Choosing an Occupation
One of the most important problems a young person faces is deciding what to do. There are some people, of course, who from the time are six years old know that they want to be doctors or pilots or fire fighters, but the majority of us do not get around to making a decision about an occupation or career until somebody or something forces us to face the problem
Choosing an occupation takes time, and there are a lot of things you have to think about as you try to decide what you would like to do. You may find that you will have to take special courses to qualify for a particular kind of work, or you may find out that you will need to get actual work experience to gain enough knowledge to qualify for a particular job
Fortunately, there are a lot of people you can turn to for advice and help in making your decision. At most schools, there are teachers who are professionally qualified to give you detailed information about job qualifications. And you can talk over your ideas with family members and friends who are always ready to listen and to offer suggestions

Now youll hear two long conversations
Conversation One
W:OK, last night you were supposed to read an article about human bones. Are there any comments about it?
M:Well, to begin with, I was surprised to find out there was so much going on in bones. I always assumed they were pretty lifeless
W:Well, thats an assumption many people make. But the fact is bones are made of dynamic living tissue that requires continuous maintenance and repair
M:Right. Thats one of the things I found so fascinating about the article the way the bones repair themselves
W:OK. So can you tell us how the bones repair themselves?
M:Sure. See, there are two groups of different types of specialized cells in the bone that work together to do it. The first group goes to an area of the bone that needs repair. This group of cells produces the chemical that actually breaks down the bone tissue, and leaves a hole in it. After that the second group of specialized cells comes and produces the new tissue that fills in the hole that was made by the first group
W:Very good. This is a very complex process. In fact, the scientists who study human bones dont completely understand it yet. They are still trying to find out how it all actually works. Specifically, because sometimes after the first group of cells leaves a hole in the bone tissue, for some reason, the second group doesnt completely fill in the hole. And this can cause real problems. It can actually lead to a disease in which the bone becomes weak and is easily broken
M:OK, I get it. So if the scientists can figure out what makes the specialized cells work, maybe they can find a way to make sure the second group of cells completely fills the hole in the bone tissue every time. Thatll prevent the disease from ever occurring

Conversation Two
M: Hi Diana, mind if I sit down?
W: Not at all, Jerry. How have you been?
M:Good. But Im surprised to see you on the city bus. Your car in the shop?
W:No. Ive just been thinking a lot about the environment lately. So I decided the air will be a lot cleaner if we all use public transportation when we could
M:Im sure you are right. The diesel bus isnt exactly pollution free
W:True. Theyll be running a lot cleaner soon. We were just talking about that in my environmental engineering class
M:What could the city do? Install pollution filters in all their buses?
W:They could, but those filters make the engines work harder and really cut down on the fuel efficiency. Instead they found a way to make their engines more efficient
M: How?
W:Well, there is a material thats a really good insulator. And a thin coat of it gets sprayed on the certain part of the engine
M: An insulator?
W:Yeah. What it does is reflect back the heat of burning fuel. So the fuel will burn much hotter and burn up more completely
M:So a lot less unburned fuel comes out to pollute the air
W:And the bus will need less fuel. So with the saving on fuel cost, they say this will all pay for itself in just six months
M:Sounds like people should all go out and get some this stuff to spray their car engines
W:Well, its not really that easy. You see, normally, the materials are fine powder. To melt it so you can spray a coat of it on the engine parts, you first have to heat it over 10,000 degrees and then, well, you get the idea. Its not something you or I will be able to do ourselves

Passage One
A guide dog is a dog especially trained to guide a blind person. Dogs chosen for such training must show good intelligence, physical fitness, and responsibility
At the age of about fourteen months, a guide dog begins an intensive course that lasts from three to five months. It becomes accustomed to the leather harness and stiff leather handle it will wear when guiding its blind owner. The dog learns to watch traffic and to cross streets safely. It also learns to obey any command that might lead its owner into danger
The most important part of the training course is a four-week program in which the guide dog and its future owner learn to work together. However, many blind people are unsuited by personality to work dogs. Only about a tenth of the blind find a guide dog useful

Passage Two
People dream four to six times a night. They dream while they are in the REM stage of sleep, which means rapid eye movement stage in ones sleep. Sleepers go into the REM stage about every 90 minutes. The first dream of the night may last about ten minutes. Each dream gets a little longer. The last dream of the night may be an hour long
People need their dreams. Younger children spend more time dreaming. Babies spend almost half of their sleep in the REM stage
One experiment showed that everyone needs to dream. Doctors gave some people sleeping pills. These sleeping pills didnt let them go to REM sleep. After a few nights without dreams, they began to feel bad. They became angry easily, they worried a lot, and they wanted to fight with everyone. Then they stopped taking the sleeping pills. They all began to dream all night for a few nights to catch up
Why do people dream? Dreams give them time to find the answers to some of their problems. If they think they will have difficult problems the next day, they may spend more time on REM sleep the night before. In their dreams, they may find an answer to their problems
