According to CareerCast.com, the website released its Jobs Rated List, a ranking of the 200 best and worst jobs of 2013. Which job might have people reconsidering their career path?

With low salary prospects, tight deadlines, and a 24/7 news environment, newspaper writing is a demanding job, with a negative employment growth. Newspapers have been closing by the dozens and those that are still open face continual contraction as revenue dwindles and ads migrate to the Internet. Even lumberjacks and soldiers, whose jobs were ranked as worse in past years, have improved in CareerCast's criteria compared with newspaper writers. For lumberjacks, the higher demand for lumber has given them a positive employment growth. As for the best job of 2013, actuaries can happily keep their day job. According to CareerCast, actuaries are in high demand, with a great work environment and high salary.

美国求职网站CareerCast近日公布了2013年美国职业排行榜，该网站职业排行榜的评价标准主要有四点：环境、收入、前景及压力等。报纸记者因薪水低、任务紧、需随时待命等因素成为年度最差职业，而近年需求持续走高的精算师因优良的工作环境和高薪被评为年度最佳职业。

Worst Jobs in 2013

2013年度十大最差职业

1. Newspaper Reporter 报纸记者

BLS(劳工统计局Bureau of Labor Statistics) National Salary Median: $36,000

Projected Job Growth: -6%

A job that has lost its luster dramatically over the past five years is expected to plummet even further by 2020. Someone even said, “The print model is not sustainable. It will probably be gone within the next 10 years.”

就调查数据上看，报纸记者的收入在目前来说不是最糟糕的，但是整个印刷业的暗淡的前景或者是艰难转型让这个曾经光鲜的行业风光不在，最终落到垫底的位置。

2. Lumberjack 伐木工人

BLS National Salary Median: $32,870

Projected Job Growth: 4%

The inherent danger of working with heavy machinery in remote locations, coupled with low pay and poor job prospects, ranks lumberjack as one of the worst jobs of 2013.

伐木工人的收入不仅低廉，而且工作环境偏远又缺乏安全保障，再加上并不乐观的职业前景，让这个职业长期处于最差排名之中。

3. Enlisted Military Personnel 军人

BLS National Salary Median: $41,998 (E-7, 8+ years experience)

Projected Job Growth: Varies

Enlisted military personnel is the most stressful job of 2013, as the men and women who volunteer in the Armed Forces are routinely placed in dangerous situations.

哪里有危险，就会看到军人的身影。在这样的随时有生命危险的工作环境中，他们的压力最大无可争辩。

The rest of the ten worst jobs in 2013 includes: Actor(演员)Oil Rig Worker(石油钻塔工人) Dairy Farmer(奶农)Meter Reader(抄表员)Mail Carrier(邮递员) Roofer(屋顶建筑工程)Flight Attendant(飞机乘务员)

Best Jobs of 2013

2013年度十大最佳职业

1: Actuary 精算师

BLS National Salary Median: $87,650

Projected Job Growth: 27%

Those skilled in mathematics and statistical analysis can find rewarding opportunities as an actuary. The career is challenging, and becoming an actuary requires passing a series of three exams. It’s also constantly evolving and a process of lifelong learning

如果你有数字和统计分析上的天赋，精算师这个职位很适合你，高新且工作环境很好。但是这个行业要求也很高，要经过一些列的考试，并且内容也会不断变化，可以说是一个终生需要学习的行业。由此可见，获得最佳工作不是件容易的事情。

2. Biomedical Engineer 生物医学工程师

BLS National Salary Median: $81,540

Projected Job Growth: 62%

Biomedical engineers work closely with physicians, researchers, manufacturers and sales associates. The profession will play a profound role in healthcare improvements in the coming years, which will fuel the profession’s astounding growth in job opportunities and compensation.

生物学工程领域涉及到各方面的学科，在医疗保健方面有很好的前景发展，再加上丰厚的薪酬，进入前三不在话下。

3 Software Engineer 软件工程师

BLS National Salary Median: $90,530

Projected Job Growth: 30%

Computer technology is always changing and becoming more sophisticated. The latest wave in the field is cloud computing, and companies need software engineers able to meet this and other adaptations in the most fundamental facet of 21st century business.

计算机技术的发展日新月异，也更加成熟。不断的新技术需要大量的人才，这使得软件工程师这个从上个世纪末就大受追捧的职业在如今仍能挤进最佳职业的高位。
