Choosing a career
It’s rather difficult sometimes to choose a career and to speak about the future profession. There are lucky people who chose their profession in childhood and since that time have been doing everything possible to acquire proficiency.
If we are thinking about our future career we are to pay attention to a number of important things. We should determine our abilities and inclinations. Then we should analyse job projects. We must know whether the profession we have chosen will guarantee good living conditions and give promotion. We must be sure we’ll avoid unemployment or at least will be able to apply our knowledge and skills in other fields of human activity. In short, we are to decide what we are going to do in our life and feel satisfied, but not bored and disappointed.
When I was a fifth-former I dreamt of becoming a doctor, but later I gave up this idea. Now I’d like to be a qualified worker: a turner or a fitter at a big plant.

Good news for chocolate lovers!
It would be difficult to find someone who does not like chocolate. In the United States, chocolate is bought more often than any other kind of sweet. In Britain, each person eats an average of 11 kg of chocolate per year. That is a lot of chocolate! In the US people eat about 200 chocolate bars per second as a matter of fact. People love chocolate so much that they often think it is a bad habit. But there is good news for all chocoholics: eating chocolate does less harm to you than you might think.
People often believe that chocolate causes a number of health problems including bad teeth, obesity and skin problems such as acne. Studies carried out in the United States, however, give no support to this idea.
Specific tests were carried out. One group of people who suffer from acne was given regular amounts of chocolate, while another group of similar sufferers had no chocolate at all. At the end of the test period the two groups were compared. No difference in the condition of the acne sufferers was noticed. Chocolate contains fat and sugar, so if you ate a lot of chocolate you would probably put on weight. But reasonable amounts of chocolate in your diet will not make you fat. People usually get fat because they eat too much food in general, especially if they are not very active.
What about the effect on your teeth? Chocolate can damage your teeth, but the danger is less than many people believe. It is good to know that eating a certain amount of chocolate may even be good for you. Chocolate contains protein, vitamins and minerals. Scientists believe chocolate may reduce the risk of heart disease.
Perhaps the most amazing thing of all is that it can help you fight off illness. The important thing is not the chocolate in itself, but the pleasure that it gives you. Even the smell of chocolate can have a positive effect on your immune system. It is nice to smell chocolate of course, but it is much better to eat it. And the great thing is that you can eat it without fear.
2. People eat a lot of chocolate. Read aloud the extract which says about it.
3. What health problems do people traditionally connect with eating chocolate?
4. What facts prove that chocolate can be good for our health?
Хорошие новости для любителей шоколада!
Трудно было бы найти человека , который не любит шоколад. В США шоколад покупают чаще, чем другие виды конфет , в Британии каждый человек съедает в среднем 11кг в год. Это много шоколада! В США люди съедают около 200 шоколадных плиток в секунду. Люди так любят шоколад, что часто думают, что это плохая привычка. Но есть хорошая новость для всех шоколадоголиков: употребление шоколада приносит меньше вреда, чем вы думаете.
Люди часто уверены, что шоколад является причиной многих проблем со здоровьем, включая плохие зубы, ожирение ,а также кожные проблемы, такие как угревая сыпь. Исследования, проведенные в США, однако, не поддерживают эту точку зрения.
Проводились специальные тесты. Одной группе людей, которые страдают угревой сыпью, регулярно давали много шоколада, в то время как другой группе с такими же проблемами вообще не давали шоколада. В конце эксперимента сравнили две группы. Никакой разницы не было замечено.
Шоколад содержит жир и сахар, поэтому , если вы съели много шоколада , возможно, вы наберете вес. Но разумное количество шоколада в вашей диете не сделает вас жирным. Люди обычно становятся жирными потому, что слишком много едят вообще, особенно если не очень активные.
А какое же влияние шоколад имеет на зубы? Шоколад может навредить вашим зубам, но опасность меньше, чем люди думают. Хорошо знать, что съедать определенное количество шоколада может быть даже полезным. Шоколад содержит протеин, витамины, минералы. Ученые уверены, что шоколад может снизить риск сердечных заболеваний.
Возможно, самое приятное во всем этом, что он может помочь бороться с некоторыми болезнями. Важен не сам шоколад, а удовольствие, которое он дает, даже запах шоколада может оказать позитивный эффект на вашу иммунную систему. Запах шоколада , конечно, хорошо, но намного лучше его съесть. И самое основное, что вы можете есть его без страха.

Alex: Kelly, you’re a genius! Royal Guard soldiers are not only very colourful, they represent English traditions too! My parents will really like them. Okay, now I have to think of something to buy for my sister. That’s a tough one!
Kelly: Don’t be so pessimistic, Alex! Does she like to drink tea? You could bring back an English teapot.
Alex: Of course! Another great idea! Now the toughest person to shop for – my brother. What in the world could I bring back for him?
Kelly: Didn’t you tell me that your brother is studying English now?
Alex: Yes, that’s right.
Kelly: So why not buy him a DVD so that he can watch a film in English?
Alex: Sure, he’d love that. You amaze me, Kelly!
