Đề bài

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions.

You know what they say: “Find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life”. So, if you are thinking about what to do with your life, this may be something to consider. Choosing a career can be difficult. Especially' because there are so many jobs to choose from and many things to think about, such as qualifications and financial rewards. So how do you pick a career? The only answer seems to be “choose one that makes you feel that you are getting paid for doing something you truly love".

Unless you have grown up with a talent or are keen on something that you can make a career out of, you need to consider certain things about yourself. What suits your personality? We are all different and just because your best friend wants to be a doctor, this does not mean that you should follow. You need to make an informed decision. This means thinking carefully about the path you need to follow to get that job. Are you willing to get the training or education needed? You must also consider why you really want to do it. If it's just because it’s well paid, then sometime in the future you are going to feel “empty”, even with a healthy bank account.

Nowadays, there are plenty of online career sites, but the main part has to come from you. You need to be honest and measure your skills and talents realistically. Also, you may need to talk to your parents who have their own ideas, based on their own experiences, about what you should do. They have your best interests at heart. They don’t want to see you having financial problems or being unemployed. But at the end of the day, it is your life. There is no point in being miserable for the next forty years just to please someone else.

Phương pháp giải

Tạm dịch

Bạn biết đấy, người ta vẫn thường nói: "Hãy tìm một công việc bạn yêu thích và bạn sẽ không phải làm việc một ngày nào trong đời." Vì vậy, nếu bạn đang suy nghĩ về việc nên làm gì với cuộc đời mình, đây có thể là điều đáng cân nhắc. Việc chọn một nghề nghiệp không hề dễ dàng, đặc biệt là vì có quá nhiều công việc để lựa chọn và rất nhiều yếu tố cần suy nghĩ, chẳng hạn như bằng cấp hay mức thu nhập. Vậy làm sao để chọn được một nghề phù hợp? Câu trả lời có vẻ đơn giản: "Hãy chọn công việc khiến bạn cảm thấy như đang được trả tiền để làm điều mình thật sự yêu thích."

Trừ khi bạn lớn lên với một tài năng rõ ràng hoặc đam mê một điều gì đó có thể biến thành sự nghiệp, bạn sẽ cần cân nhắc một số điều về chính bản thân mình. Điều gì phù hợp với tính cách của bạn? Chúng ta đều khác nhau, và chỉ vì bạn thân của bạn muốn trở thành bác sĩ không có nghĩa là bạn cũng nên làm như vậy. Bạn cần đưa ra một quyết định sáng suốt. Điều này nghĩa là bạn phải suy nghĩ cẩn thận về con đường mình cần đi để đạt được công việc đó. Liệu bạn có sẵn sàng tham gia đào tạo hoặc học tập để đủ điều kiện không? Bạn cũng cần tự hỏi vì sao bạn thực sự muốn làm công việc đó. Nếu chỉ vì nó lương cao, thì đến một lúc nào đó, bạn có thể cảm thấy trống rỗng, dù tài khoản ngân hàng của bạn có đầy đến đâu.

Ngày nay, có rất nhiều trang web hướng nghiệp trực tuyến, nhưng phần quan trọng nhất vẫn phải đến từ chính bạn. Bạn cần thành thật và đánh giá năng lực cũng như tài năng của mình một cách thực tế. Ngoài ra, bạn cũng nên trò chuyện với cha mẹ, những người thường có những suy nghĩ riêng dựa trên kinh nghiệm sống của họ về những gì bạn nên làm. Họ luôn muốn điều tốt nhất cho bạn. Họ không muốn thấy bạn gặp khó khăn tài chính hay thất nghiệp. Nhưng cuối cùng thì, đó là cuộc sống của bạn. Không có ý nghĩa gì khi phải sống trong sự buồn bã suốt 40 năm chỉ để làm hài lòng người khác.

Career Preparation

Although you may think you are too young to worry about your future career, it is important that you start thinking about your life after high school right now so that you can take the steps necessary to any career you may choose. Some of these steps include choosing the right high school, enrolling in the necessary courses, earning good grades, getting work experience and building a resume. It can seem overwhelming trying to choose a career before you complete high school, but always keep in mind that it is never too late to change your career path and no one says you have to decide now.

There are lots of different factors that go into choosing a career path. To determine the occupation you want to enter, you need to consider your interests, how long you want to be in school, how much money you want to make, the type of work you want to do, the potential for job growth and job trends in the industry – sounds like a lot, but that is just the tip of the iceberg.

Each day you make many decisions - what to wear, who to hang out with, how to spend your time after school. Some of the decisions you make today can affect you for the rest of your life. Once you have figured out the things you like to do and the things you do well, you can begin exploring careers that include your interests and skills. Make a plan from the beginning, and once you have a plan, work the plan. Do the steps along the way each year to keep on track toward graduation and higher education.

Bài 5 :

If your application indicates that you are qualified, the employer may request an interview. The interview enables you to learn more about the job. It also helps the employer find out if you are the best person for the job. Many people prepare for an interview by learning about the employer’s business. You can find such information in an organization’s annual report or on its website. This kind of knowledge can help you ask intelligent questions during your interview. It also shows the interviewer that you are interested in the employer’s business. Most interviewers pay close attention to the way an applicant acts, dresses and answers questions. You can make a good impression by arriving on time and by being confident, prepared and well-organized. Your clothing should be clean, comfortable and professional. Wear the kinds of clothes appropriate to the company, unless the workers wear uniforms. The interviewer will probably ask about your interests, your work experience and your goals. Answer all questions briefly. You should also prepare questions to ask the interviewer about the company and the position you are seeking. Send a follow-up letter to everyone who interviewed you no later than two days after the interview. In the letter, thank the interviewer for the time spent discussing the position with you. Let the interviewer know if you are still interested in the job.

Mi: Did you attend the career orientation session yesterday?

Nick: No, I didn't. I had to complete my project. How was it?

Nick: My teacher told us that if we didn't like academic subjects, we should apply for courses which would prepare us for a job such as mechanic, hairdresser, or garment worker. That way, we could start working and earn a living earlier.

Mi: My cousin did that. He learnt bartending after finishing grade 9. Now he's a skilful bartender and makes lots of money.

Nick: And you? What will you be in five years from now?

Mi: Well, I'll be studying at a teachers' college because I want to be a teacher. How about you?

(Đọc bài viết về giải trí và truyền thông. Nó chủ yếu nói về cái gì?)

1. why the media business will be very different

2. how technology will affect jobs in the media

If you read articles about popular jobs in the future, you will see that new innovations will play an important role in almost every field, including the media business. Here is what we think you can expect to see in the future of entertainment and media jobs.

Virtual reality (VR) will be in everything. It is already common in video games, and some museums and amusement parks have virtual experiences. In the future, you can expect to attend a virtual concert or play virtual soccer. This means virtual reality designers will be a job of the future.

Personalized content will be the new normal. Newer technology will let producers know exactly what their audience wants. To do that, companies and producers will need lots of data. We expect to see more job opportunities in media for data scientists.

Everyone is a producer. We are already seeing it today: anyone can put content online, whether it is a podcast or video, and attract an audience. Technology will make this even easier. And as people start creating more professional content, the demand for good content writers and producers will rise.

The world of work in media will keep changing. Can you keep up?

2. Top Jobs of the Future

The most popular jobs around the world may not always be so popular. Some jobs will become very important in the future, while others may stop all together. Here are three jobs that I think will be very popular in the future.

One job that will become more popular is being an astronaut. I think we will want to travel to and explore faraway planets someday, in particular Mars. For this reason, we will need more astronauts.

Another job that I believe will become more important is being a scientist. In my opinion, we will need new kinds of medicines and vaccines to protect people from new illnesses. Because of this, being a scientist, mainly a medical scientist, will become more popular.

Virtual reality designers will also be a popular job, I believe we will spend a lot more time in virtual reality. We will do lots of things in it, especially practicing surgery, doing experiments, and having meetings. As a result, we will need more people to design these virtual spaces.

The world is changing, and so are the jobs we need people to do. Young people should think about this when they plan their future careers.

Which Jobs Is Right for You?

You shouldn’t worry if you don’t know what job you want to have. Most young people feel the same way.

However, we have to get a job if we want to have enough money to buy things and support a family.

Thinking about these things could help you choose that job:

• Personality – Being happy in your job is very important. If you know what you like (or don’t like), you can understand which jobs are right for you. Don’t choose a job just because of the money.

• Working style – You might enjoy working on a large team or alone. If you know the way you like to work, it could help you decide which type of job will suit you.

• Working environment – Maybe you work best in an office, or maybe outside. If you have an understanding of where you work best, you can expect to find jobs with the right working environment for you.

• Career test – If you like the idea of someone giving you career advice, you could always take an online career test. These tests are free, convenient, and widely available. When you complete the test, a report tells you the most suitable jobs for you.

According to the passage,…

Woman: Tell me about yourself. What type of person are you?

Caro: Er... Well, I see myself as an extrovert. And I suppose I’m an optimist.

Woman: What would you say your strengths are?

Caro: That’s a good question. I’d say that I’m hard-working and, well, most people say I’m reliable.

Woman: Tell me about a challenging experience that you have had.

Caro: Let me see. Hmm ... a challenging experience in my life was when I ran a 5k race for charity. It was tough, but rewarding.

Woman: That all sounds very positive. Would a project that involves sport interest you? We have some vacancies on our Tennis Mentoring programme.

Caro: That would be great, thanks.

Tạm dịch đoạn hội thoại:

Người phụ nữ: Bạn đang tìm kiếm loại chương trình mùa hè nào?

Caro: Ơ... À, tôi thấy mình là người hướng ngoại. Và tôi cho rằng tôi là một người lạc quan.

Người phụ nữ: Bạn sẽ nói điểm mạnh của mình là gì?

Caro: Đó là một câu hỏi hay. Tôi có thể nói rằng tôi làm việc chăm chỉ và hầu hết mọi người đều nói tôi đáng tin cậy.

Người phụ nữ: Hãy kể cho tôi nghe về trải nghiệm đầy thử thách mà bạn đã trải qua.

Caro: Để tôi xem nào. Hmm... một trải nghiệm đầy thử thách trong cuộc đời tôi là khi tôi chạy đua 5km để làm từ thiện. Nó thật khó khăn, nhưng bổ ích.

Người phụ nữ: Điều đó nghe có vẻ rất tích cực. Bạn có quan tâm đến một dự án liên quan đến thể thao không? Chúng tôi có một số vị trí tuyển dụng trong chương trình Cố vấn Quần vợt.

Caro: Điều đó thật tuyệt, cảm ơn.

MY DREAM JOB

Hello, readers! Today, the careers advisor at my school talked to my class about different jobs, and I was really interested in the job of a 3D printing technician. The careers advisor said that 3D printing technicians used 3D printers to make things. The reason I like this job is that I love technology. However, it’s not an easy job. 3D printing technicians need to be hard-working, patient and careful because they make objects that require high accuracy, like teeth, hearing aids and car parts. Moreover, they often have to work quickly and effectively, so they need to have problem-solving skills, time management skills and creativity. I am willing to do what it takes, though.

 

Hi, Polly! Andrew here. Your future job sounds interesting! My dream job is to be a video game developer. My school’s careers advisor said that the job was about designing and creating video games. I think it’s prefect for me because I love video games. It’s not just fun and games, though. Video games developers need to have strong IT skills and lots of creativity because they work with computers to create characters and stories for the games. They also need to be hard-working, flexible and punctual because game development projects often have tight deadlines.

2 Read the email. What are Dimitris’ plans?

(Đọc email. Kế hoạch của Dimitris là gì?)

Hi Matt,
What are you going to do in the summer? I’m going to Greece. My uncle is starting an open air cinema this summer and I’m going to help sell tickets. My uncle lives next to the sea, so I’ll be able to swim every day. I’ll probably spend my mornings on the beach with my cousins and then I’ll work with my uncle in the evenings. My flight is on the day after we finish school and I fly back to the UK on 30 August. I’m going to miss hanging out with my friends, but I won’t miss the British weather! I’ll send you a postcard from

Greece!
Bye for now,
Dimitris
(Chào Matt,

Bạn định làm gì vào mùa hè? Tôi sẽ đến Hy Lạp. Chú tôi đang mở một rạp chiếu phim ngoài trời vào mùa hè này và tôi sẽ giúp bán vé. Chú tôi sống cạnh biển nên tôi có thể bơi hàng ngày. Có lẽ tôi sẽ dành buổi sáng trên bãi biển với anh em họ và sau đó tôi sẽ làm việc với chú tôi vào buổi tối. Chuyến bay của tôi diễn ra vào ngày sau khi chúng tôi học xong và tôi bay trở lại Vương quốc Anh vào ngày 30 tháng 8. Tôi sẽ nhớ việc đi chơi với bạn bè nhưng tôi sẽ không nhớ thời tiết ở Anh! Tôi sẽ gửi cho bạn một tấm bưu thiếp từ

Tạm biệt nhé,

Dimitris)
