تَقُولُ لَمِيسُ: فِي عَائِلَتِي مِهَنٌ مُخْتَلِفَةٌ. أَبِي مُهَنْدِسٌ يَعْمَلُ فِي مَصْنَعٍ، وَأُمِّي طَبِيبَةٌ فِي مُسْتَشْفًى. أَخِي شُرْطِيٌّ يُحِبُّ مُسَاعَدَةَ النَّاسِ. أَمَّا أَنَا فَأُرِيدُ أَنْ أَعْمَلَ مُعَلِّمَةً لِأَنِّي أُحِبُّ الأَطْفَالَ وَالتَّعْلِيمَ.

Paper 2 — Reading

تَخْتَلِفُ المِهَنُ فِي طَبِيعَتِهَا. بَعْضُهَا يَحْتَاجُ إِلَى دِرَاسَةٍ طَوِيلَةٍ مِثْلَ الطِّبِّ وَالهَنْدَسَةِ، وَبَعْضُهَا يَحْتَاجُ إِلَى مَهَارَةٍ يَدَوِيَّةٍ. المُهِمُّ أَنْ يَخْتَارَ الإِنْسَانُ مِهْنَةً يُحِبُّهَا وَتُنَاسِبُ قُدُرَاتِهِ، لِأَنَّ العَمَلَ الَّذِي نُحِبُّهُ يَجْعَلُنَا سُعَدَاءَ.

فِي عَائِلَتِي مِهَنٌ مُخْتَلِفَةٌ. أَبِي مُهَنْدِسٌ يَعْمَلُ فِي مَصْنَعٍ كَبِيرٍ، وَأُمِّي طَبِيبَةٌ فِي مُسْتَشْفًى تُسَاعِدُ المَرْضَى. أَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَعْمَلَ مُعَلِّمًا فِي المُسْتَقْبَلِ لِأَنِّي أُحِبُّ التَّعْلِيمَ وَمُسَاعَدَةَ الأَطْفَالِ. أَعْتَقِدُ أَنَّ التَّعْلِيمَ مِهْنَةٌ مُهِمَّةٌ لِأَنَّهَا تَبْنِي الأَجْيَالَ. المُهِمُّ أَنْ يَخْتَارَ الإِنْسَانُ مِهْنَةً يُحِبُّهَا وَتُنَاسِبُ قُدُرَاتِهِ.
