My name is Emma, and in today's video I am going to teach you about power verbs

我叫艾瑪，在今天'的視頻中，我要教你關於動力動詞的知識

and why you should be using them on your resume.

以及為什麼你應該在履歷中使用它們。

So this video is very, very good if you are looking for a job or even just looking to

所以這個視頻是非常非常好的，如果你正在找工作，甚至只是在找

become a better communicator.

成為一個更好的溝通者。

So, first of all, what is a power verb?

那麼，首先，什麼是動力動詞？

Well, I have here two examples of a weak verb and a power verb.

好吧，我這裡有兩個弱動詞和強動詞的例子。

So, "did" is an example of a weak verb.

所以，"did"是一個弱動詞的例子。

Okay?

好嗎？

And I've put a sad face beside it.

而我'在旁邊放了一張悲傷的臉。

These are the types of verbs that we don't really want to see on your resume because

這些都是我們不希望在你的履歷上看到的動詞類型，因為

they don't sound strong.

他們聽起來不強。

They make you sound like a weak candidate.

他們讓你聽起來像一個弱小的候選人。

Now, compare this to a word like "implemented".

現在，將其與"已實施"這樣的詞進行比較。

You'll notice the very happy face here.

你會注意到這裡有一張非常開心的臉。

"Implemented" is considered a power verb.

"實施"被認為是一個權力動詞。

When we hear this word, it makes us think of the candidate or the person looking for

當我們聽到這個詞的時候，就會想到考生或者是尋找的人。

the job as a stronger person.

作為一個更強的人的工作。

So, on your resume you want to use power verbs.

所以，在你的履歷上，你要使用動力動詞。

So I will teach you a whole bunch of different power verbs and we will go over many examples,

所以我會教你一大堆不同的動力動詞，我們會講很多例子。

but before I do that I just wanted to give a couple of pieces of advice about when you

但在我這樣做之前，我只是想給一對夫婦的建議，關於當你

write your resume.

寫你的履歷。

Okay?

好嗎？

So, my first piece of advice, as I've already said: Use power verbs.

所以，我的第一個建議，我&#39；已經說過了。使用動力動詞。

Very important.

非常重要。

My second piece of advice: Understand how to use the power verbs.

我的第二個建議。瞭解如何使用權力動詞。

Okay?

好嗎？

You don't want to make a mistake on your resume, and so you need to make sure that if you use

你不想在你的履歷上出錯，所以你需要確保如果你使用了

a word like "implemented", you use it correctly.

像"實施"這樣的詞，你用對了。

It's very important that you use these words correctly and you know when to use it.

你正確使用這些詞，知道什麼時候用，這是非常重要的。

So make sure you understand the meaning totally before you use the word.

所以在使用這個詞之前，一定要完全理解其含義。

Maybe check with a dictionary, or if you have a friend maybe they can look at your resume, too.

也許可以查字典，或者如果你有朋友也許他們也可以看你的履歷。

This leads to my next point: No mistakes on your resume.

這就引出了我的下一個觀點。履歷上不能有錯誤

Your resume needs to be perfect.

你的履歷需要完美。

If you have mistakes people will not want to hire you for a job.

如果你有錯誤，人們就不會願意僱用你來工作。

So make sure that you check these power verbs for their spelling.

所以一定要檢查這些動力動詞的拼寫。

Okay? They should be spelt correctly, and make sure you check them for grammar mistakes.

好嗎？他們應該拼寫正確，並確保你檢查他們的語法錯誤。

Okay?

好嗎？

You should look at it first, and then find a friend or a teacher to look at it after

你應該先看，看完後再找朋友或老師看。

you do to make sure there's no mistakes.

你做，以確保有&#39；沒有錯誤。

Okay, the next piece of advice I have for you is: Be specific on your resume.

好了，接下來我給你的建議是：履歷上的內容要具體。

So when we are using power verbs, for example, I have here a power verb "increased".

所以我們在使用動力動詞的時候，比如說，我這裡有一個動力動詞"增加"。

Okay?

好嗎？

"Increased gross sales by 4%."

"銷售總額增加4%.&quot。

So you might see this on a resume.

所以你可能會在履歷上看到這個。

And now, how is it specific?

而現在，它是如何具體的？

Well, I say specifically what I've done.

好吧，我具體說說我做了什麼'。

So imagine I work for a company and I sell some sort of product.

所以想象一下，我在一家公司工作，我銷售某種產品。

This is what I did, I increased gross sales by 4%.

我就是這麼做的，我把銷售總額增加了4%。

So if you helped a certain number of people, you can write down that number.

所以，如果你幫助了一定數量的人，你可以寫下這個數字。

If you did something by a certain percentage, you can write that down.

如果你做了某件事情的百分比，你可以寫下來。

The more specific, the better.

越具體越好。

Okay?

好嗎？

Another thing to know about when you write a resume is in a lot of areas, especially

在寫履歷的時候，還有一點要知道，就是在很多方面，尤其是

under work summary, you will be using bullet points.

在工作總結下，你將使用要點。

Okay?

好嗎？

So, what's a bullet?

那麼，什麼是子彈？

This is a bullet.

這是一顆子彈。

Okay? So these are all bullets.

好嗎？所以這些都是子彈。

They're just dots, and beside it we write what we did.

他們'只是點，旁邊我們寫著我們做了什麼。

Another piece of advice is you should be using a lot of variety on your resume, especially

另一個建議是，你應該在履歷上使用大量的品種，尤其是

with power verbs.

與動力動詞。

You don't want to keep using the same verb.

你不要一直用同一個動詞。

Okay?

好嗎？

So you do not want to write "implemented" 10 times on your resume.

所以你不希望在履歷上寫上"實施"10次。

You want to show that you have a lot of different verbs you know how to use, so try to use variety.

你想表明你有很多不同的動詞，你知道如何使用，所以儘量使用多樣性。

Use: "implemented", "initiated", "developed".

使用："實施"，"發起"，"發展"。

We're going to look at a lot of different power verbs that you can use, so try to use

我們要看很多不同的動力動詞，你可以使用，所以儘量使用。

a lot of different ones instead of the same one again and again and again.

很多不同的，而不是一次又一次的相同。

Okay, and my final tip is about the grammar of power verbs.

好的，我的最後一個提示是關於動力動詞的文法。

Your resume, especially under work summary but also in other areas as well, we often

你的履歷，特別是在工作總結下，但在其他方面也是如此，我們經常是

use the past tense.

用過去式。

Okay?

好嗎？

So a lot of the times you will see on a resume a bullet point with a verb in the past tense.

所以很多時候，你會在履歷上看到一個帶動詞的項目點，是過去式。

Often that means with "ed".

通常這意味著與"ed"。

So if you used to work for a company in the past, you might say:

所以如果你過去在一家公司工作，你可能會說。

"Increased gross sales by 4%."

"銷售總額增加4%.&quot。

So you might use the past...

所以你可以用過去的...

The simple past tense.

簡單的過去式。

You'll also notice I don't write "I" here.

你也會注意到我沒有在這裡寫"我"。

I did not write: "I increased".

我沒有寫："我增加了"。

A lot of the times on our resumes we do not use the subject, we do not use "I", we actually

很多時候在我們的履歷上，我們不用主語，不用"I"，我們其實是

just write the verb.

就寫動詞。

So you'll see a lot of things like this: "Increased gross sales by 4%."

所以你'會看到很多這樣的事情："增加4%的銷售總額.&quot。

Now, if you still work for the same company...

如果你還在同一家公司工作... ...

So imagine if I still work at a school, then instead of using the past tense I can use

所以試想一下，如果我還在學校工作，那麼我可以不用過去式，而是用

the present.

現在的。

So we use the past for previous or past work experience, but if you're still working at

所以我們用過去的以前或過去的工作經驗，但如果你'還在工作。

the same place you can use the present tense.

同樣的地方，你可以用現在時。

So this is important, past or present tense, you can use both on your resume.

所以這個很重要，過去式或現在式，你可以在履歷上同時使用。

So now let's look at some examples of power verbs and how to use them.

那麼現在讓我們來看看一些動力動詞的例子以及如何使用它們。

Okay, so let's look at the first set of power verbs.

好了，我們來看看第一組動力動詞。

So we have here the word "did" or "do".

所以我們這裡有"did"或者"do"這個詞。

And again, this is a pretty weak verb to use on your resume.

而這又是一個很弱的動詞，用在你的履歷上。

I would try to avoid it where possible.

我會盡可能地避免它。

And instead, I would use a power verb.

而我則會用一個強力動詞。

So I have here just some power verbs that can mean the same thing as "did", although

所以我這裡只有一些動力動詞，可以和"did"的意思一樣，不過

some of these have maybe additional meanings.

其中一些也許有額外的含義。

So, again, it's good to check your dictionary, but these are all somewhat synonyms of "did".

所以，再一次，檢查你的字典是好的，但這些都是"did"的某種同義詞。

So we have the word "implemented", and again, this is in the past tense.

所以我們有"實施"這個詞，同樣是過去式。

I have a bullet point here.

我這裡有一個要點。

I don't use the word "I", especially if it's work summary.

我不用"我"這個詞，尤其是當它&39;工作總結的時候。

And I wrote: "I..."

而我寫道："我......&quot。

Or, sorry, I didn't write "I".

或者，對不起，我沒有寫"我"。

I wrote: "Implemented a new system to better serve customers."

我寫道："實施了一個新的系統，以更好地服務於客戶.&quot。

So this is an example of something I might write on my resume if it were true.

所以這是一個例子，如果是真的，我可能會在履歷上寫一些東西。

"Implemented" pretty much has the same meaning as "created" or "put into place".

"實施"與"創造"或"到位"的意思差不多。

So: "I implemented a new system to better serve customers."

所以："我實施了一個新的系統，以更好地服務於客戶.&quot。

You might see something like that on a resume.

你可能會在履歷上看到這樣的東西。

We have another power verb: "handle".

我們還有一個動力動詞："處理"。

Okay?

好嗎？

"Executed", "carried out", "processed",

"執行"，"進行"，"處理"。

"initiated", "facilitated", "conducted".

"發起"，"促進"，"進行"。

These are all very strong words that are similar to "did" and can, depending on the sentence

這些都是很強的詞，類似於"did"，根據句子的不同，可

you're writing, can possibly create the word "did".

你'在寫，可以可能創造出"did"這個詞。

Okay? So, again, use a dictionary to make sure that your sentence makes sense for what you're

好嗎？所以，再次，使用字典，以確保你的句子是有意義的你'。

trying to say.

想說。

But these are all great power verbs to use on a resume.

但這些都是履歷上很好用的力量動詞。

One other thing I wanted to say, again, is you'll notice most of these have "ed".

我想說的另一件事，再次，是你'會注意到這些大多數都有"ed"。

So we often use the past tense, as I said before, on our resume.

所以我們在履歷上經常用過去式，就像我之前說的那樣。

But if we are still doing something, it's a part of the job we're doing now, we can

但如果我們還在做一些事情，這是我們現在所做的工作的一部分，我們可以

actually use the present tense, so in this case an "s".

其實用的是現在時態，所以在這種情況下，一個"s"。

So, for example, imagine if I handle customer complaints.

所以，舉個例子，想象一下，如果我處理客戶投訴。

I can write on my resume: "Handles customer complaints" or "Handles refunds".

我可以在履歷上寫："處理客戶投訴"或"處理退款"。

Okay?

好嗎？

So these are all great power verbs to use.

所以這些都是很好用的力量動詞。

Now let's look at some other ones that are great for your resume.

現在讓我們看看其他一些對你的履歷很有幫助的。

Okay, so we have another weak verb: "made" or "make" that many students might want to

好了，我們還有一個弱動詞："made"或"make"，很多同學可能要

use on a resume.

用在履歷上。

This is not a good verb to use on a resume.

這不是一個好的動詞，可以用在履歷上。

Instead, we have a lot of different synonyms or things that mean similar to "make" or are

相反，我們有很多不同的同義詞或類似於"make"的東西，或者是

very close in meaning that are power verbs and better to use.

在意義上非常接近，是動力動詞，比較好用。

So we have: "developed", we have "produced", "devised", "formulated",

所以我們有："發展"，我們有"生產"，"設計"，"制定"。

"established", "created", "fostered", and this one "designed".

"建立"，"創造"，"培養"，這個"設計"。

Here I actually have an example of how we would use a power verb on our resume.

在這裡，我其實有一個例子，我們會在履歷上使用一個動力動詞。

So we might say something like:

所以我們可以說這樣的話。

"Designed PowerPoint presentations on best customer service practices.",

"設計關於最佳客戶服務實踐的PowerPoint演示文稿."。

"Designed PowerPoint presentations for our weekly meeting."

"為我們每週的會議設計了PowerPoint演示文稿."

Okay? So there's many things you can use with all of these things...

好嗎？所以有很多東西你可以用這些東西... ...

Or with all of these verbs, but again, try to use power verbs wherever you can.

或者用這些動詞都可以，但同樣，儘量在能用的地方用力量動詞。

Okay, so our next verb is "help".

好的，所以我們下一個動詞是"幫助"。

"Help" is okay to use on a resume, but you know, again you want variety on your resume

"幫助"可以用在履歷上，但你知道，你又想在履歷上有多種選擇

so there are some power verbs that can really help you with this.

所以有一些動力動詞，可以真正幫助你解決這個問題。

"Assisted" is great.

"輔助"是偉大的。

So a lot of the times at work you assist people in different jobs or projects.

所以在工作中很多時候你會協助別人完成不同的工作或項目。

In this case I've given the example: "Assisted veterinarians in the care of animals."

在這種情況下，我'已經給出了例子："協助獸醫照顧動物.&quot。

"Aided", "demonstrated", "provided".

"輔助"，"示範"，"提供"。

And again, there are many more.

同樣，還有很多。

These are just an example of some of the power verbs you can use.

這些只是你可以使用的一些動力動詞的例子。

Okay, next up we have "led".

好了，接下來我們有"led"。

So, again, "led" is also okay to use on a resume, but if you're looking for variety

所以，同樣，"led"在履歷上使用也是可以的，但如果你'要尋求多樣性的話

and you want something more than just "led"...

你想要的東西不僅僅是"led"。

And "led" is pretty much "lead", it's the past tense of "lead", so this is for anyone

而"led"幾乎是"lead"，它是"lead"的過去式，所以這是給任何人用的

who is a leader in their place of work or a boss, or they have people who work for them.

誰是他們工作場所的上司或老闆，或者他們有為他們工作的人。

You can use these verbs.

你可以用這些動詞。

So we have: "managed", "coordinated".

所以我們有："管理"，"協調"。

I really like "coordinated". You...

我很喜歡"協調"。你...

This is a very, very common one to use on resumes.

這是履歷上非常非常常見的一種。

"Supervised", "oversaw".

"監督"，"監管"。

In this case I have the example:

在這種情況下，我有例子。

"Oversaw the daily operations of a nuclear power plant."

"監督核電站的日常營運.&quot。

Okay?

好嗎？

We have: "spearheaded" and "directed".

我們有："帶頭"和"指導"。

So just some examples of power verbs that look great on your resume.

所以就舉一些在履歷上很好看的力量動詞的例子。

Now let's look at some more.

現在讓我們'再看一些。

So, "researched" is a great word and there are a lot of power verbs that also are similar to "research".

所以，"researched"是一個很好的詞，有很多動力動詞也與"research"類似。

We have "analyzed".

我們已經"分析了"。

In this case I've given an example:

在這種情況下，我'舉了一個例子。

"Analyzed trends and reported on opportunities for growth."

"分析趨勢並報告增長的機會&quot。

A lot of what we do at work is analyzing, so "analyzed" is a great one for your resume.

我們在工作中做的很多事情都是分析，所以"分析"是你履歷中很好的一個。

"Diagnosed", "measured".

"診斷"，"測量"。

Okay?

好嗎？

So, again, there are tons of power verbs.

所以，又有大量的動力動詞。

These are just a couple of examples.

這只是幾個例子。

For "organized".

對於"有組織"。

A lot of the times on resumes we're talking about how we organize something, so we can say: "maintained".

很多時候在履歷上我們'都在談論我們如何組織一些東西，所以我們可以說："維護"。

In this case: "Maintained a database for over two thousand customers."

在這個案例中："維護了一個兩千多客戶的數據庫&quot。

And, again, notice how specific I am being.

而且，再一次注意到我是多麼的具體。

Okay?

好嗎？

"Arranged", another word that has to do with organization.

"安排"，又是一個與組織有關的詞。

"Communicated" is also a great verb to use, and there are a lot of ways to say "communicated".

"communicated"也是一個很好用的動詞，有很多方法可以說"communicated"。

The problem is on a resume we often use the word "communicate", so it's good to have a

問題是在履歷上我們經常會用到"溝通"這個詞，所以在履歷上有一個"溝通"就好了。

lot of power verbs that have similar meanings.

很多動力動詞都有類似的意思。

I have "collaborated":

我有"合作"。

"Collaborated with other departments on special projects.",

"與其他部門合作開展特殊項目."。

"Collaborated with a team of, you know, 20 people on this project for my company."

"與一個團隊合作，你知道，20人在這個項目上為我的公司.&quot。

Okay?

好嗎？

So, "collaborate" is a very good verb to use.

所以，"合作"是一個非常好用的動詞。

"Reported", "highlighted".

"報告"，"突出"。

So these all have to do with communication and there are many more.

所以這些都與溝通有關，還有很多。

Now let's look at some power verbs that have to do with getting results.

現在讓我們來看看一些與得到結果有關的動力動詞。

Okay, so if you have done something at your work where you've gotten results, where you've

好的，如果你在你的工作中做了一些事情，在那裡你得到了結果，在那裡你've

improved the company in some way, or where you've increased sales, or you've done something

在某種程度上改善了公司，或者你增加了銷售額，或者你做了一些事情。

and you've accomplished something, this is very good to mention in your resume.

而你'已經取得了一些成就，這在你的履歷中是非常好的提及。

So next we're going to look at some English for that.

所以接下來我們'要看一些英語的內容。

So we have: "Got results".

所以我們有："得到了結果"。

This isn't really a good way to phrase what we're talking about.

這不是一個真正的好辦法來表達我們'說的是什麼。

It's better to use a power verb.

最好是用力量動詞。

Okay? So if you increased business, you can say that:

好嗎？所以，如果你增加了業務，你可以說。

"Increased gross sales by 4%.", "generated":

"增加了4%的銷售總額."，"產生了"。

"Generated some new business for the company.",

"為公司帶來了一些新的業務."。

"Identified new markets",

"確定了新的市場"。

"strengthened".

"加強了"。

Maybe you strengthened the relationship between your store and another store.

也許你加強了你的商店和另一個商店之間的關係。

"Improved", "accomplished".

"改進了"，"完成了"。

So these are very, like, great power verbs to use on your resume.

所以，這些都是非常，喜歡，偉大的力量動詞使用在你的履歷。

For some of you, maybe you used some sort of machinery at work.

對於一些人來說，也許你在工作中使用了某種機械。

So, "used" is a weak verb, just like "did" and "make".

所以，"used"是一個弱動詞，就像"did"和"make"一樣。

There are way better power verbs to use.

有更好的動力動詞可以用。

And the one I'm going to leave you with today is "operated".

而我今天要留給大家的是"營運"。

A lot of the times when we're talking about machines we use the word "operated".
