Exercise 3

Complete this essay with appropriate words and
expressions from the box in Exercise 1. You may need to change the form of some
of the words.

“Some
people live to work and others work to live. In most cases, this depends on
the job they have and the
conditions under which they are employed. In your opinion, what are the
elements that make a job
worthwhile?”

In answering
this question, I would like to look first at the elements that combine to
make a job undesirable. By avoiding such factors, potential (1) _____________
are more likely to find a job that is more worthwhile, and by doing so, hope
to achieve happiness in their work.

First of all,
it doesn’t matter if you are an (2) _____________ worker cleaning the floor,
a (3) _____________ (4) _____________ worker on a production line in one of
the (5) _____________, or a (6) _____________ worker in a bank, store, or one
of the other (7) _____________: if you lack (8) _____________, with the knowledge
that you might lose your job at any time, you will never feel happy.
Everybody would like a (9) _____________ in which he or she is guaranteed
work. Nowadays, however, companies have a high turnover of staff, (10)
_____________ new staff and (11) _____________ others on a weekly basis. Such
companies are not popular with their workers.

The same can be
said of a job in which you are put under a lot of (12) _____________ and
worry, a job which is so (13) _____________ that it takes over your life, a
job where you work (14) _____________ and so never get to see your family or
friends, or a physical job in which you do the same thing every day and end
up with the industrial disease that is always in the papers nowadays – (15)
_____________.

With all these
negative factors, it would be difficult to believe that there are any
elements that make a job worthwhile. Money is, of course, the prime
motivator, and everybody wants a good (16) _____________. But of course that
is not all. The chance of (17) _____________, of being given a better
position in a company, is a motivating factor. Likewise, (18) _____________
such as a free lunch or a company car, an (19) _____________ plan to make you
work hard such as a regular (20) _____________ above the rate of inflation,
(21) _____________ in case you fall ill and a company (22) _____________ plan
so that you have some money when you retire all combine to make a job
worthwhile.

Unfortunately,
it is not always easy to find all of these. There is, however, an alternative.
Forget the office and the factory floor and become (23) _____________ and
work for yourself. Your future may not be secure, but at least you will be
happy.

Exercise 4
