Jane's Story

Jane was an ordinary woman. She was a housewife. But she was sick of way of her life and one day she decided to change everything. From her childhood she wanted to work for travel company, so she dared to write resume and to send it to different travel agencis. It wasn't easy for her. She didn't know how to do it in right way. So, she began to search the Internet in order to find useful information. A lot of time and effort has been spent when finally Jane got her wish. She noticed that it would be better to not mince the words during writing resume. Moreover, it's nowhere near right to butter somebody up and to ham somebody up. In addition, she should seems interesrting and educated person. Jane followed these rules and wrote a worthy resume. Time went by and one company invited her to the colloquy. Frankly speaking, Jane was happy as a clam. Of course, she understood that she must be prepared for this because in another way she had egg on her face and was dead meat. Futhermore, she's not used to be red as a lobster. So, she was ready to beat the stuffing out of herself in oder to pass the interview successfully. Eventually, director of that company was agreeably surprised and he hired her with pleasure. Jane felt like she the world was her oyster. She was so delighted because she reached success. She has brought home a bacon from that time.

  1. Nice and motivating story, but you have some mistakes.
    1)It is better to say "Since her childhood"
    2) an agency - agencies
    3) Sometimes you miss articles (in THE right way)
    4) to SURF the Internet or to search for smth
    5) "A lot of time and effort has been spent..." it is better to say " A lot of time and effort has been spent AND MADE..."
    6) to fulfill / realize a wish — исполнить желание
    to make a wish — загадать желание
    to carry out smb.'s wish — выполнять чью-л. просьбу
    7) she should LOOK LIKE AN interesrting and educated person
    8) You are not attentive and make odd mistakes (Jane felt like SHE the world was her oyster).
    9) She has brought home a bacon from that time - it is better to say "Since that time she has been bringing home a bacon".
