Read the text and answer the questions. What are you cut out for? Armen and his classmates are school leavers. Soon they will have to decide about their future. Armen is good at sciences. He has won prizes in maths and physics. He can deal with people. He will make a good manager. Nara can’t wait to leave school. She doesn’t really mind what kind of work she will do. She is fond of cooking and could make a good cook. David hasn’t made his decision yet. He is clever with hands, he likes modelling handiwork. He is often surrounded by children and he gets on with them very well. Robert wants to become an army officer. He does a lot of exercise, goes in for karate and reads books about outstanding generals. Ann Malian is interviewing them. “What are you going to do after school?” Armen: Well, first I’m going to have a few days’ rest after my final exams. In July I’m going to enter Yerevan State University to major in business and management. David: I’m not sure what I’m to do yet. I think I could make a good teacher. I know they don’t earn enough, but I think school needs men. And I like working with kids. Ann Malian: And a question to you, Mr. Manassian. What professions would you advise your pupils to choose? Mr. Manassian: I’m not a career officer. In some foreign countries schools have career officers who help pupils make up their minds about the right career. Maybe a bank clerk? Very popular with the youth today. They will be cashing cheques, taking money from the customers. Clerks may specialize in different fields –– investment, credits, foreign business, accounting, taxes ... A good clerk today should know a lot, at least computers, telex, etc. This job helps you feel sure about your future, but it isn’t very romantic, is it? If you want a romantic job and you have rich imagination you may become a film director or start a career on TV. All TV professions are very popular with young people today. Well, if a girl has a pleasant appearance and she has nothing against flying, she may become a stewardess. The stewardess flies round the world in modern jets and enjoys the exciting places she visits. It’s thrilling, but it’s a hard job. Maybe some of my pupils will go into home business. Others think that in a few years the country will be in need of good engineers and are planning to go to Engineering University. Wherever they work or study, I wish them success in all their plans and dreams. YOUR TURN 1. What do you look for in a job? 2. What do you enjoy most about jobs? 3. What do you dislike most? 4. Is it good to change jobs frequently? 5. What sort of boss would you like to work with? 19
