IV. Read and translate the text “My future profession”

Hi, my name is Sasha. I finished my school and entered the Astrakhan College of Building and Economics. Usually, pupils’ plans for the future change many times during the school years. That’s what happened to me.

When I was about 10 years old I wanted to become a doctor, then I changed my mind and since I was enjoying playing computer games I decided to become a computer programmer.

But playing games and making programs is not the same. So I changed my mind again and didn’t know what profession to choose. And then I looked at my parents. They are engineers.

Their profession is always available, they help people the most, and they make their lives more comfortable. When I told my parents about my decision they were very excited because I followed their steps.

I decided to enter the Astrakhan College of Building and Economics and then continue my education in the university. I like the profession I will be given and I will try to make the life of the citizens of my city more comfortable.
