School forever?

lasses and homework are not only for children Not any more, (00

This is the opinion of one of the online course providers | Jason Underwood He believes education is going to become a

lifelong process for those who are at school or university now

The professional world is very competitive nowadays, and to keep

up with rivals one needs to update qualifications on a regular basis If a person wants to go further, to get promoted, and to

keep his skilled job, he’ll have to master his skills and upgrade his

qualifications regularly

The job-for-life tendency seems to have ceased to exist The

world is changing rapidly: specialists of your profession are in

great demand now, but soon you may find the job market has changed, and you may need to obtain another qualification to avoid being left behind

It’s obvious that a person who has a full time job can’t give it up in order to attend classes The internet is the resource which enables people to combine work and

study Online courses provide vast opportunities in education and development

to everyone, regardless of their age, job, and location Jason Underwood believes

that the technological advantages of distant education are evident and it will

soon replace the old model of education with its compulsory lecture and seminar attendance “If you do an online course,” he says, “you can just log on, i.e enter the educational resource by typing your login, and listen to the lecturer, or read the printed version of the lecture You have access to lots of audio and video topic-

related clips and you can watch them again and again You can record them for

later use in case you wish to run through them for your exam And if anything

needs clarification or if you've got questions, you can apply to your tutor or the

lecturer via the e-mail And even when it’s time to sit your course exam, there’s often no need to come to the real classroom — you can submit assignments and take exams via the internet.”

Access to libraries without commuting and studying at a convenient time is

a real advantage for students of any ages, and absolutely vital for adult students

Though not all distance courses are run quite effectively yet, in regard to lifetime education the concept of lectures and tutorials held entirely in the classroom has already gone

1 Jason Underwood says that to survive in the competition people should

a) upgrade the electronic equipment regularly

b) watch how their competitors are doing

c) upgrade their professional knowledge

2 The author of the article believes that the job market

a) is expanding rapidly in all professional fields

b) tends to offer opportunities for anyone

c) is getting more dynamic and less predictable

Trang 6

3 The author of the article believes that

a) all age groups will benefit from the internet-based learning

b) younger generation will benefit from the internet-based learning most

c) the senior professionals will benefit from distant learning most

4 Jason Underwood believes that distant courses

a) will be used instead of face-to-face classes

b) cannot be used by schoolchildren or young learners

c) will make a part of traditional model of education

5 The main advantage of distant courses in Mr Underwood’s opinion is that

a) students have permanent access to all the materials

b) students can communicate with the teacher via e-mail

c) students don’t have to sit their exams in the classroom

6 The author believes that

a) classroom education has no alternative

b) people are ready to accept electronic innovations

c) the time of distant learning hasn’t come yet

Part Il Reading

Read the article about football fans and choose the correct answer Transfer your answers

to the table

Mi people would agree that football refers

to the most well-known and popular games

in the world The official history of football covers

almost a century and a half It started when the

Football Association in England was founded in

1863 In fact, football is older By 1863 people

had already been playing with a ball for many

centuries in many countries According to some

historic evidence, a game similar to football was

popular on the territory of contemporary Britain

in the second century A.D In spite of the fact

that football is wide spread all over the world,

many people still associate it with the British

Isles

The words “football” and “the British Isles”

evoke another phrase — “football fans” These

are the British who are considered to be the

most devoted, enthusiastic, and .wild fans So

wild sometimes, that their behaviour leads to

violent conflicts and vandalism To be fair, not

only British fans can be violent Unfortunately,

in many other countries one can see absolutely

outrageous news shots of burnt and crashed cars, smashed shop windows and bus stops, and

crowds of agitated, inadequate people in the streets Alcohol often promotes their aggressive

behaviour and turn it into violent fights, so the winners delighted fans and the losers’ upset

supporters may end up in the same hospital or

in the police station

Law abiding people, who attend football

games or who just witness football hooliganism

in the streets, feel indignant about such behaviour which threatens public safety and the reputation

of the game in general Most people believe that

the authorities should do something to eliminate

football-related hooliganism Probably the easiest

way to do it is to ban the game as the cause of

such behaviour?

“No, I don’t think so,” says Martine Clint, 39,

a long-term supporter of Manchester United

“Football is something special in my life and I

don’t think I'll be able to do without it I keep

track of all the news about my Club, I know

everything about the players, they are part of my family and my life And you just want to take it away from me?”

“No, banning the game is not an option Lots

of people need that game agitation For me, it’s

a good way to express all bottled up emotions, it

helps escape the routine and lets some fresh air

in my life” Surprisingly enough, but that was an

opinion of a successful business lady, who runs

her own business and raises two little kids

“Tt's not the game that should be banned or modified The fault is not with the game but with people.” Jack Williamson sounds very wise for his fifteen years “I love the game and I want

to be able to see it in the future, but I think that

alcohol should never be sold or allowed at the stadium It heats the conflicts and provokes

fights.”

Those brief interviews demonstrate that

people’s affections are with football and

though they feel very riegative about anti-social behaviour, they are not going to sacrifice the

game On the positive note, the statistics say

that the number of football-related crimes and arrests have been going down and

if the tendency persists, we'll

probably have a hooliganism-

free football

1 The first football association was registered in the second century A.D

2 The largest number of football-related crimes has been registered in the United

Kingdom

Trang 14

3 Most people are not going to put up with football hooliganism

4 Football is important for the younger generation, while middle-aged people don’t

care about it much

5 The female fan says that football helps her suppress emotions

6 According to the writer, there’s some evidence that the football fans’ behaviour is

slightly improving

P ets create a very special atmosphere at home, they add to the feeling of coziness

and safety They help us cope with stress and, being dependent and helpless in our world, make us feel important and worthwhile | 1 | They wouldn’t survive in our flats and houses if we didn’t bring them food from the pet shops and essential vitamins from the vet clinics They need us because a dog needs walking, a horse

needs rubbing, and a goldfish wants the water in the tank to be clean and clear

Some psychologists say that people who are lonely and non-confident tend to keep exotic pets Those people hope that an unusual pet can add to their identity,

put them aside from the crowd and help gain popularity with other people

Trang 20

We pretend that we treat them as members of the family and

try to impose our love on them However, sooner or later the

question emerges: do we have the right to sort out our own problems at animals’ expense?

Scientists and environmentalists speak strongly against the

so-called pet lovers, who adopt a kitten or a puppy just to please

the kid or because of some impulse Even the animals which

have been living with people for centuries and have already

adjusted to our world, need much more than their owner’s love They need care based on knowledge, otherwise they'll cause problems to you and their life will turn into a miserable

experience Before adopting a little hamster you need to find

out everything about its eating habits and peculiarities of the

cage housing You need also to be aware that the pet requires everyday care and that you may find it monotonous and boring

Milagres, an Australian koala, could be considered a lucky one as she got to the zoo in time for the vets to save her A European tourist had illegally

exported her from Australia, as he was obsessed with the idea of keeping that cute animal in his backyard “I was going to plant a Eucalyptus tree in my

back garden, and I thought that keeping a koala wouldn't be such a problem”, explained he later That was a dangerous misconception | 5 | It can’t digest

hard and thick eucalyptus leaves, and that’s why you need to have from one

to six hundred eucalyptus trees to keep your koala happy and healthy The number of trees depends on the climate — the more humid the climate is, the

less trees you need (within the range given above)

Little koala Milagres exemplifies a big problem caused by ignorant pet

owners Wild animals are neither toys nor interior design accessories and

putting them in a wrong environment makes them suffer and eventually kills

them

When exotic animals are kept as pets, ignorance is even more dangerous and cruel

Though koalas’ eating habits have been studied by scientists, the information about

their diet is fragmentary and incomplete

This is why lots of crocodiles, snakes and lizards, gorillas and cockatoos become

inhabitants of densely populated, traffic jammed megalopolises

Do we have the right to keep a crock in the bath, or a dolphin in the swimming pool?

Apparently, only zoo specialists are able to provide the animal with an appropriate menu

F, We understand that the most fierce and dangerous creatures are vulnerable and

helpless in people’s world

G In fact, the koala is very particular about the diet — it eats only very fresh green

leaves, springs and sprouts

Part Il Reading

Read the story and choose the correct answer Transfer your answers to the table

‘ve never been particularly keen on travelling When

I was a kid, I enjoyed reading stories about Robinson

Crusoe and the Treasure Island, but I’ve never thought

about round-the-earth voyages or discovering new

lands on my own The spirit of adventure runs in my father’s family There are family legends about his

ancestors taking part in some expeditions to Antarctica

and Africa There’s even some evidence that it may

be true — it’s a photo in Grandpa’s drawer which he

considers of great value That black-and-white snap

addresses my young Grandpa talking with Jacques-Yves Cousteau, a famous French underwater reseacher and

film-maker, on board of Calypso, Cousteau’s legendary laboratory ship

Though it all looks very exciting and captivating at

first sight, neither Mum nor me share Dad’s passion for adventures We certainly

try to conceal it and look as happy and enthusiastic as possible about all his fishing

or diving or whatever ideas

“I'm going to Black Lake tomorrow,” Dad said when we were having a quiet family Friday night dinner “Anyone with me?”

We were supposed to feel very privileged being invited to that intensely

Robinsons’ event, but we knew what it meant Waking up at 3 am, driving along

deserted country lanes, then cross country driving without any lanes at all, getting through the forest, mosquitoes, wet grass, leaves and thorns in the hair

“Td love to go there!” Mum has always been very swift in assessing the situation

“The view of the lake is just stunning at sunrise If only I had known about it a bit

earlier! I’ve already promised Mrs Jackson to drive her to the hospital tomorrow

Her backache literally drives her mad Poor thing was so grateful when I offered

to drive her to the doctor But it’s OK, Pll call her right now and say that I won't be

able to do it tomorrow Some other day perhaps She’ll understand, I hope Family

is the priority after all.”

Mum sounded natural and sincere and her reckoning was perfect Dad considered her words for a while “No, it won’t do,” he muttered at last “It'll be

unfair to old Mrs Jackson I’m afraid you may have to stay at home tomorrow,

darling I hate saying it, but a promise is a promise, and it would be very

inconsiderate to take it back Mrs Jackson has always been very nice to us, and very helpful with the garden ”

“If you feel so strong about it, then, yes, I'll stay in for tomorrow But next

time you need to let me know about all your journeys in advance And I love

it that you are so sweet to our neighbours!” Mum was doing her best to suppress

her triumph smile

Dad’s eyes focused on me, and I realised that there were no excuses for me

“There’s no need to wake up Mum early tomorrow,” I said “I'll pack up everything right after dinner It'll enable us to set off very promptly in the morning.” Both

of my parents were looking at me with admiration Dad obviously admired me

for taking up his spirit for adventure, and Mum — for the ability to sacrifice for

other people’s sake OK, I kicked off my newly bought high hilled shoes, which ’'d

planned to put on for Maggie’s Grand Saturday Dancing Party and slid into the Family Saviour shoes — worn out garden boots “It’s not very dark in the garden yet — I'll dig for some worms Fish doesn’t bite at the artificial fishing fly very much We need to prepare something nicer for it.” I slammed the front door shut,

and stopped on the porch feeling reluctant to go further The big garden looked

deserted and unfriendly, the grass was already wet with the night dew “Fancy

that, Jill!” Dad’s voice sounded muffled from behind the window “Some of my

colleagues dare to sound sympathetic when they find out that I have a daughter,

not a son They think that a girl cannot make a good partner for an adventurer like me Stupid! My daughter beats any of their sons!”

I sighed, picked up the spade and stepped down into the damp chilly twilight
