  1. READING

Fill in the gaps (1-6) with the phrases (A-G). There is one phrase that you do not need to use.

ANYONE FOR A McJOB?

A McJob? What on earth is that? Well, according to a recently-added dictionary entry, a McJob is a low-paying job that requires little skill and provides little opportunity for advancement.

You dream of a job like this, right? A monotonous, tedious job 1)_______? No? Then, why are thousands of educated young people spending hours each day folding jumpers, grilling burgers, serving cappuccinos and unpacking boxes of books?

Katie Underwood, a twenty-three-year-old university student, has had around twenty jobs like this. She has worked night-shifts, has been told she can’t have a break or a day off 2)__________.

Fast food adverts and movies may make us think that these jobs are held by pink-cheeked, trendy teens 3)__________, but in actual fact, most people in these jobs are in their late teens and twenties.

Like Katie, these youngsters are juggling these part-time jobs and university classes 4)_________.

So, how sorry for yourself should you feel if you have to take a McJob? Well, perhaps you’re actually one of the lucky ones! First of all, some well-known former McDonald’s workers include Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon.com and Carl Lewis, Olympic gold medallist, and according to a recent article, around 20 0f the 50 top worldwide managers began by grilling burgers! Secondly, most young people who take these jobs have little or no previous work experience. Learning how to get to work on time, operate a machine, count change, serve customers politely, co-operate with fellow workers and accept orders from a boss are skills 5)________.

So, a McJob might be boring, tiring and badly-paid, 6)_________. Undoubtedly, it will also make you appreciate just how lucky you are when you finally get your dream job!

B which can give you valuable experience and maturity before you enter your

C who have worked in factories, shoe shops, restaurants, bars and museums

D who are just looking for a bit of extra spending money

Ты с нетерпением 1) ждешь, когда пойдешь в школу или ты абсолютно боишься(dread) этого? Или, возможно, ты бы предпочел пойти в школу где-то еще! На этой неделе журнал Go рассмотрит, насколько разными бывают школы 2) в мире.

А.

В мире существует много видов школ. Некоторые дорогие, частные школы-интернаты, как, например Школа Регби в Англии, где была изобретена(inventend) игра регби! Также есть специальные школы, например школы драмы, танцевальные школы или 40 акробатических школ в Уцяо, в Китае. Это может звучать смешно, но как объясняет 13-летний Чжан Ли: «Наша тренировка(training) начинается 5:30 утра. Это очень тяжело, но эти навыки(skills) помогут мне 3) зарабатывать на жизнь, когда я закончу школу». Также в разных школах огромное количество учебных предметов. В Средней школе Холдена в США, предметы включают в себя рисование комиксов, уроки фотографии, написание песен и йогу.

В.

В школе в горах Аннапурна в Непале, занятия не начинаются раньше 10 утра потому, что многие ученики вынуждены пройти пешком час, чтобы добраться до школы. В Японии нет ничего необычного(unusual) в том, чтобы 4) тратить 2 часа или больше, чтобы добраться до школы на общественном транспорте(public trasport) «Это не так уж и плохо» — говорит 15-летний Кейко из Токио. «Иногда я учусь или сплю в поезде, и это хороший способ догнать моих друзей 5) по учебе».

С.

Средняя продолжительность учебного дня в Великобритании и США – 6 с половиной часов для учащихся средней школы. Ученикам в Корее и Греции, 6) однако не так повезло! После школы они посещают(attend) дополнительные занятия в частных школах. «Обычно, — говорит Джи Ким из Сеула, Южная Корея, — я не возвращаюсь домой раньше полуночи, но если я не буду упорно заниматься, я не 7) поступлю в хороший университет».

D.

Во всех школах есть правила, но иногда они действительно строгие(strict). В колледже Итон, очень известной школе-интернате для мальчиков в Англии, студенты носят изящную(smart), но очень старомодную форму(old-fashioned unifom) с длинным пиджаком, штанами и рубашкой; в Японии все должны участвовать(participate) в «о содзи» или уборке школы перед тем, как идти домой, в то время как в школе Саммерхилл в Англии, где студенты сами 8) придумывают правила!

Е.

Итак, твоя школа лучше или хуже, чем школы в других частях мира? Неважно каков твой ответ, мы не должны забывать, что у 300 миллионов детей в мире нет школ, чтобы в них ходить. Так что если ты даже захочешь изменить какие-то вещи в своей школе, ты один из счастливчиков!

  1. Read an article about trainspotting. Six sentences have been
    removed from the article. Choose from the sentences A-G the one
    which fits each gap (1-5). There is one extra sentence which you
    don’t need to use. An example at the beginning is given (0).

A It is
also important to stay a safe distance from the tracks.

B Steam
trains are the most beautiful.

C Unlike
some hobbies, you don’t need a lot of expensive equipment.

D It
can be in beautiful countryside or by an old bridge.

E I
just don’t understand what so funny.

F York
Station is also very popular.

G The
final aim of this is to have seen every train in the country.

A hobby which is particularly strange to many
people is trainspotting or trainfanning, as it is called in America.
This pastime usually involves standing on the platform of a railway
station in all kinds of weather and for many hours, writing down the
serial numbers of all trains that pass through the station on that
day. 0 – G.

1____ A pen or pencil, a notebook for the train numbers, a camera and
perhaps a pair of binoculars is all that most people take with them.
You also need a lot of patience.

There are two very busy places in England for trainspotters. Clapham
junction Station, which is to the south of London, is one of them. It
is the busiest station in the country.

2_____ It is in northern England and it has the National Railway
Museum nearby.

Although people laugh at trainspotting and say that it’s boring,
those who have taken up this hobby disagree. ‘It’s not just about
standing on a platform and writing the numbers of trains as they pass
through a station,’ says Bob Turner, who has been a trainspotter
for 20 years. ‘It also involves activities like watching trains
from a favorite location. 3_____ We also ride trains for fun, take
photographs or even visit railway shows and museums. Being a
trainspotter also increases a person’s interest in rail history.’

There are also a few rules that trainspotters follow for their own
and other people’s safety. ‘Safety is very important,’ says
Bob. ‘You must always cross the tracks at the proper crossing, not
just at any point, and you must always expect a train on any tracks
from any direction and at any time. 4_____ You must never walk along
the tracks, on bridges or through tunnels. Nobody should risk having
an accident while enjoying a hobby.’ Does he really enjoy it? ‘Yes
I do!’ says Bob, smiling. ‘I don’t know why people think it’s
something to laugh at. 5_____ Trainspotting can be a great way to
spend your time. I have traveled all around the country looking at
all kinds of trains and I have seen lots of great places. One more
thing we don’t all wear little brown glasses and anoraks!’

  • Do you personally consider trainspotting as a hobby?

  • Is trainfanning peculiar to megalopolises only?

  • Is this extraordinary hobby common with your country?

  • Have you ever thought of taking up trainspotting?
