Starting Over Again

Ever since I can remember, I always love to draw. When I was very young, I scribbled all them over my bedroom walls until I mastered paper and pencil. Later, an enlightened schoolteacher made sure of I went on to art school and it was there did I draw my first life model, which was a wonderful experience. My tutors encouraged me to take in drawing seriously, but I ignored their advice. I wanted to do something more exciting like a career and I chose graphic design. After college, I worked for a number of years as Art Director at a small publishing company. I loved the sociability of office life, but gradually became more and more frustrated. I found myself long to draw properly again, but what meant having time to draw those things which interested me. Then, out of the black, it was announced that the firm was being reorganized and I was offered voluntary redundancy with quite a large number of cash payment. I leapt at the chance. With enough money in the bank to support me for two years, I went back to art college, determined to get my drawing skills backed up to scratch so that I could embark on a career as an illustrator.

C. The banker

While still at the London School of Economics (LSE), Wen Du got some work experience in banking. "LSE helps you to find these work placements but its’ still quite tough, so I had to do loads of networking. When you are eventually looking for a job, you need certain academic qualifications so companies will be interested in interviewing you. But, after that, it’s more about how much you know about banking, so experience while you are still at university is vital. I was working 12-13 hours a day during my placements but you take long hours in your stride provided you are learning. After I finished university, I was offered a job at one of my work placements. However, I had the opportunity to do a master's degree in finance, so I did that first. For me, salary isn’t the main priority in a first job; it’s about how much you can learn and how much responsibility your line manager will give you. I want to do well, but because there are so many uncertainties in our field, I can’t foresee where I’ll be in five years.”

D. The architect

Having eventually settled on architecture as a career, Amandine came to London from the USA and started building a portfolio of her work by attending local college courses. This got her onto a university foundation art course and then into the highly competitive Architectural Association (AA) school. “I picked the AA because it has such a close-knit family atmosphere, which for me is essential. But I knew I couldn’t go there unless I got a scholarship because the fees are so high, especially given that the course takes seven years. Even though I had two-thirds of it paid for me, I still owe a fortune, the debt is a huge weight on your shoulders at my age. I now have a job in a company that has always interested me, thanks to friends that worked here and could vouch for me. It's great to have an impressive CV but even better to have a good character reference.”

A.    The barrister

At the age of nine, without a word of English, Hashi was sent from Kenya to live in Britain, where he was raised exclusively on state benefits, with very little to live on. “I attended badly performing schools and was always moving around between different relatives.” Despite this, Hashi managed to scrape through his exams and get into university to study law. Much later, having done a master’s degree, he was inspired to become a barrister so that he could represent people in court. “But first you have to do a work replacement where you shadow a barrister. Unfortunately, it took me 18 months before I was accepted because I didn’t have any contacts in the profession. It isn't fair, but there is no point trying to pick a fight with a system.” Now a junior barrister at a top firm, Hash! attributes this outstanding achievement against the odds to a combination of the people who believed in him, the scholarships and loans which enabled him to afford the course, strong self-discipline and a lot of hard work.

B.    The fashion designer

Having set her heart from childhood on a career in costume design, Lilly worked in the theatre straight after school, only to realize that this job wasn't for her. Literature, which she tried next, bored her. “So I sent some drawing off and was accepted for an art degree, which I loved because I had tutors who knew what they were talking about. But it was the head of the course on my master’s degree in fashion who really helped me to develop my confidence and individual style. Every summer, I was taken on for a three- month work placement, organized by the college. I took these really seriously - I can’t understand people who are half-hearted about them. In my second year I was making prints 16 hours a day for a famous designer and some of them got used in his fashion collection.” However, though Lilly did work for a number of well-known designers, there were also discouragingly long periods of unemployment before she finally got a permanent job.

Câu 78:

Write a paragraph (150 words) describing your favourite film.

Xem đáp án

Suggested paragraph:

It is hard for me to choose which film is my favourite because each one has its own meaning as well as artistic value. However, the one that I have seen several times without feeling bored is 'Flipped' - a sweet teenage love story film by Rob Reiner. Released in 2010, the movie is an adaptation of an award-winning young adult novel with the same title by Wendelin Van Draanen. The story revolves around two youngsters named Bryce Loski and Juli Baker. When a new family moves into the house across the street, second-grader Juli is instantly smitten with the new boy in town. He may be trying his hardest to get away from her, but she thinks he is playing coy and shy. It is not until six years pass that the love-hate relationship reaches fruition, with both kids learning about life and love. What I am absolutely impressed by the film is the creative way that the director develops the story. Reiner, never subtle, transitions each segment with a top to bottom flip of the frame, showing how the same events are seen differently from the perspective of each actor. So, if you are looking for a story that is refreshing yet vintage, and wanting to have a lovey-dovey grin plastered on your face, this is the movie to watch.
