One way of training for your future occupation in Germany is by pursuing a dual vocational training
programme. Such programmes offer plenty of opportunity for on-the-job training and work experience.
Programmes usually last between two and three and a half years and comprise theoretical as well as
practical elements. You will spend one or two days a week, or several weeks at once, at a vocational
school where you will acquire the theoretical knowledge that you will need in your future occupation.
The rest of the time will be spent at a company. There you get to apply your newly acquired knowledge
in practice, for example by learning to operate machinery. You will get to know what your company does,
learn how it operates and find out if you can see yourself working there after completing your training.
This combination of theory and practice gives you a real head start into your job: by the time you
have completed your training, you will not only have the required technical knowledge, but you will also
have hands-on experience in your job. There are around 350 officially recognised training programmes
in Germany, so chances are good that one of them will suit your interests and talents. You can find out
which one that might be by visiting one of the jobs and vocational training fairs which are organised in
many German cities at different times in the year.
Employment prospects for students who have completed a dual vocational training programme are
very good. This is one of the reasons why this kind of training is very popular with young Germans:
around two thirds of all students leaving school go on to start a vocational training programme.

programmes?

school.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the following questions.
WORLD POPULATION AND CLIMATE CHANGE
In many ways, the increasingly rapid pace of climate change is a direct result of the growth of the human
population. In the last 100 years, the world population has more than tripled, from just under 2 billion at
the beginning of the century to nearly 7 billion today. Obviously, this has meant that the world has
needed to produce three times as much food, energy, and other natural resources.
In addition, the average person uses more energy and natural resources than the average person one
hundred years ago, meaning that the rates of consumption are actually much higher than just the
increase in population would imply. For example, it took the world 125 years to use the first one trillion
barrels of oil. The next trillion barrels will be used in less than 30 years, which is almost 5 times as fast,
not three.
All of these activities: food production, energy usage, and the use of natural resources, contribute to
climate change in some way. The greater amounts of oil and other fuels burned to create energy release
chemicals which add to global warming. In order to produce more food farmers cut down trees to gain
more land for their fields. In addition, we cut down trees to build the houses needed for a larger
population. Those trees are an essential part of controlling global warming. These are just two examples
of the impacts that the growing population has on global warming; others are too numerous to mention.
In addition to a growing population, the world also has a population that desires a higher standard of
living than in the past, and a higher standard of living requires the use of even more natural resources. A
look at one country will provide a clear example of this fact. China is the world's most populous nation,
with 1.3 billion people. Currently, the standard of living for most of those people is far below that of
people in first world nations. Therefore, the average Chinese citizen uses far fever natural resources and
less energy than the average citizen of the US or Japan. But China is growing in power, and more of its
citizens are beginning to expect a first world lifestyle. If every Chinese person attains a first world
lifestyle, the amount of energy and natural resources needed in the world will double, even if the
standard of living in every other nation on Earth remains the same as it is today.
