LESSON PLANS
You will hear a man called Toby Merchant talking on the radio about his job as an engineer with a company called Atkins Engineering. For each question, put a tick in the correct box. You now have 45 seconds to look at the questions for Part 2. (See Handout 1)
Now we are ready to start. Listen carefully. You will hear the recording twice.
Interviewer:On Jobwise this week, Toby Merchant is going to talk about his job. Welcome Toby.
Toby:Thank you.
Interviewer:Now you work for a large engineering company called Atkins Engineering. How long have you been there?
Toby:I’ve worked there for three years. While I was at university I worked for a small company during the holidays. And when I left university they offered me a job. I stayed there for six months and then I succeeded in getting a much better job at Atkins Engineering.
Interviewer:What kind of work do you actually do?
Toby:Most people in my company work on motorways and road-building. But since I started here I’ve spent all my time working on the new airport. We haven’t finished the designs yet, so building won’t start for a while. In the future, I’d really like to work on something smaller like houses and flats.
Interviewer:And do you enjoy your job? Is it what you expected?
Toby:I do enjoy it and no, it’s not really what I expected. I thought I’d spend most of my time in the office designing buildings and roads and bridges. I was surprised to find that I actually spend a lot of my time discussing things with other people. I work very closely with architects, for example. And I’m mostly outside, away from the office.
Interviewer:Sounds interesting. It’s not a very popular occupation though, is it? Why is that do you think?
Toby:Most people know that engineers earn a good salary, so it’s not that. No, it’s because young people think it’s not going to be interesting. But I find it a very exciting job. And there are lots of opportunities for both men and women.
Interviewer:Are there any disadvantages to the job?
Toby:Well, some people don’t like the long hours. That doesn’t worry me because I love my work. What I find difficult is that I can’t plan my free time. Sometimes there’s an emergency or I have to travel to talk to someone. But I always look forward to going on holiday – we have six weeks off a year so I can’t really complain!
Interviewer:Did you always want to be an engineer?
Toby:I was always good at maths and science at school. My father’s an architect and he was keen for me to do that but I wanted to do something different. So I was thinking of becoming a doctor. But I got a job on a building site after I left school and decided to be an engineer.
Interviewer:Thank you, Toby, for coming to talk ....
Now listen again. Answer the questions to the text.
1. Where did it work while he was at university? (for a small company)
2. Where did Tobi work when he first left university? (for the same small company)
4. Where did he get a job six months later? (at Atkins Engineering)
4. Is he working on the airport now? (Yes)

Tapescript Tricky Jobs
Teacher:As a part of our careers’ advice week we have two guests with us here today to tell us a bit about their work. Our first speaker is Miss Rachael Banner who’s going to talk about her work as a news reporter.22
SSON PLANS
Miss Banner: Thank you for inviting me here today, Mr.Peacock. Well, first of all, I’d like to say that one of the best things about being a news reporter is that it’s so exciting. I get to travel around the world and meet lots of people. My job is interesting too. The news stories I do are different every day, so it never gets boring. Of course, there are disadvantages – as there are with any job. It is often very stressful as we have to do everything in a very short time. It can be dangerous, too, because we often have to work in places where there are wars.
Teacher:Thank you Miss Banner. Next we have Dr. Geoff Chalmers who is a surgeon at Branston City Hospital. Thank you for coming, Dr. Chalmers.
Doctor:Thank you. Well, I must admit that I am very well paid, but there’s a good reason for that: the job needs a lot of skill, and for that you need to spend many years studying. It’s a very rewarding job too as it’s great being able to save people’s lives. Unfortunately, there are also a couple of things that I don’t like much about my job. Firstly, it is tiring because we work long unsteady hours. It can also be stressful as you are responsible for people’s lives.
Teacher:Thank you Dr. Chalmers. Now, if you have any questions ...

XI.The lesson is coming to the end and I’d like to give you marks for your work…Writing (Advantages and Disadvantages)
Before writing a composition about the advantagesanddisadvantagesof a certain topic you should make a list of the good and bad points, giving reasons for each one. Start your composition by briefly stating the topic, then present the points for and against in two separate paragraphs, giving reasons. End your composition by restating the fact that the topic has both advantages and disadvantages. Remember to use appropriate linking words (e.g. furthermore, to start with, also, what is more, on the other hand, in conclusion, etc). Also begin each paragraph with a topic sentence (a sentence which summarizes what the paragraph is about).
XII.Home task: you are to write an article for your school magazine about the advantages and disadvantages of being either a reporter or a surgeon. Use the notes and the plan below
to write your article. The beginning and ending, as well as the linking words/phrases, have been written for you.
