EnglishA Report on Pupils’ AmbitionsTo: Mr John SmithFrom: Maria AntoniouSubject: Pupils’ AmbitionsINTRODUCTION : As requested, I have prepared a report on the ambitions of pupils of 3A in PASCAL EnglishSchool, Lemesos. I spoke to 21 pupils and the results are presented below.PROFESSIONAL POSITIONS: The majority of pupils stated that they intend to study at a University to becomedoctors, lawyers and architects. All pupils in this category seem to be aware of the need of a University Degree.SERVICE POSITIONS: Around 30% of the pupils would like to acquire jobs as waiters in hotels and restaurants,work in shops as sales assistants and other services. Very few pupils in this category really know what job theywould like to do after they finish school.OTHER PUPILS : 7% of the pupils have still not decided on a career and another 7% are planning on becomingscientists and hoping to invent something and become famous.CONCLUSION : To sum up, some pupils seem well informed, while others need more advice on their chosen career.I would recommend inviting someone to speak to them or visit a hotel to help pupils have a better idea of work inthe Service Industry.Maria Antoniou, 3AThe DreamOne night, ten year old Tom Miker had a strange dream. In the dream, hisgrandmother had been dead for two years, but appeared to see him. ‘Tom…’,she whispered…’ I am alive. Give this message to your Mum and Dad’.Grandma explained that she had a twin sister that looked exactly like her, butwas unfortunately dead. Grandma herself was well and alive and would comehome soon. Grandma also told Tom not to worry and asked him to give themessage to his parents so that they would be waiting for her. The next day,while Tom was having breakfast with his family, someone knocked on thedoor. It was his grandmother’s friend, Ms Sophie. She said that Louise (thiswas Grandma’s name) was alive and would soon be in town. Tom and hisfamily waited anxiously. Mum and dad were quite upset. Tom kept telling hisparents that everything would be great and told them about his dream. While they were having dinner, someoneknocked on the door. Tom’s mum went to open the door. She saw Louise. Everyone was amazed. ‘I knew it!’ Tomscreamed, and he always believed in his dreams from that day on.Maria Vanezi , 2ASomeone I AdmireEveryone has someone they look up to. Most of my friends and generally people I know,admire famous people. The person I admire the most is not famous at all, but she is a trueheroine. A true heroine for me is my loving mother. She has raised me to become a goodand decent person and never give up, no matter what. My mother always teaches me rightfrom wrong. I admire her for her morals and for all she has done for me and generally myfamily. I know that I can definitely depend on her, as she has always been and will be bymy side. Even at times when I have an argument with my father, she is the one who willbe next to me, make me feel better and understand if I am mistaken. I know that even ifeveryone else abandons me, she is the one who will stay next to me forever. Peopleusually comment that I look like her; I take this as a compliment! She is an angelic-lookingwoman, with sky-blue eyes that make her look dreamy and peaceful. Her shiny, coal blackhair makes her look like a dynamic and powerful woman, even though I can’t say that shereally is. Her hair used to be naturally blonde until the age of 20. She has been and will always be the best motherin the world for me. Looking back, my mother is the most positive and importance influence I’ve had in my life. Iam proud to see myself always following her beliefs and perfect character and personality.Emily Loizidou, 4A14PASCAL Platinum6th Edition
