A
New Dream Job?

1)
Mr Lim, 24, is an absolute pro. What used to be his hobby is now a
profession earning him about $300,000 only last year. Over the next
couple of years he will make much more.

2) He
lives in a small two-bedroom apartment and, despite making a fortune,
shares it with nine other people. There’s a computer for everyone
but not much room for anything more, except pizza boxes and bags
filled with clothes. When, after a ten-hour training session, Mr Lim
is ready to get some sleep, he simply rolls out a mattress. Like many
of his profession, he prefers to sleep during the day and sit in
front of his computer most of the night. His private life is
non-existent and he hasn’t been on a date for ages.

3)
So what is Mr Lim’s job? He is a professional computer-game player
and spends his days wiping out countless armies and annihilating
alien species. This profession appeared on the job market only a few
years ago, but it’s a booming industry. In Korea, thousands of
young people try out for the top teams. There are over 200 pros, the
best ones joining professional leagues founded in the late 90s. The
rules of selection are very strict, but anyone who thinks they’ve
got what it takes can register through a national system and then
climb from one level to the next to finally join the national
delegation. These compete against each other in Singapore at the
world championships.

4)
Since the championships and online matches are watched by thousands,
big money is made on tickets and advertising. Korea even has TV
channels covering games round-the-clock and DVDs of famous face-offs
proved more profitable than The Matrix. The champions are awarded
lucrative cash prizes. Most of the players are about 20; however,
there are also some in their 30s and 40s.

5)
It is too early to predict how long a career like this can last.
However, with its popularity on the rise, you might be set for life.
So bring your favourite mouse, headphones and keyboard if you wish
(computers are provided to prevent cheating) and let the games begin.

1)
Мистер Лим,
24 года, абсолютный профессионал. То, что
раньше было его хобби, теперь профессия,
принесшая ему около $300,000 только в прошлом
году. В ближайшие пару лет он сделает
гораздо больше.

2)
Он живет в
маленькой двухкомнатной квартире и,
несмотря на благосостояние, делит ее с
девятью другими людьми. Есть компьютер
для всех, но не много места для чего
нибудь еще, кроме коробок от пиццы и
сумок наполненных одеждой. Когда, после
десяти-часовой тренировки, мистер Лим
готов поспать, он просто раскатывает
матрас. Подобно многим его занятиям, он
предпочитает спать днем и сидеть перед
компьютером большую часть ночи. Его
частной жизни не существует, и он не был
на свидании вечность.

5.
Mark
the statements true (T) or false (F).

1.
In Korea, you can watch games any time you want.(T)

2.
Participants use only their own equipment.(F)

3.
Mr Lim’s apartment is not comfortably furnished.(T)

4.
There are thousands of top players in Korea.(T)

5.
The profession is open to everybody.(F)

6.
Mr Lim doesn’t have a proper bed.(T)

7.
Computer-game playing may be a good job in the future.(F)

8.
What Mr Lim does for a living used to be his favourite free-time
activity.(T)

Put
the sentences into the correct order to make up a dialogue

1)

speak? (8)

4)
-I’d like to apply for a job. (5)

5)
-We receive applications every Wednesday between 1.00 and 3.00 pm.
(12)

6)
-One moment, please. (3)

7) -Are you
looking for a job or are you already working with us? (7)

-Good morning, OSHA Partners. (1)

9)
-All right, but can I come in and give you my application anyway?
(10)

10)

11)
