Procedures

▇Warming up by learning about “job hunting” Good morning, class. Today we shall take Unit 2: A Job Worth Doing. But first we have to find a job, that is, to hunt a job.

\hunting\is the act of looking for employment. It is also known as job seeking. The immediate goal of job seeking is usually to obtain a job interview and ultimately a form of employment.

The people in the pictures on page 11 are doing jobs of different types. What are you going to do in the future?

Now go to page 12. Let’s read about an unusual job. The man in the article is working as a traffic light or traffic signal. Do you think it strange? A traffic light or traffic signal is a signaling device positioned at a road intersection or pedestrian crossing to indicate when it is safe to drive, ride or walk, using a universal color code. Yes, this man is working as a signaling device, not for money but for helping people. ▇Before you read
