Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B , C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
Choosing a career may be one of the hardest jobs you ever have, and it must be done with care View a career as an opportunity to do something you love, not simply as a way to earn a living Investing the time and effort to thoroughly explore your options can mean the difference between finding a stimulating and rewarding career and move from job to unsatisfying job in an attempt to find the right one Work influences virtually every aspect of your life, from your choice of friends to where you live Here are just a few of the factors to consider
Deciding what matters most to you is essential to making the right decision You may want to
begin by assessing your likes, dislikes, strengths, and weaknesses Think about the classes, hobbies,
and surroundings that you find most appealing Ask yourself questions, such as “Would you like to travel? Do you want to work with children? Are you more suited to solitary or cooperative work?”
There are no right or wrong answers; only you know what is important to you Determine which job
features you require, which ones you would prefer, and which ones you cannot accept Then rank
them in order of importance to you

negative associations The traveling life of a flight attendant appears glamorous, while that of a
plumber does not Remember that many jobs are not what they appear to be at first, and may have merits or demerits that are less obvious Flight attendants must work long, grueling hours without sleeps, whereas plumbers can be as highly paid as some doctors
