Careers: three interviews

BY LINDA MACRIDGE
A. VET I suppose it was my love for animals that made me decide on this job, says Dr John Gordon. The necessary qualifications include a university degree, but if you dont love animals you cant really do it. The salary is not as high as many people believe and very often I have to visit farms away from the village I work in. Sometimes there are risks. I remember once when a pet snake attacked me! However, nothing compares to helping an animal. B. POLICE DETECTIVE Although to most of us this job sounds exciting, police detective Chris Collins believes that there isnt so much glamour. Working long hours and getting a low salary are not what most young people dream of. People often believe we are very famous. The truth is that the newspapers rarely write anything about us. Our job doesnt always have successes. You need to be a strong person to survive the pressure and you should have a good memory and a clear mind. However, when you solve a mystery, you feel excited. C. ARCHITECT Its a difficult time for architects. You can be unemployed for a long time after your university studies, but if youre lucky at the interview and youre talented, you can become very successful and earn a lot of money. Although computers make the job much easier, you have to come up with original ideas, says Tim Burton. In which paragraph does it say that ... 1 ___ the job offers a high salary? 2 ___ computers are helpful? PAGE 18

Is there intelligence anywhere else?

Many believe that we are the only intelligent creatures in the galaxy. But is this so? While huge cities, original inventions and a comfortable lifestyle are all signs of intelligence, some people argue that the destruction of our environment is a sign of stupidity. However, everybody agrees that no other creature on the planet has achieved so many things. On the other hand, the Earth is only one of countless planets in space. Some scientists believe that life may have existed on Mars, so why not elsewhere? Although it may be difficult for us to imagine alien creatures, it doesnt mean they are not real! It may be too early to say, but it would be fascinating to know that there are creatures out there who can think.

Ads everywhere
1 ___ Ads are everywhere. Theyre in newspapers, on the streets, on the Internet, on television and radio. Theyre so common we dont always notice them! 2 ___ Advertising a product or a service can be good for a company. If the product wasnt advertised, nobody would know about it and nobody would buy it. If companies sell their goods or services, then there is more work and more people can find a job. 3 ___ Another advantage is the low cost of the media. If they didnt have adverts, newspapers and magazines would be more expensive and fewer people would buy them. Many TV and radio stations would close down because they wouldnt have enough money to survive. 4 ___ However, many people often complain about the poor quality of adverts.

I remember I used to spend hours at home examining maps and I was so happy when the ship left the port. Only a few weeks later I was shipwrecked on a desert island. I taught myself how to build a shelter and pick fresh fruit. Once, when I was walking up a hill, I stood on a huge snake. It looked hungry, but I managed to escape. I couldnt believe my luck. I remember when I was saved, people thought Id made up the whole story! Ive had many adventures in my life. Ive travelled all over the world. Its strange, but I still feel young and Im not tired at all. Im flying to India next week. I want to learn more about the ancient Indian civilization.
