A. Make at least 3 paragraphs about your favourite job in the future

Answer :
I want in my future work to be able to use my abilities, feel independent, get self-
satisfaction and get good pay. In addition, I want to have continuous pleasure and
interest rather than routine work, which brings boredom and kills motivation and
development.

I would like my future job to be as a financial manager, which I believe is an

important job for me. This is related to my love of counting and money.

One of the main goals in my future work is the continuation of development and
getting to different and higher positions. I think it will be more challenging and
exciting.

In conclusion, I want to be successful in my future work and be an active person to

advance my country. I want to be useful to my family and make them proud and
happy. Now, I study hard to gain more knowledge and acquire different skills to meet
my needs.

E. Business culture: Read the statement below

Japan: Female Bosses
• Women account for fewer than 0.8% of the CEOs at Japanese companies that have
shares listed
on the stock market. In the USA, women head nine (1.8%) of the Fortune 500
companies.
• Japan ranks well below average — No. 38 out of 58 countries studied — in
providing economic
opportunities to women, according to a recent study by the World Economic Forum.
(The USA ranked No. 17, and Sweden was No. 1.)

1. What do you think about the statement above?

Answer :
In my opinion, women workers are now very competitive with male workers, even
with workers from foreign countries and cannot be underestimated. even in other
countries there are many female bosses, because women's abilities also exceed
men's.
- GOOD LUCK 😊 -
