A — 2
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has four historic parts: England with its capital in London, Scotland with its capital in Edinburgh, Wales with its capital in Cardiff and Northern Ireland with its capital in Belfast. The floral symbol of England is the RED ROSE. Earlier, it decorated the arms of the House of Lancaster. The Lancastrians argued for the throne of England with the Yorkists whose arms had a white rose.
The war for the throne between the Lancastrians and the Yorkists became known in the history of the country as the War of the Red and White Rose. It lasted 30 years (1455 — 1485). When the Lancastrians won the war, their arms of the Red Rose became the symbol of the whole England.
Соединенное Королевство Великобритании и Северной Ирландии состоит из четырех исторических частей: Англия со столицей в Лондоне, Шотландии со столицей в Эдинбурге, Уэльса со столицей в Кардиффе и Северной Ирландии со столицей в Белфасте. Флористическим символом Англии является красная роза. Ранее она украшала герб Дома Ланкастеров. Ланкастеры сражались за английский трон с Йорками, чьим символом была белая роза. Война за трон между Ланкастерами и Йорками стала известна в истории страны как война Красной и Белой Розы. Она длилась 30 лет (1455 — 1485). Когда Ланкастеры выиграли войну, их символ — Красная Роза стал символом всей Англии.
B — 4
The Scottish symbol is a wild plant, called the THISTLE. At one point, the Scandinavians planned to attack a Scottish village. But since the Scots knew they were coming, they started to prepare for war.
Late at night, the Scandinavians came in their bare feet so as to not awaken the Scottish warriors in the village. But the thorns of the thistle hurt their bare feet. Their howls of pain pierced the silence and the Scots awoke to fight the enemy.
Шотландским символом является дикорастущее растение, чертополох. Однажды, скандинавы собирались напасть на шотландскую деревню. Но поскольку шотландцы знали, что они придут, они начали готовиться к войне. Поздно ночью, скандинавы пришли босоногие, чтобы не разбудить шотландских воинов в деревне. Но шипы чертополоха ранили их босые ноги. Их вопли боли пронзили тишину и шотландцы проснулись на борьбу с врагом.
C – 1
The Welsh symbol is a vegetable called the LEEK (or, on occasion, the flower, the daffodil).
The patron saint of Wales, David, ate only leeks and bread. In memory of this Christian saint, the leek became the symbol of Wales. Daffodils which burst into flames by the 1st of March celebrate the revered Welsh saint.
Валлийским символом является растение, называемое лук-порей (или, в отдельных случаях, цветок, нарцисс). Покровитель Уэльса, Давид, ел только лук-порей и хлеб. В память об этом христианском святом, лук-порей стал символом Уэльса. Нарциссы, которые расцветают на 1 марта, отмечают почитаемого валлийского святого.
D – 3
The Irish symbol is another wild plant called the SHAMROCK This plant helped St Patrick explain to the people of his country what the Holy Trinity is. The historic colours of the parts are: England, WHIТE, Scotland, BLUE, Wales, RED, Northern Ireland, GREEN. Sport teams of the nations wear these colours.
Ирландским символом является другое дикорастущее растение, называемое клевер (трилистник). Это растение помогло Святому Патрику объяснить народу своей страны, что такое Святая Троица.

Retaining good staff
An organization’s capacity to identify,
attract and retain high-quality, high -performing people who can develop
winning strategies has become decisive in ensuring competitive advantage. High
performers are easier to define than to find. They are people with limitless
energy and enthusiasm. They are full of ideas and get things done quickly and
effectively. They inspire others not just by pep talks but also through the
sheer force of their example. Such people can push their organizations to
greater and greater heights. However, not all high performers are stolen, some
are lost. High performers generally leave because organizations do not know how
to keep them. Money remains an important motivator but organizations should not
imagine that it is the only one that matters. In practice, high performers to
take for granted that they will get a good financial package. They seek
motivation from other sources.
High performers are very keen to develop
their skills and their curriculum vitae. Offering time for regeneration is
another crucial way for organizations to retain high performers. Work needs to
be varied and time should available for creative thinking and mastering new
skills. They will not want to feel that success they are winning for the
organization is lost because of the inefficiency of others or by weaknesses in
support areas. Above all, high performers – especially if they are young – want
to feel that the organization they work for regards them as special. If they
find that it is not interested in them as people but only as high performing
commodities, their loyalty is minimal. On the other hand, if an organization
does invest in its people, it is much more likely to win loyalty from them and
create a community of talent and high performance that will worry competitors.

Job Ads
Checking out job advertisements is popular
with executives worldwide. But though the activity is universal, is the same
true of the advertisements? Are executive positions in different countries
advertised in the same way? First, what UK job seekers consider an essential piece
of information what the post pays – is absent from French and German adverts.
Most British advertisements mention not only salary, but also other material
incentives including a car and fringe benefits. French or German advertisements
rarely refer to these. The attention given to rewards in the UK indicates the
importance of the job and its responsibility. In France and Germany, that
information is given by the level of experience and qualifications demanded.
Salary can be assumed to correspond with this.
If French and German adverts are vague
about material rewards, they are precise about qualifications. They usually
demand “a degree in…” not simply “a degree”. In Germany, for example, a
technical director for a machine tool company will be expected to have a Dipl.-ing. degree
in Mechanical Engineering.
French advertisements go further. They may
specify not just the type of grande ecole degree, but
sometimes a particular set of institutions.
All this contrasts with the vague call for
‘graduates’ (or ‘graduate preferred’) which is found in the UK. British
companies often give the impression that they have a particular type of
applicant in mind, but are not sure about the supply and will consider others.
Their wording suggests hope and uncertainty.
In the UK qualifications beyond degree
level make employers nervous, but in France or Germany it is difficult to be
‘overqualified’

How to Make the Most of a
Job Interview
If you’ve done your
paperwork right, managed to arouse an employer’s interest and landed a job
interview, your real work is just beginning. It’s one thing to impress somebody
on paper or over the telephone, but it’s another thing to impress in the flesh.
A job interview is a business appointment in which everything counts in
conveying a good impression. Experts will tell you that advance preparation is
the key to interview success. Before you go to a job interview, find out all
you can about the company. Depending on the results of your research, you are
supposed to prepare an interview outfit that will make you look your very best.
In most places you are not expected to wear a Chanel suit, but even if you are
fresh from school don’t think that your favorite blue jeans, an oversized
sweater and screen-printed T-shirt will be right for projecting a businesslike
image.
Many personnel managers
will confess that they often turn candidates down for poor appearance; however,
your looks alone will not help you get a job unless you are mentally psyched
and prepared for the interview. It makes perfect sense to go through your
resume once again and make sure you know the dates of important events. Another
thing you can do is go through your personal achievements to make up your mind
what you might want to present to an interviewer as an impressive argument in
your favor. Before the interview, give yourself a good rest, budget your time
well, prepare everything you need in advance, so as not to panic and get lost
at last minute!
Every organization has
its own culture, tradition, folklore and signs of deference. But there are some
things to consider that may help everyone.
You know that in many
positions your lack of experience is a big disadvantage. You can also compensate
for your lack of experience with your qualifications, enthusiasm, ability to
learn quickly, and most of all your sense of responsibility.
It’s natural therefore
that if you really want to get this job you must show yourself as a mature
individual who is not acting on impulse, but is quite serious about his/her
choices. Fight for your place in life: change a negative into a positive: you
are young, but you are strong and can learn fast.

EXERCISE 2. Say whether the following
statements are true, false or not stated:
1.
This is an interview for candidates who

Things like jeans and T-shirts are not
