You have to do a lot of hard hammering, chiseling, scraping and polishing.What is the recipe for successful achievement To my mind there are just four essential ingredients: Choose a career you love, give it the best there is in you, seize your opportunities, and be a member of the team.Discuss these questions:Are you ambitious Do you like ambitious people WhyDo you have a career plan Where do you want to be in 10 years’ timeWhich would you prefer to doWork for one company during your career;Work for several different companies;Work for yourselfWhich of the following areas would you like to work inSales & Marketing; Administration & Personnel; Finance; Production; Management; R&DYou should give reasons for your choice of work.What should you do to get ahead in your careerAttend conferences; Study extra qualification; Change job; Work hard; Get help from others; NetworkSupplementary Reading:Career break is a period of time out from employment. Traditionally, this was for mothers to raise children, but it is now used for people taking time out of their career for personal or professional development.A career break is usually between one month and two years long. Six months to 2 years is the most common period of time for a career break.The career break has grown in popularity over the last five years, with 75% of the British workforce currently considering a career break. Around 90,000 professionals are estimated to take a career break every year. It is most common in the UK, where it grew out of the gap year concept. The career break is sometimes referred to as an 'adult gap year', which reflects the commitment towards developing skills and gaining experience while out of the workforce.How to make your career moveDon't pick a job. Pick a boss. Your first boss is probably the biggest factor in your career success. A boss who doesn't trust you won't give you opportunities to grow. A boss who's too easy on you won't drive you to improve. When you accept your first job, you're hiring a tutor to teach you about work. Be sure to hire wisely.Over time, the most important skill for advancing your career is learning how to work to an agenda rather than to a schedule. A successful business person always kills more than one bird with one stone.Figure out what needs to happen, then find ways to make it happen. A 30-second elevator exchange can be as productive as a one-hour meeting, but only if you know in advance what you need from the encounter.I left a great job as head of interactive media at Microsoft for one reason: the passion was gone. My pocketbook, ego, and sense of excitement were being satisfied, but I no longer had passion for the challenges I faced each day. Lots of people thought I was crazy to walk away from it all. But I felt like a juggler -- managing projects, budgets, and people. Eventually I found my dream job. It aligns my personal expertise and goals with an opportunity to put technology in the hands of people who otherwise would not have access to it. No matter how high your career registers on the conventional charts, you've got to listen to your heartWomen’s Role in SocietyWhat exactly are the roles women should play in society Some people say they should stay at home, raising children and taking care of their husbands. Some people argue that the careers women could choose are only nurses, teachers and secretaries because they are most suitable to them. As a matter of fact, women in a modern society are playing more and more important roles. In addition to those traditional careers, they can be astronauts, scientists,politicians, entrepreneurs and so on. They are doing what men are doing now. The concept that women hold up half of the sky is generally accepted. Though in some countries, a woman, after giving birth to a baby, might stay at home and bring up the child, she tends to go back to work after the child is independent. Women in many countries are an indispensable labor force in the present world.VocabularyCareer moveCareer breakCareer planCareer opportunitiesLanguage review: Modal verbcan (ability, requests & offer)Describe ability:I can speak English and German.I can play the piano and violin.I can work on weekends.Make a request:Can I make a quick phone call in your officeCan you tell me more about yourselfCould you please book a flight ticket for meMake an offer:Can I help you with your luggageCan I get you some coffeeI can show you the way to the library.I can post the letter for you on my waySkills: Telephoning, making contactWhich of the following do you think is most effective for communication Which do you use most often WhyA.
