Making a good impression
Think about what it is like when you meet someone new. After a short
time, you can 1 if this person is someone you would like to know
better. You can quickly sense if he is someone that would fit in
you and your friends. If he doesn’t fit in, you probably will not spend more time
with him.
Managers have these abilities too. Managers see many job] 3
Their first impressions are formed by what they see and sense in you. If they
don’t like what they see, they probably will not |_4 you, no matter
what your skills are.
Your appearance is one of the basic things that form an impression. It
makes a| 5 . If you look neat and clean, the impression is that
you take pride of yourself and your work. If you look dirty and unkempt,
the impression is that you may be a sloppy worker. What should you wear?
Dress in the clothes you would wear on the job. Business people should wear
suits. Workers should wear work clothes. Make sure your clothes are clean
and Le | . Your shoes should be clean and shined. When interviewing
for a job, you want to look good and smell good. Do not put on (7)
perfumes or colognes. Avoid alcohol, cigarette and onion or garlic breath. Your
body and breath should be clean and fresh.

E-mail is electronic mail, a | 1 of sending messages via a
computer to other users. It’s a wonderful new way of communicating! E-mail
is cheaper than normal mail and even if you send your message |_2
it only costs the same as a local telephone call. This is because your message
goes to computer called a mail server and then it is|_ 3 across the
Net via other mail servers to its destination.
E-mail is also much quicker and can arrive at most destinations in a
minute. In fact, ordinary mail is so slow by comparison that Net users call
it ’snail mail’.
With e-mail you also have to know someone’s address and everyone on
the Net has their own |_ 4 e-mail address. An e-mail address has
two main sections: the user’s name and the domain name. The user’s name
is usually the name or nickname of the person using e-mail, for example,
*Paul’. This is| 5 by the symbol @ which means ‘at’, Then there
is the domain name which gives information about the computer, for example,
*home’, the type of | 6 , for example, ’com’, means a commercial
and its location. So a complete e-mail address might look something like this:
Paul@home.com.uk.
E-mail addresses can be [7] “so write them down carefully. Then
you will have the address at the top of their message and you can just press
reply’.

What type of work would suit you?
Jobs are more|_1 that ever; not all workers are simply employed
by company. There are lots more people working on short and fixed term
2 , instead of full-time, permanent ones. Some people choose to get
temporary jobs through an employment agency. This means that they work for
different companies for aset| 3 of time.
Other people work on a freelance basis, meaning that they work for
themselves, but take on short-term contracts for companies. Freelancers often
have a great deal of experience in a specialized] 4 | . The workforce is
now more skilled and qualified than ever. With employers having a larger group
of candidates to choose from, it can be hard to get into work if you cannot show
that you have certain qualifications or skills.
Starting at 9.00 a.m. and finishing at 5.00 p.m. with an hour for lunch
somewhere in the middle, may still be|_ 5 a working day, but for more
and more people it is not a reality. Some job, like nursing or manufacturing,
depend | 6 using shift patterns, which means working during the
night and early morning. Some jobs will be outside, some will be in an office,
some will be in a workshop or industrial environment and some will be more
physically demanding than others. When you are applying for a job or planning
al 7 , it may be worth thinking about what sort of environment you
work best in and whether you have other commitments or responsibilities that
could prevent you from having different working hours.

Producing fresh drinking water from sea-water normally requires lots
of energy. This means that the water costs more to produce and that more
pollution is produced|_1 COz emissions.
Recently, however, it has become possible to| 2 sea-water into
drinking water onasmall| 3 using renewable energy. These systems
are very useful in helping to provide drinking water in dry, rural areas.
A German organization has developed a method using solar energy. Solar
panels provide the energy to heat sea-water. When the water | 4
to steam, it passes through a membrane. The membrane allows the steam to
pass, but it doesn’t let the salt through. On|_5 side of the membrane,
the steam cools and becomes clean water. This small system can produce
about | 20 litres of drinking water a day.
In Holland scientists have developed a different method using wind Le |
. As the arms of a windmill turn, they provide energy to power a pump.
The pump forces salt water through a membrane. The membrane lets the
water pass but not the salt. No electricity is needed for this process. The energy
provided is purely mechanical. Using this method, it is possible to create a
reservoir of water. In this way, there is always a|_7 of drinking water
even when there is no wind. The system can produce enough fresh water for
the daily needs of about 500 people.
