• Read the texts about five people working with animals and the questions below. For each question choose the correct person. The people may be chosen more than once.

   

A. Veterinary surgeon – Seb Prior

Seb sees a huge variety of creatures in his role as a veterinary surgeon. He says, “Anything can come through the door; you just wouldn’t believe it. We do general pet care and, because the clinic’s so close to a road, I spend lots of time dealing with animals who’ve been hit by cars. I spend half my day in the clinic and a half doing operations, which is a nice mix. I like being able to get out and reach people – being able to talk to them and answer their questions is a huge part of the job. You can be the best surgeon in the world but if you can’t talk to the clients, that’s a huge problem. You need patience and understanding for the people and the animals.”

B. Wildlife assistant – Wendy Burrows

Wendy sees all sorts of animals, from garden birds to tiny hedgehogs and fully-grown swans and every day is different, but Wendy’s wildlife center is particularly busy during the summer months. She looks after up to 500 hedgehogs and their young, who have to reach a certain weight before they can be let go into the wild. Wendy says, “It’s always a lovely moment when this happens, one of the most satisfying parts of the job”, but if this isn’t achieved by September, the hedgehogs have to be kept at the center over the winter period.”

C. Animal care assistant – Anna Lindley

Anna Lindley cares for a wide range of animals, from dogs and cats to birds and mice and it is these smaller animals that give her the greatest satisfaction. “Ever since I was a child, I’ve loved animals and I hate it that we often don’t pay attention to the small ones.” Caring for such a range of animals provides an interesting challenge and plenty of work! “With so much to do, I find myself rushing from job to job and never quite keeping up. I love the fact that you never know what you’re going to get, although unfortunately, that does mean I sometimes have to deal with a snake, which I find a bit scary!”

D. Inspector – Justin Stubbs 

“Becoming an animal inspector was something I’d always wanted – along with being a policeman. At first, I had no idea what it involved but actually, the job is better than I ever imagined. There’s never a day when I don’t want to go to work. The job is a lot harder than people realize and it can get me down at times. Over the years I’ve had to learn to put it to the back of my mind when I leave at the end of the day, but that’s easier said than done and it’s true to say that a bit of the job always comes home with me. It’s the nature of the job.”

E. Vet nurse – Naomi Killingsworth 

Naomi works with people as much as animals but not everyone who comes through the hospital doors is as grateful as you might think, as Naomi explains: “Sometimes I wish more people appreciated what we do. We work hard here, but not everyone realizes that. Of course, there are also many people who couldn’t be more grateful for what we’ve done to help their animals – they make it all worthwhile.”

 

+ QUESTIONS:

1, Which person is pleased with their schedule at work? ___________

2, Which person says their job was a childhood ambition? ___________

3, Which person does a job in which the amount of work varies?  ___________

4, Which person always looks forward to going to work? ___________

5, Which person says communication is an essential skill for their work? ___________

Tips for giving an effective business presentation

Preparation

Get someone else to evaluate your performance and highlight your best skills. For example, go through your presentation in front of colleague or relative. Think about who your audience is and what you want them to get out of the presentation. Think about content and style.

Go into the presentation room and try out any moves you may have to make, e.g. getting up from your chair and moving to the podium. Errors in the first 20 seconds can be very disorientating.

Familiarize yourself with the electronic equipment before the presentation and also have a backup plan in mind, should there be an unexpected problem like a power cut.

Dealing with presentation nervousness

A certain amount of nervousness is vital for a good presentation. The added adrenaline will keep your faculties sharp and give your presentation skills extra force. This can, however, result in tension in the upper chest. Concentrate on your breathing. Slow it right down and this will relax you. Strangely, having something to pick up and put down tends to help you do this.

It may seem an odd idea, but we seem to feel calmer when we engage in what's referred to as a displacement activity, like clicking a pen or fiddling with jewelry. A limited amount of this will not be too obvious and can make you feel more secure at the start.

Interacting with your audience

Think of your presentation as a conversation with your audience. They may not actually say anything but make them feel consulted, questioned, challenged, then they will stay awake and attentive.

Engage with your present audience, not the one you have prepared for. Keep looking for reactions to your ideas and respond to them. If your audience doesn't appear to be following you, find another way to get your ideas across. If you don't interact, you might as well send a video recording of your presentation instead!

Structuring effective presentations

Effective presentations are full of examples. These help your listeners to see more clearly what you mean. It's quicker and more colorful. Stick to the point using three or four main ideas. For any subsidiary information that you cannot present in 20 minutes, try another medium, such as handouts.

End as if your presentation has gone well. Do this even if you feel you've presented badly. And anyway a good finish will get you some applause - and you deserve it!

Questions 1- 8

Complete the sentences below. Choose NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the text for each answer.

1. Practicing your presentation on a Answer or a family member is helpful.

2. Be prepared for a problem such as a Answer

3. One way to overcome pre-presentation nerves is to make your Answer less rapid.

4. It is acceptable to do something called a Answer at the start of the presentation to reassure you.

5. Your presentation should be like a Answer with the people who have come to hear you.

6. Check constantly for Answer to the points you are making.

7. Make sure you use plenty of Answer to communicate your message effectively

8. To keep the presentation short, use things like Answer to provide extra details

The Young Person's Railcard

A Young Person's Railcard gives young people the opportunity to purchase discounted rail tickets across Britain. Just Imagine where it could take you - to festivals, to see distant friends or to London for a weekend break.

Who can apply?

Absolutely anybody between 16 and 25 can apply. You will need to provide proof that you are under 26 years of age. For this, only your birth certificate, driving licence, passport or medical card will be acceptable. Alternatively, if you are a mature student over this age but in full-time education, you can also apply. In order to prove your eligibility, you will need to get your headteacher, tutor, or head of department to sign the application form as well as one of your photos, the latter also needing to be officially stamped. 'Full-time education’ is defined as over 15 hours per week for at least 20 weeks a year.

Then go along to any major railway station, rail-appointed travel agent or authorised student travel office with your completed application form from this leaflet, together with £28, two passport-sized photos and proof of eligibility

Using your railcard

You can use it at any time-weekends, Bank Holidays or during the week. But if you travel before 10 am Monday to Friday (except during July and August) minimum fares will apply. For full details of these, please ask at your local station or contact a rail-appointed travel agent.

Conditions

In cases where a railcard does not bear the user's signature, it will be treated as invalid. Neither your railcard nor any tickets bought with it may be used by anybody else. Unless there are no purchase facilities available at the station where you began your journey, you will be required to pay the full fare if you are unable to produce a valid ticket for inspection during a journey.

Reduced rate tickets are not available for first-class travel or for Eurostar links to France and Belgium. Passengers will be charged the full rate if they want to use these services.

 

Complete the sentences below. Choose NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS from the text for each answer.

1. Railcard applicants over 25 need to be involved in Answer
