What jobs are popular with modern teenagers монолог

Эссе на тему «Jobs for Teenagers»

Teenagers should be encouraged to find part-time jobs in summer

Nowadays teenagers face difficult decision when they think about spending holydays. Some people claim that youth have to start career in summer, while others argue that students are too young for working.

I am concerned that part-time job is the best holyday activity. Firstly, teens will develop their soft-skills which are important for future career. For example, one who can solve problems and result conflicts at workplace is more likely to find well-paid job after university. Secondly, even small income is dramatically significant for every teenager. For instance, they will have an opportunity to pay for entertainments, buy stylish clothes and equipment for hobbies.

Nevertheless, there are some people, who are convinced, that youth should not seek employment. According to their opinion, teenagers are irresponsible and absent-minded which is not suitable for many professions. For example, students are not reliable to deal with money or documents, because they can forget about important deadline or contract.

However, I cannot agree with my opponent, I firmly believe that there are many appropriate jobs for youth. Moreover, such professions as babysitter or kid’s animator were created especially for teens, because they can easily get along with children.

To conclude, part-time job is sufficient way for teens to spend their summer, because they are able to earn first money and develop personal characteristics. In addition, employer will have benefits working with ambitious and active teenagers.

· why people like travelling

· what means of transport is the best for travelling, in your view

· what places in Russia you would like to visit

Well, now I’m going to talk about travelling.

To begin with, I’d like to say that nowadays more and more people travel around the world. No doubt, people like travelling for different reasons. Firstly, I think that most people like travelling because it gives them an opportunity to meet new people. Secondly, travelling is a good way to broaden the mind and gain knowledge. If you go to a foreign country, you can learn its customs and traditions, see the sights, make friends with local citizens.

As for means of transport, I suppose that cars are the most convenient means of transport because you can stop if you wish and spend as much time as you like. Travelling by car gives you a chance to enjoy the nature outside and you don’t have to buy tickets.

In my opinion, the main tourist centers in Russia are Moscow and St.Petersburg and I would like to visit them both, to see the Kremlin and to visit the famous Hermitage. If I have a chance, I will go to some theatres (doesn’t matter in which city) and watch some classical Russian ballets.

In conclusion, I’d like to say that travelling plays an important part in our life and everybody should travel as much as possible. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

· why a lot of young people learn foreign languages

· how people can improve their language skills

· what foreign languages you would like to learn and why

I’m going to give a talk about foreign languages.

Learning a foreign language is not easy, it t takes much time and effort. People learn foreign languages for different reasons. Nowadays more and more people travel around the world. So, it’s necessary to learn foreign languages to communicate with other people, to understand them and to be understood while travelling. Besides, knowledge of foreign languages can help to find a well-paid job and gives an opportunity to study abroad. Some people learn foreign languages just for a hobby because it improves memory and broaden their mind.

I think that it is important to improve language skills. To tell the truth, t here are a lot of useful learning strategies. People should learn new words, read English books to enrich their vocabulary, listen to different English texts and watch online films to improve their listening skills.

As for me, my dream is to learn French because it is a beautiful language and I wish I visited France.

All in all, I can say that learning languages play an important role in our life. It can be useful both in professional and entertaining spheres. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

· why people spend time watching TV

· what most teenagers prefer: watching TV or browsing the Internet, and why

· whether there is a TV programme you really like

So, I’d like to give some words about TV.

To begin with, I’d like to say that TV is one of the greatest inventions of all times. It is impossible to imagine our life without TV because i t is a source of information and entertainment. Besides, people spend time watching TV to have national and international news or to have a rest. Some people watch TV not to feel bored because TV channels show a great variety of programmes: documentaries, feature films and comedies, soaps, concerts and talk shows.

I think watching TV is not a popular pastime among teens. Most of them have computers with an internet access. That is why if they want to watch some shows or movies, they use their computers. Nowadays teenagers prefer browsing the Internet to watching TV. Thanks to the Net, they can get news, communicate with their friends, read online books, watch films, listen to music, play games and even do online shopping on the Internet nowadays.

As for me, don’t often watch TV. I prefer watching different quizzes. That’s why my favourite TV programme is “Who wants to be a millionaire?” I enjoy watching this programme because questions are always very interesting and they help me to broaden my mind. I find it informative and try not to miss it.

In conclusion, I think that watching TV is a good pastime and it plays an important part in people’s lives. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

· what your weekday is like

· what you like about your school most of all

· whether you prefer classroom learning or online learning, and why

So, I’d like to give a talk about my school. To begin with, I want to say that school years are the most important because we learn how to learn, get first knowledge about the world. At present I am finishing the 9 th form. According to the timetable, I have six lessons a day but sometimes I have extra classes to prepare for my final exams. My school day starts at 8 am and finishes at 2 pm. After school I have a little rest and do homework. It usually takes me 3-4 hours. Then I watch TV or go for a walk with my friends if the weather is fine or read a book. At 10 I go to bed. To tell the truth, I like my school very much. I have many good and reliable friends there. We get on well with each other. We spend much time together doing sports. I like friendly atmosphere most of all at my school.

In conclusion, I want to say that they are two different systems of teaching, each has its advantages and disadvantages. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

· what season is the best time in the region where you live

· whether you agree with the proverb «There is no bad weather, there are only bad clothes»

· what you usually do when it is nasty and cold

Now I would like to give a talk about seasons and weather.

To begin with, I’d like to say that there are four seasons in a year: spring, summer, autumn and winter. As, for me, my favorite season is summer because it is sunny and hot. It’s time of the longest holidays. Besides, I am fond of going to the river, sunbathing riding a bike with my friends in summer. In my opinion, it is the best season in the region where I live.

Some people think there is no bad weather, there are only bad clothes. I disagree with this proverb. If it is raining, snowing, cold, it is unpleasant to go outside no matter what clothes you wear. As for me, I usually stay at home if the weather is nasty and cold. I usually surf the Net, listen to music, watch TV or read books.

All in all, people are different and they like different types of weather. So many people, so many minds. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

· what wild animals live in your region

· why people build zoos in the cities and towns

· whether it is a good idea to keep a wild animal as a pet, and why

Now I would like to give a talk about animals.

To begin with, I’d like to say that there are a lot of types of animals in the region where I live. Wild animals like deer owls, foxes, hares, wolves, bears live in my region. Sometimes people can see them in the fields or in the forests.

I think people build zoos in the cities and towns because it is interesting for kids and teenagers to visit zoos. They like to go to zoos to see wild animals and feed them. Moreover, visiting a zoo gives them positive emotions and useful information about wild animals.

Nowadays some people keep wild animals as pets, but I think it is a bad idea. I suppose, to live in a flat or a house is not natural for wild animals that’s why they become aggressive and unpredictable. They can attack their owners.

All in all, to keep animals as pets or at zoos is great on the one hand, but it is cruel and dangerous on the other hand. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

· what kind of books modern teenagers enjoy reading

· whether libraries are necessary nowadays or not, and why

· what book you have read recently, and what it was about

Now I’m going to about books.

To begin with, I’d like to say that books play an important role in our life. They help us to prepare for different tests and exams, because they have of useful information. Besides, books develop our imagination, make us think. Then they can help us to solve problems and make our life interesting.

I think modern teenagers enjoy reading historical novels, adventure books, science fiction or detectives. These books are exciting.

In my opinion, libraries are not popular nowadays because people use the Net to find any information, to read online books. But, libraries are necessary at present, because not all people have an Internet access or can surf the Net.

As for me, I have read “……….” recently. It was written by… It is worth reading. I find it exciting.

All in all, it’s hard to imagine our life without books. People can’t live without reading books. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

· what people need friends for

· how long you and your friend have known each other

· what you enjoy doing together

Now I am going to give a talk about friends.

To begin with, I’d like to say that friendship is something that cannot be bought or sold. It is important to have friends because any person needs someone to communicate, share interests with. A friend is a person who can lend a helping hand if it is necessary and never betray you.

As for me, I’ve got my best friend. I have known him/her for over five years since we began studying at the same school. (We are classmates). He\she is a year older than me and he finished school last year.

No doubt that we spend much time together and enjoy it. We often go for walks, discuss different things, play computer games, do the shopping and do homework. My friend has a wonderful sense of humour and it’s always fun to be in his company. If my friend is ill or in trouble, I always try to help him to cope with his problems. He tries to cheer up me and give me advice if I have some difficulties.

In conclusion, I should say I am lucky to have my friend and I’ll try to keep up our friendship as long as I can. Friendship plays an important part in people’s lives. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

· when you have school holidays

· what school holidays you would make longer, and why

· what you enjoy doing during your school holidays

Well, now I’m going to give a talk about school holidays.

To begin with, I’d like to say that pupils have school holidays four times a year — in winter, in autumn, in spring, and in summer. No doubt, all schoolchildren look forward to their holidays because these days are the best for them. They can forget about their homework, schools and teachers.

As for me, I would make winter holidays longer. I consider that winter is the most wonderful and funniest season when people should spend more time outside playing hockey, skiing, skating, playing in the snow,

(As for me, I’d make spring holidays longer because it is the time when nature awakens from its long winter sleep and the snow begins to melt. First spring flowers such as snowdrops and tulips appear everywhere. Everybody enjoys the beginning of spring. People often go for a walk in the park, have picnics or sit by the lake in order to enjoy the sunshine and the natural beauty of the world. Besides, spring is a good time to prepare for exams.)

In my opinion, the greatest holidays are in summer. We usually have 3 months break from school during summer. They start in June and ends in the end of August. All people enjoy summer holidays very much. It is a great pleasure to have a rest after a whole year of hard work or study. Frankly speaking, I have a wonderful time swimming, sunbathing and playing different games. Sometimes we travel somewhere with my family.

In conclusion, I’d like to say that to have holidays is great. I wish holidays were all year round. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

We have to study different school subjects. As for me I have chosen English for my exam because I am interested in English and it is my favorite subject. I have been learning it for 5 years. Besides, I think it is one of the most useful and important subjects in our modern world and knowledge of English will help me to get good education and be successful in my career.

In conclusion, I want to say that school plays an important part in our life. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

In my opinion, it’s a good chance to find out interesting historical facts. I guess that the majority of tourists spend time attending museums and theaters. Moreover, tourists like to watch popular monuments of the country. Also it’s a great way to examine a foreign culture.

As for my region, it has lots of beautiful places to visit. We have got a big swimming pool, an ice palace, some sports centers, skating rings, supermarkets and so on. There is also a museum with its history. But I’d recommend tourists to visit Buzuluk Bor. It’s a forest reserve which is protected by the state government. It is a very picturesque place.

In conclusion, I’d like to say that travelling plays an important part in our life and everybody should travel as much as possible. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

I’m going to give a talk about ecological problems.

Nowadays ecological problems are becoming more and more important. People worry about them because they suffer from air, water and soil pollution. Environmental problems lead to health problems. Moreover, our planet Earth is the only place where people can live.

As for my region, air pollution is the most serious problem because there are too many cars and buses in the streets. Toxic fumes and factory wastes are harmful for elderly people and children Also people in my region cut down forests which give us oxygen. It is another serious problem.

In my opinion, young people must stop throwing rubbish. They should pick it up and put it into the rubbish bins. Besides, they should stop wasting water and energy. They must turn off the lights, water if we don’t need them.

What jobs are popular with modern teenagers монолог

Выберите только ОДНО из двух предложенных заданий (40.1 или 40.2). Укажите его номер и выполните согласно данному плану. В ответе на задание 40 числительные пишите цифрами.

40.1 Imagine that you are doing a project on how teenagers in Zetland spend their free time. You have found some data on the subject — the results of the opinion polls (see the table below).

Comment on the data in the table and give your opinion on the subject of the project.

Write 200−250 words.

Use the following plan:

— make an opening statement on the subject of the project;

— select and report 2−3 facts;

— make 1−2 comparisons where relevant;

— outline a problem that can arise with ways of spending free time and suggest a way of solving it;

— conclude by giving your opinion on the best way of spending free time.

40.2 Imagine that you are doing a project on what teenagers in Zetland use social networks for. You have found some data on the subject — the results of the opinion polls (see the diagram below).

Comment on the data in the diagram and give your opinion on the subject of the project.

What teenagers in Zetland use social networks for

To get entertained

To share and follow news

To attend fan groups

To upload photos

To promote hobbies

Write 200−250 words.

Use the following plan:

— make an opening statement on the subject of the project;

— select and report 2−3 facts;

— make 1−2 comparisons where relevant;

— outline a problem that can arise with using social networks and suggest a way of solving it;

— conclude by giving your opinion on the role of social networks in our life.

40.1 Spending free time has always been fun for teenagers. While doing a project on how teenagers in Zetland spend their free time, I found a diagram containing some relevant data that I am going to comment on.

According to the diagram, approximately half of all the teenagers in Zetland, that is 47%, choose hanging out with friends as their favourite pastime. Watching movies comes second in popularity with 20% of the surveyed. Surprisingly, only 5% of the respondents like reading the same book to discuss it later, and it is the least preferred free time activity.

The data analysis reveals that shopping online, chosen by 16% of the respondents, is almost three times as popular as reading, whereas doing online shopping is by 4% more favoured than cooking, which is practised only by 12% of the teenagers. It is quite understandable why shopping online is far more preferable: it is convenient, time-saving and fun.

Although modern teenagers are quite active in going out together, they seem to neglect reading and this seems to be a problem. To solve this problem local authorities could promote reading in public places like parks or youth centres by involving celebrities into this activity. Thus, reading and discussing could regain their popularity.

In conclusion, I believe that despite the obvious disbalance between the active and passive forms of pastime, spending one’s free time and enjoying it is vital for a teenager’s mind and body. It’s an open secret that both work and play should be balanced. (251 words)

40.2 Nowadays, using social networking sites like Instagram or Facebook has gradually become an inseparable part of teenagers’ lives as a staple means of communication. While doing a project on what teenagers in Zetland use social networks for, I found a diagram containing some relevant data that I am going to comment on.

The diagram shows that more than a half of all the teenagers in Zetland, that is 54%, use social media to get entertained. Sharing and following news ranks second in popularity with 21% of the surveyed adolescents. Unexpectedly, only 2% of the respondents use social platforms to promote their hobbies and it is the smallest amount.

The statistics analysis demonstrates that attending fan groups, which makes 12%, is six times as popular as promoting hobbies online. At the same time, uploading photos is almost as popular as being a celebrity follower and is only by 1% less popular.

Although the majority of teenagers use social networks for different purposes, none of them has mentioned using social media for learning and it seems to be a problem. One of the solutions could be promoting virtual learning communities where both teachers and learners would share their ideas and experience.

To sum up, I believe that social platforms will never become unpopular, as they provide a great opportunity to socialize, make friends, follow new trends in fashion, take up a hobby, etc. However, it is also important to be careful not to spend too much time on screens — social media are quite addictive.
