Text 1 Jobless Young Told to Work for No Pay to Earn Benefits by Oliver Wright, The Independent, 29th August 2012 (315 words)

Young people leaving education with no job to go to will be made to do three months full-time unpaid work experience with charities and social enterprises or have their benefits cut, the Government has announced.

Under new plans, 18 to 24-year-olds who have spent less than six months in employment since leaving school or college will have to work at least 30 hours a week to get their £56-a-week jobseeker's allowance. They will also get a 10 hours a week help preparing their CVs and searching for a job.

Some 968,000 aged 16 to 24 are now not in employment, education or training, up from 949,000 in the first quarter of the year, although 16- and 17-year-olds will not be covered by the scheme as they are ineligible for jobseeker's allowance.

Ministers denied the plan amounted to "slave labour" and claimed it was designed to ensure that young people leaving education got into the routine of work immediately and didn't become used to a "benefits lifestyle". "We don't want them waking up at lunchtime and playing computer games all day," said a Department of Work and Pensions source.

However, the move has been criticised by Labour and the unions who said more effort should be put into organising paid training for young people that was directly relevant to future employment.

The scheme will initially be launched in London but is expected to be rolled out around the country.

Announcing the move, the Employment Minister, Chris Grayling, said the scheme would help young Londoners improve their career prospects. "A something-for-nothing culture does no one any favours," he said. "It makes those who are doing the right thing cynical. And for those who head straight into the welfare state, it sets them out in life on precisely the wrong footing."

The scheme will be tested in 16 London boroughs including the areas affected by last year's riots.

Assignment

0. Ex.: Young people will be made to do unpaid work because they have…

Text

For anyone fortunate enough to have a job in this economic downturn, the empty cubicles around you likely mean more responsibilities - and a greater daily workload - to cover for positions that have been cut. If you're being asked to do the work of two - or more - workers, here are five ways to cope with the extra items on your list.

0

Even if your work plate is full already, you really shouldn't say no when the boss approaches you with additional duties. Instead, engage your supervisor in a dialogue about the specifics of the situation, by asking questions about how long the new assignment will last and what will be expected.

Once you understand the scope of your expanded job description, ask your manager what must get done on a daily basis - and which projects can be deferred - and organize yourself accordingly. "Clearly, in this situation, you can't afford to waste time," says Paul Facella, president of a consulting firm.

Be sure to speak up, as you identify ways to improve your department's practices or the overall efficiency of company operations. "It's certainly not the time to be quiet and shy about anything you're contributing that you believe will be more cost-saving and efficient," Facella says.

Volunteering to take a course to boost certain skills or gain a specialized certification can both ease your ability to complete unfamiliar chores and demonstrate your commitment to your company's stability. The new skills set also will help if you're part of the next round of job cuts. "This economic environment clearly is going to be here for a few years," Facella says. "The more prepared you are, the better off you are."

Every 90 minutes or so, you should at least get up from your desk and stretch. Or better yet, take a 10-minute walk, shoot some hoops or grab coffee with a friend. "We tend to think we have to be chained to our desks for 11 hours a day," Facella says. "It's a self-care issue."

Text: Demi-Pair in Neuseeland.

von Lisa Hintze (Quelle: http://www.aupair-erfahrungsberichte.de/demi_pair_neuseeland/lisa_hintze_berichtet_ aus_wellington_sdinsel__neuseeland, adaptiert, 358 Wörter)

Schon ein halbes Jahr bevor ich mein Abitur gemacht habe, war mir klar, dass ich nach 12 ½ Jahren Schule etwas ganz Neues sehen und erleben wollte. So entschied ich mich nach dem Abitur ins Ausland zu gehen. Nach einigem Stöbern im Internet stieß ich auf das Demi-Pair Programm – Wellington. Es überzeugte mich sofort, da die Länge eines dreimonatigen Zeitraumes für mich genau richtig war und die Kombination von halbtägigem Englischunterricht, ergänzt durch einen Aufenthalt in einer Gastfamilie, in der ich die Aufgaben eines Au-pairs übernehmen sollte, mir auf Anhieb gefiel. Jeden Morgen besuchte ich von 9 Uhr bis 12 Uhr das Campbell

Institute, um mein Englisch weiter zu verbessern. Der am ersten Tag durchgeführte Sprachtest ergab, dass ich die IELTS-Klasse besuchen sollte. Der IELTS-Test ist ein international anerkannter Sprachtest, der dazu berechtigt, auch an Universitäten im Ausland zu studieren. Der tägliche Unterricht und die wöchentlichen Tests bereiteten einen sehr gut auf die schwierigen Anforderungen des IELTS-Tests vor. Nachdem um 12 Uhr der Unterricht beendet war, hatte ich noch viel Zeit, da ich mit meiner eigentlichen Arbeit in meiner Gastfamilie erst am späten Nachmittag beginnen sollte. So genoss ich meine freie Zeit, indem ich Wellington erkundete, Fahrradtouren machte und Freunde besuchte. Mein weiteres Nachmittagsprogramm bestand darin, dass ich, sobald ich zu Hause war, eigentlich direkt am Familienleben meiner Gastfamilie teilnahm. Manchmal aßen wir zusammen unser Mittagessen und ich spielte oder schaute eine DVD mit Betty (4 Jahre) und Kristina (6 Jahre). Ab 17 Uhr war ich dann an fünf Abenden in der Woche mit den Mädchen allein, so war ich dafür verantwortlich, das Abendessen zuzubereiten und die beiden ins Bett zu bringen. Die drei Monate in meiner Gastfamilie gingen schnell um, und so hieß es bald schon wieder Abschied nehmen, was mir nicht leicht fiel. Mein Neuseelandaufenthalt hat sich wirklich gelohnt und ich würde jedem, der die Möglichkeit hat, für eine Zeitlang im Ausland zu leben, raten, dies unbedingt zu machen! Nicht nur mein Englisch hat sich enorm verbessert, sondern ich habe ein tolles Land kennen gelernt, abwechslungsreiche, atemberaubende Landschaften gesehen, neue Freunde gefunden, alles in allem habe ich am anderen Ende der Welt eine zweite Heimat gefunden. Lisa (Demi-Pair Wellington)
