Im Ellen Short-one of the student counsellors at Grisham College. Jac
19、k Nice to meet you Ellen. Counsellor I see youre an external student Jack. Do you find it difficult to do your assignments without going to lectures? Jack Oh, not really. We get really good study guides that have all the information we need but we can also contact the lecturers by phone or email. It
20、s been a great course. Counsellor Thats good to hear. Now what can I help you with? Jack Id like to talk about my career options. Im teaching French at the moment and studying Linguistics but Ive been offered a research position at the university. I really dont know whether to take the position or n
21、ot. Counsellor Oh I see. Do you enjoy teaching? Jack Well, yes-for the most part I do. I find teaching very satisfying-its great to see students do well. And of course, I love the summer holiday-six weeks at the end of the school-year is fantastic. Counsellor Yes, but youd get a long summer holiday
22、at the university, wouldnt you? Jack Yes-I think its an even longer period. Counsellor Is there anything that you dont like about teaching? Jack Oh yes-lazy students who dont want to do any work or the ones that behave badly and disturb the rest of the class. That can be very difficult. I guess I am
23、 a little tired of teaching. The pay for teachers isnt very good either. In fact, I find it difficult to save any money from my salary. Counsellor I see. So, what do you think the advantages of working at the university will be? Jack Well, as I said, its a research position which means I wouldnt be
24、teaching- it would be nice to have a break. The pay will be much better than what Im getting at the moment and of course, Id still get a long summer holiday. And, professionally I think working at a university would help me in the future. Counsellor So are there any negatives? Jack Well, the only re
25、al negative that I can think of is that Ill be working by myself. Im not really used to that. It seems with teaching that theres always somebody around-whether its the students or teachers or parents. Counsellor So, you can only think of one disadvantage? Jack Well, Id have to travel a longer distan
26、ce. At the moment, I just walk to school but Id have to drive for about 35 minutes to the university. Counsellor Right Jack-lets write down all of the advantages and disadvantages in both jobs.

Im Jane Winter and Im here to tell you a little about the possibility of volunteer work in Africa. If youre loo
28、king for volunteer work in Africa there are plenty of opportunities available. Lets look at the different types of volunteer opportunities available in Africa, what to expect when volunteering in Africa and stories from volunteers who have worked in Africa. Volunteering means something different to
29、almost every organisation you come across. Some agencies will cover your Q31 flight and cost of living while you are working and some are tree “volunteer“ projects and expect you to cover all costs for the privilege of the experience. If you are looking for a more meaningful way to spend a few month
30、s in Africa Q32 than simply travelling around, volunteering is a wonderful way to spend your time. Most jobs that last less than a year or so are going to be the ones you have to pay for. Jobs that require a commitment of more than a year will Q33 often offer a basic stipend to cover some of your co
31、sts. Whether you get paid and how much you get paid will also depend on your skills and how much they are in demand. Most paid volunteer opportunities in Africa are available to those who have a university education and/or a practical skill. Engineers, doctors, nurses, environmentalists, emergency r
32、elief personnel and teachers are among the most asked for by volunteer agencies. If an organisation doesnt require you to have specific skills then Q34 you will usually have to pay your own expenses as a volunteer. In general Q35 most organisations working in Africa try and recruit as many local peo
33、ple as possible rather than foreigners, since the projects should continue long after you have returned home. So dont take it personally if your intention to help people in Africa is rejected, it may just be that a local person is better suited to do the job. What should you expect when you voluntee
34、r to work in Africa? Conditions are usually basic. Most volunteer opportunities take place in rural areas where you may not have ready access to running water and electricity. Q36 Housing can be very basic and you will likely be staying with local families. A word about cultural adaptability. As in
35、most countries in the world rural Q37 communities are usually more traditional than urban centres. As you will be working closely with the local population you will have to dress and behave in accordance with what is acceptable locally. General pace of life and work is much slower than in the west.
36、Dont expect any organisation to run efficiently and without glitches. Getting sick can be a problem. If youre spending more than just a few weeks in Africa, especially sub-Saharan Africa, your chances of getting malaria or bilharzia will also increase. Make sure you take all the medicine and precaut
37、ions you need. The organisation you work with should brief you about health issues and dont forget that local nurses and doctors will have plenty of experience with these common afflictions probalby more than your doctor at home. Initially you may also have some problems Q38 getting used to differen
38、t food and water. Anyone who has volunteered in Africa will probably tell you that the biggest impact their project had was not on the community but on themselves. Spending time immersed in another culture will change the way you look at life and is part of the appeal of volunteering. Before you dec
39、ide to volunteer in Africa you may be interested to learn what the typical experiences are of people already in the field. Later, well look at a selection of volunteer stories and experiences from Africa. There are many volunteers and Q39 travellers who keep online diaries of their experiences. Thes
40、e contain some excellent tips about working, travelling and living in Africa. Before that, just a quick word about work permits in Africa. Many people who travel around Africa may wish to stay and work. But just as in Europe or the US, every African Q40 country will require you to get an official wo
41、rk permit. In most cases these laws exist to stop foreigners getting jobs that local people may be qualified for. Unemployment is bad enough throughout Africa so dont take a job that a local person could do. Now, lets look at a few peoples experiences . 16 【正确答案】 flight 17 【正确答案】 more meaningful 18 【正确答案】 (basic) stipend 19 【正确答案】 specific skills 20 【正确答案】 local people 21 【正确答案】 A 22 【正确答案】 E 23 【正确答案】 G
