GO GAP

More and more graduates are taking a year out: to stop, reflect, and to work out what they want to do with their lives.

According to Anne-Marie Martin, director of the Careers Group, University of London, there can be many benefits to a year out, but it depends on what you do and why. “If all you do after university is sit around watching TV, there is probably little benefit […]. But if you go travelling, decide to increase your skills in some way or try your hand at temporary jobs to see what suits you, then it can be hugely valuable.”

When 23-year-old Alice Clarfelt took a year off after uni, she didn’t just want to travel – she wanted to immerse herself in another culture.

Alice, who has an MA in English from Leeds, spent nine months teaching about sexual health and HIV / AIDS to young people in the eastern Cape, South Africa, with the charity SPW (Student Partnership Worldwide).

“I was living in a little mud hut in a rural community. I’d get up, go and fetch water from about half an hour away, come back, boil the water in order to wash, prepare for the day, and do a workshop in the school.” […]

Alice says she has benefited from the global perspective she gained from the trip. “In my community, they didn’t have any running water,” she says. So Alice took it upon herself to go to the municipal offices and make a case for a water tap – something she says she’d never have done at home. “They actually came, investigated it all, wrote up a report and they’re now building a tap and a well in the community. And I was like ‘Yeah, I’ve really achieved something.’”

Anne-Marie Martin says Alice’s experiences will impress future employers. “Independently travelling around, learning how to stand on your own two feet and understanding how to fit into different cultures gives you a maturity which employers are going to recognise and be interested in.”

CORRECTION

valeriekessler54 — 2022-01-06 12:13:05 UTC

Read lines 1 to 8. a. Find the expressions meaning:

- développer vos compétences: “increase your skills”
- ce qui vous va: “what suits you”
- utile, précieux : “valuable

b. Explain the purpose of a gap year. According to the text, students take time “to stop, reflect, and to work out what they want to do with their lives.” They use this time to discover what they would like to do in the future and what career they would be interested in.

2 What do students usually do during their gap year? Some students probably “sit around watching TV” but others find better things to do. They usually choose to “go travelling” and have a job experience. So a gap year can be really useful for the future.

3 Explain what Alice Clarfelt did after university.

After university, she wanted to discover another culture / to “immerse herself in another culture” so she went to South Africa and taught the young population about sexual health and AIDS.

4 Describe her living conditions and her daily routine. Her living conditions were quite basic:

she lived in a mud hut that had no running water.
She lived in a small community, which is very different from Leeds / from her hometown.
Every morning, she got up, walked for thirty minutes to fetch some water, boiled it to wash and then she got ready for a workshop at the school where she worked.
5 Read lines 18 to 24.
a. Find the expressions meaning:
- prendre l’initiative de: take something upon oneself
- plaider en faveur de: make a case for

b. Say what Alice’s main achievement was.

Her main achievement that year was to contribute to building a well and a water tap. She helped convince the city officials that this project was an important and useful one.

c. Explain how she feels when she says “Yeah, I’ve really achieved something.” She must have felt quite proud of herself because she has managed to convince officials to take concrete actions to improve the community’s living conditions. It was quite a challenge for her. She must have felt quite useful, too. She achieved something that had a concrete use for the village.

6 List all the advantages of a gap year. Justify your answer by quoting from the text.
