Text.

   The population of Great Britain is almost 59 million. About 27 million work: 15 million men and 12 million women. They can start work at the age of 16. About 1.5 million people are unemployed. They haven’t got jobs.

         Most people work full-time. On average, men in Britain work 44 hours a week. Most men retire at the age of 65. Women work about 31 hours a week and usually retire at the age of 60. For women the average is less because many of them work part-time. So what kind of work do British people do? Over a million people work in the building industry. Although manufacturing is still important, more and more people now work in offices and spend a lot of the day working with computers. One very big business in Britain today is finance. London is the number one financial centre in Europe and number three in the world after New York and Tokyo. Retailing is important, too… selling goods to people like you and me. Eight of the top ten retail companies in Europe are British, and four of the top ten food retailers are British, too. Of course, we’re now living in the twenty-first century and hi-tech industries are very important. This is Research Machines, a company near Oxford. They make computers and software. Most British peoples get 20 working days for holiday every year. There are also eight public holidays. We call these Bank Holidays because they were the days when banks were closed.

5. Summarizing.

Today the lesson we talked about professions. We know which professions you like, which of them are popular and which are necessary. But to choose a profession is very difficult. You can't do it in one lesson. There is a Chinese proverb: "If you are planning for 1 year, plant rice, if you are planning for 20 years, plant trees, if you are planning for 100 years, educate people."Without competitive education it's impossible to create competitive nation, state, personality. The most important thing for our youth is to forget about pride and ask "What do I really want?" Of course, higher education is desirable< but it doesn't guarantee professional success. Good luck!

6. Hometask.

Write about your plans for future in about 18-20 sentences.
