Вариант 1.

Tim: I want to be a dancer. I have always liked dancing and it has come naturally to me. My father is a self-employed businessman but I don’t fancy going in for the same job, mostly because it doesn’t really appeal to me and it’s not right for me. I don’t think I’d be very good at it. I’m lucky that my family and friends support my decision to become a dancer. They’ve seen me dance and always say I’m quite good. They are very supportive and that’s important to me. I think people still believe that there is a difference between male and female jobs, and sometimes men still get more money than women for doing the same job. I don’t think this is fair, because everyone should be treated equally. Many people also still think that men should work and women should stay in the home. I think that men and women are good at different things. Men are often good at things like building and engineering while women are better at communicating and doing many things at once. Of course, I would like to earn lots of money, but having a job I enjoy is more important to me. There’s no point in being stuck in a dead end job you don’t like.

Вариант 2.

Mary: I want to be a soldier and hope I’ll pass the entry exam. When I was 13, I started the Army Cadets and I learnt about the army and handling weapons and all that. I enjoyed the life. A lot of my friends went in and said I was good. My parents haven’t affected my choice, but it’s fine by them, if it’s what I want to do. My male friends didn’t think I would have the guts to go through with it as it is mainly a male job, but they are quite supportive. My female friends are really amazed. I am sure, if I were male, my male friends would be a bit more supportive, but the girls think that’s great. But I don’t really care what people think, it’s just what I want to do. I don’t think there are any jobs that should be just for men or just for women. Men and women should be able to do every job the same. I wouldn’t like to do anything with low pay. But having a job I enjoy is more important for me because there’s no point in being in it for the money if you don’t enjoy it.

Вариант 3.

Kate: I am dreaming of becoming a pop star. My mom thinks I’ve got a good voice so maybe I could do it, but my friends don’t really care. I don’t think there’s any set job just for men or just women. Sometimes men get more money than women for doing the same job. I don’t think it’s fair. I believe if you do the same job, then you should get the same money. I wouldn’t like to be a doctor because I don’t like blood and I don’t like seeing the insides of people. But I do want to earn lots of money! Did you see in the newspapers about Jennifer Lopez getting two million dollars for a two-hour show? I’d like to be on that sort of money. Of course, I would feel more comfortable with a job that I enjoy, but for me, the money’s more important, so I would have to go with that, even if it was cleaning toilets!

4. Работа с текстом.

Read the text and complete the column about the USA. Then add information about Russia.

     In the United States, the approach varies from state to state. Most of the vocational courses are offered by community colleges. Historically, high schools have offered some vocational courses, such as home economics, typing, and auto repair, though schools have put more emphasis on academic subjects for all students because of educational reform standards.

     Most colleges operate under a policy of “open admission”. This means that anyone with a high school diploma may attend, regardless of prior academic status or college entrance exam scores.

    The “open admission” policy results in a wide range of students attending college classes. Students range in age from teenagers to working adults who are taking night classes to complete a degree or gain additional skills in their field. There are also students with graduate degrees who enrol to become more employable or to pursue lifelong interests.

     The first type of study is to get an associate’s degree, in which a student earns the qualification after a two-year course. This degree coincides with jobs that require some level of college education but not a full four-year degree. The associate’s degree programme is also for students who are planning to obtain a bachelor’s degree at a four-year college. It allows them to complete the necessary “core” requirements before they enter the four-year college.

     The second type of study provides certification in an area of training to become, for example, a computer repairperson, a medical technician, or a translator. Such certification allows for better job opportunities in many areas, as well as hiring preference or higher salary status when entering the workplace.

     The largest and the most unified system of vocational education was created in Russia in the second half of the 20th century with the so-called Professional’notehnicheskoye uchilische and Tehnikum.

     Vocational education is still an important part of the education system in Russia. A vocational qualification from Russia is generally recognized in the other states in Eastern Europe . . .
