，霍莉说她就自己的未来与父亲进行了一次谈话。“他告诉我他在当地社区学院听说过一个机器人项目，”霍莉说，“我一直喜欢用我的双手工作，也一直信任我的父亲，所以我约了个时间和项目总监谈谈。”霍莉说她的直觉被证明是正确的。“谈话结束后，我报名上课。”ReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextB

学位要求霍莉说，在她两年制的机器人学课程开始一年半后，她有了一个惊人的发现。“当我审查毕业的课程要求时，我看到名单上有一门焊接课程。我心里想，‘我不想这么做。我可能会和一群臭烘烘的家伙待在一家火辣店里。’但这是我有生以来第一次真正享受到上学的乐趣，我离最终获得学位太近了，所以我咬紧牙关报名了。”TextBReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextB

意外的热爱焊接课的第一天，霍莉说她穿着短裤和人字拖出现了。她说：“我很快就知道这不是合适的着装。”霍莉说，在最初的小问题之后，一切都变了。“上课的第二周，我们第一次去商店焊接。我第一次划弧线时就爱上了它。在我获得两年学位后，我又多呆了一年，以获得完整的焊接证书。”TextBReadingthroughGroupDiscussionTextB
