Read the text. Choose from the sentences (A–F) the one which fits each gap (1–5). There is one extra sentence. During World War Two, George Dupré worked for Canadian intelligence. For much of the war, he worked in an office in Winnipeg, Canada, although he was sent to Britain later in the conflict. When he returned to Canada after the war, people were naturally interested in hearing about what he had done. (1) He told his fascinated listeners about how he was sent to France to work undercover. Eventually, he had been arrested by the Germans, who had recognised his importance to the war effort. They had tortured him for information but George was strong and brave. He had refused to tell them anything. He was the man who wouldn’t talk. 1.It proved to be quite simple to keep up the deception. 2.He arranged to meet George, claiming that he too had worked for Canadian intelligence in Europe.
3.It was such a good story that people still enjoyed it, even though they knew it wasn’t true. 4.It helped that one or two of the stories were actually true. George really had been a wartime hero.
5.George was a good storyteller and he slowly started to exaggerate his role in the war so that his stories became more and more sensational.
6. A writer, called Quentin Reynolds, had the idea of writing a book about George.
I FELT rather poor lately, so this morning at nine I WENT to the doctor. I FOUND him alone in his waiting-room, where he WAS STANDING by the window.
“Where ARE your patients? HAVE you CURED them all?” I ASKED.
“The reason why people AREN'T CROWDING into this room now is that on Wednesday I DON'T BEGIN consultations here until half past ten. Such HAS BEEN my habit for the last twenty-five years.’
I’m sorry I CAME too early I SAID, 'I WILL GO and COME BACK later“.
“Oh, no. I PREFER early patients to late ones. In the course of my practice I HAVE NOTICED the late-comers VISIT the doctor because they NEED some sympathy. They are like a dog that once CAME here with a sore paw; I BANDAGED it for him and while I WAS DOING this he WAS LOOKING at me with great lonely eyes. He CAME BACK the next day and every day until his paw BECAME well. I FOUND OUT that his master HAS GONE AWAY. The dog is old now but he IS still COMING.
Существуют три основные группы профессий: Профессии, торги, рабочие места.
Традиционно, профессия это- занятие, которое требует интеллектуальный труд и высшее образование в университете или академии. Таким образом мы говорим о профессии врача, профессии учителя, профессии инженера и т.д
Торговля- это профессия, которая требует высокий уровень мастерства рук и опыт практической, теоретической подготовки. Механики, слесари, портные, ткачи, парикмахеры и тд тоже учились торговать.
Многие профессии не являются не сделками, ни профессиями. Мы часто называем их "Рабочими местами" В этом смысле термин включает в себя работу неквалифицированных и недостаточно квалифицированных занятий с одной стороны, и занятия, которые требуют знаний и умственных навыков- с другой. Разделительные линии между торговлей, рабочими местами и профессий не всегда ясны
