A: Hi, Ben! How were your exams?
B: Nice of you to ask about them. Everything’s all right, thanks.
A: Is it? You look worried. Is there anything wrong?
B: No, everything’s all right, but when we were waiting for the results of the exam, we spoke about our future and our career plans. You know, I was the only one who hadn’t decided yet.
A: Well, let’s try to find out what kind of job could be suitable for you. I’ve got a special test that might give us the answer. All you need to do is to answer some questions. The first one is: "Would you like to work in an office or be out and about during working hours?”
B: It depends… But no, I think I would rather work inside. It could be difficult to be outside if the weather is bad. But I want to have the opportunity to be out in good weather, too.
A: Are good working conditions, job satisfaction and stability important to you?
B: Yes, I want my job to be exciting but not very stressful. Stability is very important to me, too. But I don’t want to work at the weekends or in summer.
A: And how about job satisfaction? What does that mean to you?
B: To me, job satisfaction isn’t just a quick promotion or good money. I want to feel useful.
A: Would you prefer working with machines or with people?
B: When I was little, I enjoyed taking things apart to see how they worked. But now communicating with people is much more important to me. I want to work with nice and friendly people.
A: OK. That’s enough. Let’s have a look at the test results. Well, there is a long list of jobs which meet your requirements. And the job of babysitter is at the top of the list.
B: Babysitter?! I have never thought about babysitting, but I don’t mind working with children. I’m very good at sports and the job of a coach has a lot of advantages. I’ll definitely try to learn more about it.

<span>Путешественник во времени. Часть вторая. Папа и его друзья искали везде: Роб Мак Визард был в Лондоне. Так что на следующее утро мы пришли к туннелю времени. Папа произнес волшебные слова и туннель открылся. Я закрыл глаза и полетел сквозь время. Последние слова папы были: "Помни! Туннель откроется снова через два дня после праздника Хеллоуин. Не опоздай! Ключ к тоннелю это Камень" Когда я открыл глаза, я находился в каком-то большом месте где было много народу (или большом и многолюдном месте). Я увидел больших серебристых птиц в небе. Они показались мне пугающими. Я хотел отправится обратно, но не мог найти дверь в туннель времени. Люди вокруг меня говорили на странном языке. Тут я увидел людей с плакатом, на котором было написано мое имя. Я подошел к ним и они забрали меня к себе домой. Это оказалась семья Михаила. Миша сказал мне что я оказался в России. Тогда я понял нашу ошибку. Семья Ининых была со мной дружелюбна. Миша рассказал мне много всего о твоем времени и о наших людях. Мы ходили в Мишину школу и вместе отпраздновали мой день рождения. После праздника Хеллоуин мы полетели в Лондон чтобы попасть в Вестминстерское Аббатство. Но сегодня то все знают что в Вестминстерском Аббатсве нет Камня Судьбы - королева Англии вернула его в Шотландию в 1996. Мы попытались улететь обратно в Россию, но упали рядом Национальным Музеем Истории (или если нет опечатки в англ тексте - Музеем истории природы??). На следующее утро мы встретили Алису. Она потерялась и нуждалась в помощи. Мы отвели ее в Тарнбридж Велс. Когда мы там оказались, то нашли семью Роба

My hobby
Hobby is what a person likes to do in his spare time. Hobbies differ like tastes. If you have chosen a hobby according to your character and taste you are lucky because your life becomes more interesting. The most popular hobby is doing things. It includes a wide variety of activities from gardening to traveling, from chess to volleyball. Both grown-ups and children are fond of playing different computer games. This hobby is becoming more and more popular. Making things include drawing, painting, handicrafts. Many people collect something - coins, stamps, compact discs, toys, books. Some collections have some value. Rich people often collect paintings, rare things and other art objects. Often such private collections are given to museums, libraries.
As for me, I like to listen to music. 3 months ago my parents bought me a compact disc player and I decided to collect compact discs. I like different music, it should be good. I collect discs of my favourite groups and singers. I carefully study the information printed on discbooklets. I try to find everything about my favourite singers. Also I like to watch music programmes on TV. I want to keep up with the news in the world of music.
Of course, I like to spend my spare time with my friends. We talk about all sorts of things ( politics, teachers, girls). We discuss films, books, TV programmes. In fine weather we like to be in the open air. We find a nice place somewhere in the forest. We make a fire, bake potatoes and have a lot of fun. When the weather is bad, my friends come to my place. We have a good time together.
