**Emar Grade 12 First Revision** **Read the following text and answer the questions:** Not all people have the ability to explore their future and build it with more confidence and clarity. Most studies have highlighted the role of parents as active agents in the career development of their children. Parents want their children to [opt for] a career they know well about, but what their children want or [aspire] to become can be completely different. Many parents said they had [misguided] their children into choosing a career of their choice. It is very important not to [burden] our children with unreal expectations. There are a few factors that are of great importance in the career selection process. The child\'s [aptitude] is a mirror of his/her personality, strengths, and weaknesses. Hence, a designed aptitude test can reveal a lot of information regarding the child that can help in taking a well-informed career selection. It is very difficult to spend your life working in a field that you are not interested in. Courses leading towards a desired career should be found easily for the young to enable them to make right decisions about their future. Psychologists said that it was very easy for a child to get [swayed] by peer pressure into choosing a career that the majority was opting rather than the one which was best for him/her. Although it should not be the most important, [remuneration] of a career holds value in one\'s life; nobody likes to earn little. A job\'s earnings should match the child\'s aspirations and provide a satisfying comfortable life. Modern societies need professionals in every field: utility workers, garbage collectors, farmers, nurses, doctors, engineers, teachers professors and many others. Furthermore, [demotivation] might have a negative impact on the child\'s mental health when rejecting all of his/her ideas. Parents can work together to gather information about a career and then help the child in deciding whether it is suitable or not. Most people have dreams of future jobs and there\'s no limit to what this could be, but we can\'t be absolutely certain about our career choices. Researchers told us that through self-reflection and guided activities, we would find our core values and a clearer path towards the right career. **1.What do most studies highlight regarding career development?** A\) The role of schools B) The role of parents C) The role of peer D) The role of society **2.According to the text, what do parents usually want for their children?( How do most parents nowadays guide their children to choose their future career?)** A\) To choose a career they are passionate about B) To follow a career they know well C\) To choose a career their friends are pursuing D) To explore various career options **3.What can often differ between parents and their children regarding career choices?** A\) Financial expectations B) Educational background C) Career aspirations D) Geographic location **4.How can parents unintentionally misguide their children?** A\) By encouraging them to travel B) By pushing them into a career of their choice C\) By providing too many options D) By ignoring their educational needs **5.What is important to avoid when guiding children in their career selection?** A\) Unreal expectations B) Providing information C) Career counseling D) Peer pressure Mrs. Khadijah Mahmoud **6.What does a child\'s aptitude reflect?** A\) Only strengths B) Personality, strengths, and weaknesses C) Only weaknesses D) Only interests **7.What can a well-designed aptitude test reveal?** **8.Why is it difficult to work in a field you are not interested in?** A\) It doesn\'t pay well B) It lacks job security C) It affects job satisfaction D) It involves long hours **9.What should courses leading towards a career be able to do?** A\) Give them job security B) Teach people to get high salaries C\) Guide people into choosing the career that suits them the most D) Get peer approval **10.What can peer pressure influence in a child's career choice?** A\) Career remuneration B) Career selection C) Academic performance D) Leisure activities **11.According to psychologists, what should not be the most important in career choice** A\) Job satisfaction B) Remuneration C) Job security D) Peer pressure **12.Why does remuneration hold value in one's life?** A\) It enhances job security B) It provides a satisfying comfortable life C\) It reflects academic achievements D) It ensures peer approval **13.According to the text, utility workers and garbage collectors.......... :** A\) are not well remunerated B) are unhappy people C)are needed D)are doing a great job **14.What does modern society need?** A\) Professionals in every field B) More engineers and doctors C\) Higher salaries for all jobs D) More universities **15.According to the text, demotivation may.................** A\) encourage academic achievements B) impact a child\'s mental health C\) have a negative influence on a child D) both B and C **16.What is a suggested way for parents to help their children in career decisions?** A\) By rejecting all their ideas B) By gathering information and guiding them C\) By choosing a career for them D) By focusing on remuneration Mrs. Khadijah Dayoub Mahmoud **17.According to the text, what is there no limit to?** A\) Future jobs B) Educational opportunities C) Personal happiness D) Financial success **18.Through what methods can we find a clearer path towards the right career, according to researchers?(What do researchers recommend to choose our future career?)** A\) Traveling and networking B) Self-reflection and guided activities C\) Reading and writing D) Peer pressure and societal norms **19. \"Aspire\" means:** A\) breathe B) advance C ) to seek to attain a goal D) give up **20. \"Burden\" means:** A\) reduce B) improve C ) load D) written **21. \"Aptitude\" means:** A\) quality B) natural ability C ) skill D) both B and C **22. \"Swayed\" means:** A\) danced B)found C ) lost D) influenced **23. \"Remuneration\" means:** A\) tip B) borrowed money C ) money paid for services D)money given to someone as a debt **24. \"Demotivation\" means:** A\) help B) making someone more eager or willing to do their job C ) to seek to attain a goal D) making someone less eager to do their job **25. \"Misguide\" means:** A ) misunderstand B )achieve C )approach D )mislead **26. \"Opt for \" means:** A)select B )choose C )prefer D) all of the previous **27.According to the text, many parents...** A\) know what is best for their children B) help their children financially C\) misguided their children D) love their children **28.

DBCA Activity Most people think that education is limited to schools only, but the truth is that there are lessons that we can only learn from life, and they may be more important than those learnt at schools. Life lessons are sometimes painful before they are acquired, and in order to avoid this, we must benefit from the experiences of others. We shouldn\'t pay too much attention to the trivial things that are not important and waste our time and effort. Since life is so unpredictable, we must not live on expectations only and meet everything new in life with optimism and positive thinking. There is no word more boring and monotonous than the word \"I\". We must be confident of ourselves , but that does mean we talk about ourselves and our accomplishments all the time, as this inherits vanity. Human relationships are also important because without love and support from family and friends, you will not feel happy and will not achieve success in life. Man by nature makes mistakes, so be tolerant and seek excuses for those around you, and if someone comes to you with an apology, do not stop him, and do not carry in your heart any envy of anyone. There are no alternatives to exercising, eating well, fresh air and sunshine. Take care of your health and make it a priority for your entire life. The pursuit of success will make you succeed in the end, no matter how long the period is, but keep trying. Failure is a great teacher in life. It teaches us humility and how to correct our course of life. A great example is Thomas Edison. He failed many times, but he did not give up until he succeeded. Even when he failed, Edison learned something.\" I get results in everything I try,\" he said. The golden rule for everybody is to be honest, trustful, useful and generous so that they leave life with a trace that those around them will not forget about.
