I knew that I wanted to work in the field of my major, public relations. But I also knew that it was difficult to find a position considering my inexperience. That was when I decided to pursue an internship (实习工作)． So I chose to talk to my advisor first. He had worked in the field of public relations for many years before he became a professor, and therefore had numerous contacts and associates in the field. After talking to him about a few of the positions, I decided to pursue the Cincinnati Fine Arts Fund because of my interest in the arts and the passion I would feel working for a non-profit organization. I sent out a cover letter and a resume and was hired on the spot in the interview. I soon began my position. After class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I would drive to work and apply all the skills I was learning in the classroom. I was amazed at the amount of practical knowledge in class that was directly applicable to my internship position. It became a very useful and beneficial experience. Not only was I working for arts organizations and seeing my name printed on documents I had created, but also gaining confidence in my skills and myself. As the semester came to a close, I finished my work with the Fine Arts Fund. Although I didnt take away any money for the internship, I gained many different kinds of experience and the knowledge that I was capable of accomplishing professional tasks. And that kind of confidence was invaluable to me as I sat down to interview for my next internship. 【语篇解读】　作者上大三时就开始考虑自己的未来，考虑到实习经验在就业中的重要性，作者在导师的建议下找到了个实习岗位，尽管没有挣到钱，但是所积累的经验让作者感觉到很值得。 词汇小得　①applicable adj.可用的；②invaluable adj.无价的；③come to a close结束 1．Why did the author seek an internship first before graduation?
