B.: The rector did. While he was making his speech everybody was listening to him with great attention. You know, our rector is a brilliant speaker. I shall always remember the words of the professional oath which the young specialists were repeating after the rector. O.: What is the essence(сущность) of this oath?

В.: The young specialists promised(обещали) to give all their strength, knowledge and abilities to people who need their help. They promised to

devote all their Hfe to the protection of people's health, to the fight against diseases, not to do any harm to their patients. They promised to be true to their profession. O.: Really, it is a great oath.

B.: Then one of the former sixth-year students handed over our Institute banner(знамя) to a first-year student. When he was doing that I felt great excitement. Now I understand still better all the responsibility which I am going to take after my graduation, that great responsibility which my future work of a doctor will require.
