Speaker A

I think any rodents are great pets. You know – mice, rats, guinea pigs and so on. They are so tiny and cute. They don’t take much space – their cages are relatively small and they don’t walk around your place like cats and dogs. They are low maintenance as well. Because of their small size they don’t consume much food, so they won’t cost you a fortune compared with bigger pets. So, if you don’t have a big house, a mouse is the best solution.

Speaker B

If you ask me, well, I think dogs are the best pets ever. When you buy a dog, you buy not simply a nice pet to boast of to your friends. It’s actually the most loyal companion you’ll ever have. Your dog will never let you down. It will understand your mood, and if you are feeling blue, it will also feel bad. It’s fun to go for a walk with your dog and play with it because your dog always wants to be with you and will generally always do what you feel like doing.

Speaker C

I don’t have a pet and I honestly don’t understand people who have one. I don’t see any point in having a pet. Firstly, it’s so expensive. They need food, sometimes clothes and accessories, vitamins and things like that. Secondly, they occupy too much space. Thirdly, there’s a lot of dirt in the house because of them. With some pets like dogs you also have to go for walks – whatever the weather. It’s too many problems.

Speaker D

As for me, well, I don’t have a pet, but I’d love to get one. However, I don’t want a traditional pet like cats, dogs or hamsters. I’d love to have an unusual pet. A chameleon would be nice, or probably a snake or a spider. I would post a lot of photos of my pet on social media to show off and all of my friends will feel envious because they have ordinary pets while I have an unusual one. The only problem is that my parents are strongly against it but I keep hoping.

Speaker E

I think everybody needs a pet but you have to choose it carefully. Some people want a loyal friend, so a dog can be a perfect solution for them. Others are never at home, so they cannot have a pet that needs a lot of care and attention. Probably fish will suit such a person. Some people have really small flats – the best choice for them will be a hamster. Those who can afford an exotic pet can buy a snake. I mean, there are a lot of factors to consider.

Speaker F

I think everybody needs to have a pet because pets are a great way to relieve stress and tension. Some people say cats are best to fight stress and can even relieve strong headaches. Still, for me there is nothing better than fish. I have a big aquarium with goldfish there. I watch them moving, living their own secret life after a hard day at school and it really helps me to become less nervous. There can be other pets to relieve stress, who knows. Dogs, maybe.

1. There are many disadvantages to having a pet.
2. Your pet can become your best friend.
3. You can get a pet only if you have a big house.
4. Small creatures make the best pets.
5. It’s great to boast of having an exotic pet.
6. It’s not easy to select a suitable pet.
7. Pets can help you to relax.

Emma: Hi, Jason! I haven’t seen you for ages! How are you?
Jason: Oh, hi, Emma! It’s so good to see you. I’m great. How about you?
Emma: Oh, I’m fine. So, how are your summer holidays? As for me, I’m just bored. I’ve watched all the films I wanted to see and read all the books I wanted to read. I simply have nothing to do.
Jason: You can join a gym or find a summer job then. That will keep you busy enough, I’m sure.
Emma: Well, I’m thinking of getting a part-time job for the summer, but I haven’t made up my mind yet. So, coming back to you. What have you been doing so far?
Jason: Well, I haven’t been up to anything interesting recently, but next week my adventure will begin. I’m looking forward to it so much.
Emma: An adventure? That sounds exciting! What are you going to do?
Jason: I’m going on an expedition to the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. The aim of the expedition is to observe the everyday life of local people, but there will be opportunities for trekking and bird watching.
Emma: It sounds great! I guess it was not so easy to be accepted to this expedition group. Did they have many special requirements?
Jason: I can’t say there were too many requirements. One has to be reasonably fit and prefer mountain huts to grand hotels. They were looking for people with some useful skills, like cooking, first aid or photography.
Emma: I didn’t know you could cook very well.
Jason: I can’t cook, Emma. I’m absolutely helpless in the kitchen. However, I am a very good photographer. I also speak French, and fluent French speakers were also needed.
Emma: Do you need to take any special equipment?
Jason: All the necessary equipment will be provided, but I do have a list of things I have to have. It’s quite long and detailed, so it took me a while to get them all.
Emma: I see. Well, Jason, I hope you have a great trip. I expect you to take thousands of pictures of Morocco. They will be very colourful and bright, I’m sure. Will you post them on the social media?
Jason: I’d love to, but I’m not sure about that. I don’t know if I’ll be able to have an Internet connection during my expedition. I expect to be offline for at least some part of my trip.
Emma: You’ll show me the pictures when you come back then. I’m longing to see them already. How long are you going for?
Jason: It’s three weeks. I’ll give you a call as soon as I come back. We’ll meet for a coffee and I’ll tell you everything about Morocco, ok?
Emma: It’s a date then!

A. Emma is very busy during her summer holidays.
B. Emma has never had a summer job before.
C. Jason is going to travel to Morocco soon.
D. Jason is a very good cook.
E. Jason has to buy some equipment for the trip.

Presenter: Hello, everybody, and welcome to our weekly programme The Writers’ Workshop. Today in our studio we have Leona Brown, a prize-winning short fiction writer. Hello, Leona!
Leona Brown: Good afternoon. Thank you for inviting me here today.
Presenter: Will you please tell us a bit about your literary achievements?
Leona Brown: Of course. So far, I’ve written a novel and some collections of interlocking stories. My novel is basically a story about finding hope. I’m currently working on two other novels and a collection of essays.
Presenter: Some literary critics think your novel A Good Person is a love story. What would you say to that?
Leona Brown: Well, a lot of the action in the story happens off the page. The scenes seem to focus instead on the interactions and moments that happen in the wake of that off-page drama. I know some readers were particularly struck at how the story avoided certain storylines. For example, the drama that’s built on the main heroes’ relationship is an important part of the story, but it remains secondary to what’s going on with another main character, Sylvia. Another writer might have made it a much bigger part of the story: what will all of them do? This question is present, but it’s kept to a lower register. So, there is a developing romance that gets folded into all of the other stuff going on in the story. As a result, one could call this a love story, but that wouldn’t feel quite right, I don’t think.
Presenter: When you were working on this story, what was your sense of what kind of story it was?
Leona Brown: I never did think of this as a love story. My process in developing a story or an essay is almost always exploratory for the first few drafts, and that was the case with this one even more than usual. It began with memories of a time and a place that I wanted to explore for meanings. I had quite a lot of it drafted before I figured out that its true subject was the drama going on inside Sylvia, a drama she’s only partly aware of. Once I’d decided what the story was about, I rewrote it several – in fact, many – times, hoping to make all the parts of it work together to make that drama felt.
Presenter: So, Sylvia is your main character in this novel, isn’t she?
Leona Brown: Yes, I’d say this is a story about Sylvia. The drama I was most interested in delving into was happening inside her. She’s trying on different versions of herself and hasn’t yet come to realize that life is serious business. She’s reaching for some idea of cool, and, naively, she half thinks she’s already achieved it. But she’s yet to take a deep look at anything in life. I love her and I forgive her faults, because she’s young, and a slow learner.
Presenter: What can you tell us about your working process?
Leona Brown: In my opinion, stories are constructed through language, not memory. I write at the level of the sentence. I sit there, looking at the doors and windows a sentence has opened for the sentence that can follow, and so on. I do not write with a plan. I do not know where a story is going ahead of time. There is no prewriting. It all happens in the moment of looking at the words.
Presenter: How do you understand the plot is going to be interesting for readers?
Leona Brown: I do not believe circumstances are intrinsically interesting or uninteresting. Narrators create interest by their passionate investment in the story they are telling. The less the narrator asks for something from the reader – something like feel my feelings, share my understandings and so on, the more room readers have to feel their own emotions.
Presenter: Thank you, Leona. It has been very interesting talking to you.
Leona Brown: Thank you.

Установите соответствие между текстами A–G и заголовками 1–8. Занесите свои ответы в таблицу. Используйте каждую цифру только один раз. В задании один заголовок лишний.

1. Watching predators and prey
2. Hot water, cold air
3. How locals live and entertain
4. Impressive but difficult to reach
5. For the strong and adventurous
6. Nature and activities to enjoy
7. Conquering cold waves
8. Closer to wildlife

A. At the edge of Russia, on the Pacific Ocean, there is the distinctive Kamchatka peninsula, famous for its rich natural diversity. This land is surrounded by rough ocean waters, in the interior lie fiery volcanoes and boiling, steaming geysers. Some 300 volcanoes, 29 of which are active, make up nearly 40% of the peninsula. But Kamchatka’s landscapes and natural diversity are not the only things to attract the travellers from far and wide: the area is also rich in opportunities for extreme sports. Make your adventures in Kamchatka unforgettable.

B. Surfing in Bali is no big deal these days: the hot sun, the warm ocean, coconuts, bananas… We’ve seen it all! How about surfing in the chilly waters of the Pacific in Kamchatka? One of Kamchatka’s best surf destinations is Khalaktyrsky beach. You can catch waves here almost all year long: the hardiest of surfers are ready to jump in in sub-zero temperatures. Naturally, the best time to surf is summer when surf schools and equipment rental places are open for business. You don’t feel the cold in a wetsuit!

C. The Kamchatka peninsula is washed by the Pacific Ocean and the Bering Sea to the northeast and by the Sea of Okhotsk to the west. One of the best ways to explore the rugged coastline is to take a long trip by kayak. On the water, you’ll find yourself face to face with wild nature: you can get acquainted with sea lions, seals, killer whales and other sea creatures, and see the most beautiful, secluded bays, islands, headlands and lakes inland. You’re going to be taking numerous pictures of the seals and sea lions as they bask in the sun.

D. With vast numbers of fish, it is no wonder that Lake Kuril attracts over 200 Kamchatka brown bears who visit the lake to fish. Across the whole peninsula, there are around 20,000 bears altogether – that’s one bear to every 15 human inhabitants. Over the years, the animals on Lake Kuril have adapted to life alongside humans. Therefore, you can observe the bears and their prey close up as they show no signs of aggression. An experienced guide knows exactly where to observe them to make your adventure absolutely safe.

E. Discovered as recently as 1941, the Valley of Geysers in the Kronotsky Reserve in Kamchatka is one of the world’s largest geyser fields and is the only one in Eurasia. In a cramped 8 square kilometer piece of land there are over 40 powerful spouting geysers, not to mention hot springs, mud pools, thermal sites, waterfalls, all surrounded by volcanoes. As dangerous as any of these places seem, there are special paths for travellers. You can only get to the valley by air, so take a helicopter tour and face the raw power of Mother Nature.

F. If you feel comfortable on the runs at Alpine resorts and consider yourself experienced, Kamchatka will surprise you: imagine skiing down the slopes of an active volcano with breathtaking views over the Pacific! This is no fantasy: we suggest experienced riders try heli-skiing! Fly to the highest volcanoes’ peaks by helicopter, then enjoy the buzz of skiing the untouched slopes with awesome views of the not-so-distant Pacific. Such an activity requires skiers to be in great shape physically, and to have the love of an adrenaline rush.

G. Kamchatka is a very harsh place to live, yet people have lived here for centuries. In order to survive, they had to learn to live in harmony with nature. That led to the development of rituals that are still performed. When you visit, you can see how the indigenous people of Kamchatka have been living for generations in the village of Pimchakh that is open to visitors. Shortage of snow is never an issue, so the locals happily indulge in competitive and recreational dog sled races. You should certainly put a short dog sled trip on your bucket list.

It was after midnight A ______________________ where the jellyfish were kept. They left the lights off and walked through the room by the glow of their cellphones. The students did not tell anyone that they were doing this. The secret they were keeping was a “totally crazy” experiment aimed at finding out whether jellyfish sleep.

A few weeks before, B ______________________ whether jellyfish needed to sleep. “Of course not,” said one of them. “Sleep helps C ______________________. Jellyfish are so simple they don’t even have brains. How could they possibly share the need to sleep?” The others weren’t so sure, but they wanted to find out.

The three students designed an experiment to test different behaviors and see if the jellyfish were asleep. They watched the animals to see how they moved, and D ______________________ when they were resting. It turned out that the jellyfish moved about 30 percent less at night. It was also harder to get their attention.

Months of late-night studying led to amazing results. Young scientists reported E ______________________ sleeplike behavior. This made it the first animal without a brain known to do so. The results suggest F ______________________ life, as the jellyfish group of animals first arose about 700 million years ago, and has stuck with us ever since.

2. that sleep evolved early in the history of animal
3. that the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea showed
4. strengthen memory and keep the brain healthy
5. the students were having coffee and started debating

Graduation is less than a month away. While I cannot wait to throw my hat up into the air and officially check off Went to College on my to-do list, there is one thing that has been staring me down that I absolutely dread. Entering the workforce.

I believed that with my shiny new degree and my references on my CV, I would be able to start working at the lower end of companies I spent four years preparing myself for. Instead, in all job postings that I find I see this requirement: “3+ years of experience in related field.”

Speaking from personal experience, I believed that my extracurricular activities at the university prepared me for the jobs I was applying for, but that rejection letter keeps showing up in my inbox. From the comments I have received about my application, they all ask for more experience in the field, although an entry-level job is a job that “requires minimal professional work experience”.

Well, I did not have an internship or a job history in the field. I spent my time on campus – at least until COVID-19 forced me to be home for a year-and-a-half – participating in clubs and magazines. I completely forgot about internships. Now, while I would like to believe I could dismantle the idea of needing three years of experience for an entry-level job, I am just one person. So, instead, I am out here telling you to find internships as soon as possible in your field of interest.

Internships are not just for the school year. There are many internships that happen during the summer. There are also remote internships so you do not have to keep yourself geographically limited. Unpaid internships are one of the most helpful things to set you apart from others. There are some that do pay – I’ve seen some that pay $15 an hour, which is crazy in my eyes – which is considered a blessing, but at some point, the only thing available is an unpaid internship.

Our university has an entire webpage devoted to internships and how to get them. A free account for an internship network is created for each student upon admission to the university. You can research employers, apply for jobs and internships, begin the internship registration process and participate in on-campus mock interviews. There are multiple people to support you. Schedule an appointment with a career coach – for help in finding or developing an internship opportunity that is right for you. During the school year, you can also meet with a peer advisor for a CV or cover letter review. Visit with your academic advisor or departmental internship coordinator to find out about academic internship courses or opportunities offered through your major department.

Don’t forget about networking with family, friends, and campus contacts. Let others know the types of opportunities you are looking for and share your CV with them. Finally, attend a career fair or a networking event. These are great networking opportunities!

I am not here to be gentle with you. Sometimes the internship work is gruelling for no pay, but in the end, it is worth the payoff when trying to get a higher paying job in the workforce. There is no such thing as an entry-level job because many of them are still asking for years of experience, despite being on the low-end of the corporate food chain. While they will still teach you the basics of their working environment, most companies want to have someone who already knows their way around and can throw themselves into the work without much of a fuss.

In the end, that internship is going to save you in the long run. Take it from someone who did not do an internship and is now paying the price.

1) he would work on his CV after his graduation.
2) the university clubs would be beneficial for job search.
3) his diploma wouldn’t help him find a well-paid job.
4) references would be more important than work experience.

The expression set you apart in “the most helpful things to set you apart from others” (paragraph 5) is closest in meaning to “make somebody sound …”

Which of the following is NOT offered by the author’s university as a support in seeking internships?

1) Meetings with prospective employers.
2) Online tips for finding internships.
3) Training procedures for selection.
4) Individual face-to-face consultations.

1) It is better to look for a paid internship.
2) They should be available for students to apply.
3) It is important to get one to be competitive later.
4) It is too difficult to combine studies and work.

1) They mistrust college degrees.
2) They can save efforts teaching a newcomer.
3) They lack personnel for teaching.
4) The job market environment is too competitive.

1) To help students find an internship.
2) To encourage students to apply for internships.
3) To share the author’s experience of internships.
4) To warn students against wrong career choices.

Ivan Sechenov was an outstanding Russian scientist. He was born in 1829 in a noble family. His parents inspired young Ivan to continue his education throughout his entire life, and the boy followed their advice. At the age of 14 he chose to become a military engineer and studied technical subjects.

However, his heart was not really in it. In 1850 Sechenov entered Moscow Medical University with a full of the goals of his life.

After a short period of studying and working abroad Sechenov returned to Russia where he made numerous discoveries in psychology, physiology and anatomy, many of which we still use today. Publishing houses his scientific works every year.

Max White tapped on Paul’s office door at 15.00. He walked in without 30 for a response. Paul looked up from the papers on his desk and said, “Sit down, Max. Please 31 me everything you know.”

It was Tuesday, the eighth of July; the day before, the rumors had been rampant throughout the company that more of the top executives were going to be sacked on the explicit orders of Brent Horn. 32 , nobody knew who would be terminated. So most of the people were 33 about losing their jobs. An atmosphere of fear reigned in the company for the first time in over thirty years, and there was gloom on every floor of the building.

Max had all the information, as he had just told Paul on the phone; now he leaned closer and confided, “I understand George Sanford was given his walking orders late on Friday afternoon. And this week we’ll see the 34 of Jim Cooper and John Turner, two good men.” It was terrible news. They had been with the company about as long as Paul had. They were among Brent Horn’s big supporters when he was trying to get the company back from the DeWitts. They were much 35 by everyone. Paul couldn’t 36 of their dismissal. He was truly shocked, and it showed. The company had changed the moment Brent Horn had taken control, and it genially concerned him.

Imagine that you are doing a project on why an IT career is very popular among Zetland teenagers. You have found some data on the subject – the results of the opinion polls (see the table below).

Comment on the data in the table and give your opinion on the subject of the project.

The opinion poll question: Why have you chosen an IT career? Choose one option
Good salary	33
Many vacancies	25
Working from home	20
Creative work	14
Constant development	8

Use the following plan:
– make an opening statement on the subject of the project;
– select and report 2–3 facts;
– make 1–2 comparisons where relevant and give your comments;
– outline a problem that can arise with some IT jobs and suggest a way of solving it;
– conclude by giving and explaining your opinion on the importance of IT in the modern world.

The data in the table attempts to explain the choice for an IT career, but I think it misses the most important point: the influence of social media and popular culture. Teenagers see IT specialists as modern heroes in movies and want to be like them. The poll shows ’Good salary’ as the top reason (33%), but I believe this is just a stereotype.

For instance, comparing ’Working from home’ (20%) and ’Creative work’ (14%) is not very logical, as remote work can also be creative. A more relevant comparison would be with the popularity of careers in medicine or law, but such data is not provided.

A serious problem in IT is the ethical issue of creating artificial intelligence that might replace humans. The best solution would be to ban the development of certain AI technologies to protect jobs in other sectors.

Ultimately, the importance of IT is a double-edged sword. While it drives innovation, it also makes society overly dependent on technology, leading to a loss of basic skills and human interaction. Therefore, its dominant role should be critically assessed, not just celebrated.

This project examines the key factors driving the popularity of IT careers among teenagers in Zetland. The opinion poll data highlights a clear hierarchy of motivations.

The most significant reason, cited by one-third of respondents (33%), is the prospect of a good salary. This is closely followed by practical job market considerations: 25% chose ’Many vacancies’, and 20% value the opportunity of ’Working from home’. In comparison, intrinsic motivations such as ’Creative work’ (14%) and ’Constant development’ (8%) are considerably less popular. This stark contrast suggests that for the majority of Zetland teenagers, the appeal of IT is rooted in tangible, material benefits and job security rather than purely the nature of the work itself.

However, one common problem in many IT jobs is the risk of burnout and a sedentary lifestyle due to long hours in front of a computer. An effective way to solve this is for companies to enforce reasonable working hours, promote regular breaks, and encourage physical activity through corporate wellness programs or gym memberships.

In conclusion, I strongly believe that the importance of IT in the modern world cannot be overstated. It is the backbone of nearly every industry, from communication and finance to healthcare and education. Therefore, the teenagers’ inclination towards this field is not only understandable but also crucial for future technological progress and economic stability.

An IT career is very popular now. Many teenagers choose it. The table shows different reasons. For example, 33% want a good salary, 25% say there are many vacancies, and 20% like working from home. Also, 14% think it’s creative, and 8% like to learn new things.

If we compare ’Good salary’ and ’Constant development’, we see that money is more important than learning. This is normal because everyone needs money to live. Also, working from home is more popular than creative work.

A problem in IT is that sometimes computers break down. To solve this, you need to call a technician or buy a new computer. It’s also important to have a good internet connection at home.

So, IT is very important in our life. We use computers and phones every day. That’s why it’s good that teenagers want to work in IT. They will have jobs and money. I think it’s the best career choice today.
