Your Career Goals
Read the dialogues in pairs:
1.
Are you pleased with your new job, Mary?
Yes, very much. It's just my cup of tea. I work as a translator at the Research
Institute.
And what sort of translation are you engaged in?
Well, I translate articles on chemistry from different American and English
magazines.
2.
My brother has an awful lot of work. He's so booked up these days.
Why? Isn't he going to take a leave?
Oh, no: most of his colleagues are on their vacation and the chief keeps him at
work day and night.
Nothing doing. The coming of the holiday-making season is in the air.
3.
What are your wages, Bill?
It depends, you know. I'm on piece-work.
And how much did you earn last month?
Well, 150 dollars let alone the bonus.
4.
Why do you want to change your job, Bill? It's interesting and quite well-paid.
The one I've found suits me better.
Really? Are you sure?
Absolutely, it offers more opportunities and also I'll do the work for which I'm
more qualified.
