3. Расскажите по плану о карьере актрисы.

1) Zoe did not expect to be a teacher after leaving school at sixteen.

2) Zoe did not continue her studies at college.

3) Zoe says her parents were teachers.

4) Zoe misunderstood the taxi driver’s remark.

5) Zoe didn’t have difficulties when she arrived in Britain.

6) Zoe wants her book to attract reader of different nationalities.

7) Zoe thinks life turns out as we intend it to.

Interviewer: Each week we invite different people into the studio to talk about their career. This week

our guest is a TV actress Zoe Fisher. Zoe, welcome to our programme. I suppose the first thing we all

want to know is how you started your career. Have you always wanted to be an actress?

Zoe Fisher: No, of course not. When I was a little girl at school, I always used to say, ‘I’m going to be

a teacher when I grow up.’ I really believed my dream would come true, even though I left school at

16. I had to leave because I was one of six children and my parents couldn’t afford to keep me there.

That was one of the saddest days of my life because I loved going to school.

Interviewer: So what did you do?

Zoe Fisher: Anyway, after leaving school I went to work in the chief accountant’s office of a bank. I

had intended studying in the evenings at college but I got involved with an amateur theatrical group

and a few years later I applied for, and got a job in children’s television.

Interviewer: When you started work on the children’s programme, many people asked us if you had

trained as a teacher. And today they are still interested in the same question.

Zoe Fisher: I suppose in a way I am a natural teacher although I don’t have any qualifications.

However, my chance to communicate with millions of children across the world in the past 25 years

has given me the opportunity to develop that ability. I love to bring knowledge into children’s lives and

truly believe that if we teach children well, they will lead the way in the future.

Interviewer: Did you have any funny incidents in your career?

Zoe Fisher: Well, I was in a taxi on my way home one day from the TV studios and the cab driver

turned round and said, ‘I think of you every day.’ ‘Oh no, here we go.’ I thought. But it turned out that

he had a two-year-old son and his wife worked during the day, so when he looked after his son he

would always turn on the TV so he and his son could watch my programme. That was the biggest

compliment anyone could ever pay me.

Interviewer: You grew up in Trinidad in the West Indies, didn’t you? How did you feel when you come

to the UK?

Zoe Fisher: When I arrived in Britain in 1960 I had quite a hard time to begin with. I had to fight to be

accepted and I think that experience gave me a certain amount of drive and ambition.

Interviewer: Zoe, are you satisfied with your career choice?

Zoe Fisher: In a way I think I’ve achieved my ambition to become a teacher through my work on

television. I get letters from children whose lives I have touched in some small way and I feel my

dream has come true. I’m hoping to write a book about my life and what I would want most is that

children from all countries and cultural backgrounds will be able to identify with the emotions I have

experienced.

I think I’ve been a very lucky person and I believe that our path may not always take the course we

expect, but sometimes we reach the same destination by a different route.

Interviewer: Zoe, thank you very much for coming…

Peter: Hi, Mary. Congratulations on your new job!

Mary: Thanks, Peter. To tell you the truth, I’m not so sure I like it.

Peter: Oh, come on. Don’t complain. You’re making a good salary now. Last year you didn’t make

anything.

Mary: Right. Now, I’ve got money, a nice apartment and a car. But I haven’t got any time to enjoy it

all. It’s just work, work, work. I work hard all day, every day.

Peter: It can’t be all that bad. You can still go to parties, and you can stay up late.

Mary: Right, but then I’m tired at work. I can’t do that. Now I have to be serious about things.

Peter: I think you are too serious about everything.

Mary: That’s easy for you to say. Anyway, what are you doing here?

Peter: Oh, I’m shopping for a new suit. I want to make the best impression possible at my job

interviews!

Mary: Are you looking for a new job?

Peter: Yes, I am. And I’m not doing very well, actually. I can’t seem to find a new job.

Mary: That’s too bad. Why did you leave your previous job?

Peter: Well, my boss treated me badly, and I didn’t like my chances of advancing in the company.

Mary: That makes sense. A job without opportunities and a difficult boss isn’t very attractive.

Peter: Exactly! So, anyway, I decided to quit and find a new job. I sent out my CV to more than twenty

companies. Unfortunately, I’ve only had two interviews so far.

Mary: Have you tried looking online for a job?

Peter: Yes, but so many of the jobs require moving to another city. I don’t want to do that.

Mary: I can understand that. How about going to some of those networking groups?

Peter: I haven’t tried those. What are they?

Mary: They’re groups of people who are also looking for work. They help each other discover new

opportunities.

Peter: That’s sounds great! I’ll definitely try some of them.

Mary: I’m glad to hear that. I’m sure things will look up for you soon.

Peter: Yes, you’re probably right. I hope so!

1.Прочитайте текст про себя. Установите соответствие между заголовками A-H и текстами1-

7. Используйте каждую букву только один раз. В задании один заголовок лишний.

2.Переведите тексты на русский язык

3.Задайте 10 вопросов к тексту.

A. Evaluating every action

B. Having self-belief

C. Taking action

D. Choosing a course of action

E. Staying focused

F. Investing money

G. Thinking about costs

H. Setting goals

1. One of the first steps in the process of becoming successful is to make the decision to achieve

something. All of us know that nothing can move forward until that first decision to do so is made. The

initial action is always the decision to go ahead, which many people tend to overlook. So, decide on

moving forward, put your decision down in writing, just to keep it in focus, and then carry on from

there.

2. Having clarity of vision and purpose is perhaps one of the most important factors of achieving

success. The fact is that most people simply have no idea about what they really want. Clarity means

understanding exactly what you want and how it will affect your life. Once you acquire clarity of vision

and purpose, the next vital step of becoming successful is determining aims you want to achieve.

3. You should be able to accomplish what you set out to do with unwavering concentration. Life is full

of distractions — TV, family, e-mail and telephones — all of which can be completely overwhelming.

How can you concentrate on your goals? Willpower is one of the factors although willpower alone will

not be sufficient to achieve your aims. One of the best ways is to make a plan and then stick to it.

4. Before beginning any new activity, examine it to see if it will help in moving you nearer to your

goals. If a certain activity can be put away for a later time, defer it. If that activity can be done by

somebody else, delegate it. And if it does not really need to be done at all, it can be deleted. This kind of

close examination of each activity will help in keeping you focused on the things that are really

important.

5. Success often involves being willing to pay the price that everything has. The price may not be in

monetary terms. It could be sacrifice, effort, time, and also money, or maybe something else. The point

is that in order to become successful, you must be ready to work hard and to put all your effort into

achieving your purpose. Success takes a lot of dedication.

6. Lack of confidence is one of the biggest hurdles that many people need to get over in order to become

successful. People often think they are not good enough or not smart enough, which can actually prevent

them from finding the success they seek. It is common knowledge that if you think you can do

something, you will, and conversely, if you think that it cannot be done, it will lead to failure.

7. Nothing can be achieved until action is taken to achieve it. After all the above steps of taking a

decision, setting goals, making plans and choosing a strategy, you will need to go ahead and act on what

you want to achieve. By putting your plan of action into play, you will get to what you set out to achieve

— becoming successful!

Задание 3.

1.Прочитайте рассказ знаменитой теннисистки. В заданиях 1-7 выберите правильный

ответ.

2. Составьте краткий рассказ о карьере знаменитой теннисистки, используя план.

Her parents.

Upbringing.

Her Hobby.

People she admires.

Attitude to Life.

Her Life off the Court.

1. The narrator says she is amazed because

1) people haven’t forgotten her.

2) people’s attitudes changed after watching her play

the match.

3) people recognize her on the street.

2. The narrator’s parents taught her

1) to achieve her goals.

2) great lessons in economy.

3) how to earn money for her first tennis racket.

3. The economist Muhammad Yunus is the narrator’s

hero because

1) he won the Nobel Prize.

2) he explained how he developed the Grameen Bank.

3) he was able to change people’s lives.

4. The narrator particularly admires Julie Foudy because

1) she is energetic and has leadership qualities.

2) she lights everything up around her.

3) she has the courage to ask for help.

5. According to the narrator,

1) sport doesn’t require any effort.

2) athletes must have daily training programmes.

3) success in sport is thought to be easy.

6. The narrator believes that a great tennis player

1) trains a lot.

2) has great will power.

3) is clever.

7. The narrator concentrates on

1) winning tennis matches.

2) trying her best both on and off the court.

3) what she does off the court.

When I’m stopped on the street, people often want to tell me that they’ve never forgotten my match against

Bobby Riggs in 1973. Every single day of my life, people come up to me and say, ‘I remember watching

you play that match, and win.’ Men, especially, tell me this. It’s amazing. They say, ‘I have a daughter now,

and she’s ten years old. I’m raising my daughter differently because of seeing you play that match.’

They really insist that their daughters and sons have equal opportunities. It’s been a huge shift in attitude.

These men are so different from their fathers and grandfathers.

My parents have always been the biggest inspiration in my life. They worked three jobs so that my brother,

Randy, and I could pursue our athletic dreams as kids. They taught us great lessons, which are particularly

relevant today, with the economy the way it is. My parents always said, ‘If you don’t have it,

don’t spend it.” When I was eleven and wanted to buy my first tennis racket, they didn’t buy it for me. I

had to work odd jobs to earn it. Their attitude was, ‘Let’s see if you’re really interested. Let’s see if you

have the focus.’ I guess I solved that one!

Actually, I don’t have much free time; but when I do have a spare minute, I enjoy reading. My favourite

book s Banker to the Poor: MicroLending and the Battle against World Poverty by Muhammad Yunus, the

economist who won the Nobel Prize in 2006. It’s great. He explains how he developed the Grameen Bank

and how, through the concept of micro; financing, he was able to change a lot of people’s lives. As soon as

he gave out a small loan to different people, he began to visualize what that could lead to. He saw the

potential. He is one of my heroes. That’s what I try to do for tennis and other things.

The person I admire most of all is Julie Foudy, former Olympic soccer star. She walks into a room

and just lights it up. We see each other every October at the Women’s Sports Foundation dinner in New

York, which brings together athletes from over 130 sports. I’ve always looked up to her because she’s

energetic, bright, and possesses all of the qualities that go into leadership, which sports is a great venue for.

Sometimes she just alls me and says, ‘Help!’ We should all ask for help when we need it, particularly when

we’re young — and, you know, when you need help. It takes courage to ask for it. With her energy and her

leadership qualities, Julie can do just about anything. That’s great!

People always think that being a great sportsman doesn’t require any effort. They believe that

success is easy. Absolutely wrong! Athletes must have a daily discipline of mind, body, and soul. They

have to do it all as physical exertion teaches tenacity and will power. But you cannot just be “dead from

the neck up.” It is also a way of thinking, the mental side that often spells the difference between an

average hitter and a good hitter and between a good hitter and a great hitter. Life is difficult sometimes. But

every time I see a ball bounce, I think about bouncing back myself. It’s a philosophy.

I don’t only think about winning tennis matches. I also think about what I’ve done off the court.

Everything I’ve done is trying to push the envelope, whether it’s on or off the court, to create

a more level playing field for others and to help people have a better quality of life. That’s what I care

about.

Задание 4.

1.Прочитайте интервью с комедийным актером Джеффом Грином. В заданиях 1-7

выберите правильный ответ.

2. Преобразуйте диалог в монолог.

Interviewer: Mr. Green, it’s a great pleasure to talk to you today. Have you always been a comedian?

Jeff Green: Well, do you know that most comedians are the youngest in the family, and most

are from dysfunctional families? And I tick both of those boxes. My parents were married three times

each. The thing is that most comedians are a little bit anxious. Because if you try to find something

funny, it’s usually an itch you’re trying to scratch. Relaxed people generally don’t need to be the life

and soul of the party. It’s nervous people who always try to prove themselves, because they are very funny

and make good stand;up comedy. So, you know, I just came into this.

Interviewer: How did that happen? Did you just start doing acts, using a lot of relationships as jokes?

Jeff Green: Well, I started in the UK around 1988. No one really talked about relationships at that

time. About 50% of the audience were women, but they weren’t being talked to or talked about. And I just

made one joke about my girlfriend, and it took off from there. That was when I was in my twenties, when I

still found women fascinating and mysterious. I’m over it now.

Interviewer: Do you enjoy meeting other comedians?

Jeff Green: Do I enjoy it? Yeah, I do. It can sometimes be a little bit bizarre, but you know, I love being

around them.In this job, you’ve got to like your own company, because you’re on your own a lot.

You’ve got to like being on your own and you’ve got to like being on the road. If sitting in a hotel room for

three days isn’t your thing, then it’s not for you. That’s my whole life. I’ve sat in hotels and gone to

different towns and you know, been away from home.

Interviewer: How much of a year do you spend travelling?

Jeff Green: Well, I used to travel in the UK, but England’s so small that I could always get home at night.

Australia is huge. So I probably do less gigs but I’m away from home more because I’d have to be in

Brisbane for five days and then I’d have to be in Sydney for five days. I reckon I’m probably away five

weeks of the year, condensed out. that’s probably away once five or six days out of every three weeks.

Interviewer: Do you do gigs all over the world?

Jeff Green: I’m quite a regional comedian. I tend to work best in England. I’ve performed to Americans in

Singapore and in London but I’ve never been to the USA. I’ve performed in New Zealand, Hong Kong,

Australia obviously, and lots of gigs in Europe, where you’re performing to Europeans, not in their

first language. You have to speak a little bit more slowly and you can’t speak in dialect.

Interviewer: Is the material the same?

Jeff Green: Well, those about relationships are generally universal. I used to change some things,

references such as Tesco to Coles, or Marks & Spencer to some local brand. But the actual audience don’t

want you to change the words. They’d rather you took the time to explain what the joke was in England,

rather than try to fool them into thinking that you’re talking about their environment. If you can explain

the meaning briefly and there’s a funny payoff, it’s worth doing it.

Interviewer: What do you do before going onstage? Do you have a ritual of any sort?

Jeff Green: I do a lot of visualisation before shows. All I do is I put myself on stage before I go on, so I’m

actually mentally onstage. The first few moments are of me catching up with the atmosphere and the

audience, so that when you actually go onstage, you’re actually firing off something. I think most

people are naturally slow;starters, because you can’t just walk into a room full of strangers and be friends

with everybody. But in stand;up comedy, you’re expected to be. That’s your job.
