Veronica Vorobet learned about caring in her home country of Romania by nursing her grandparents. In 2013,
after their deaths, she moved to England to find a job using the freedom provided by EU (European
Union)membership.
Vorobet, 36, is one of a quarter of a million care workers who are not UK citizens, a rising percentage of
whom have come from the EU in recent years.They have become an essential part of a low-paid workforce that is
constantly understaffed(人手不足的），with about 120,000 unoccupied positions.
Yesterday, she expressed disappointment with the announcement that there would be no special treatment for
carers coming into the UK after Brexit -British exit from the EU.
“I want to see people treated the way I want to be treated and to make a difference in people's lives, making a
feeling of home for everyone,” she told the Guardian. “The foreign workers are important in this. They are able to
work under a lot of stress and long hours. In my country we are very close to our elderly people and that is what we
show here. We try to be close to them and respect their wishes."
She said her approach was to treat residents as if they were her own grandparents and provide similar levels of
“support and love.” When she arrived in the UK, Vorobet started as a junior care worker on minimum wage in a
home for older people in Petersfield, Hampshire. Seven years on and having studied for an NVQ in health and
social care, she is a deputy(副的) care manager at St Anthony's residential care home in Watford, part of RMD
Care. There she works alongside other Romanian people, and care workers from Indian, Sri Lanka and Kenya.
Her most recent trial has been keeping coronavirus(冠状病毒）out of the home, so far successfully. She said
that given the difficulty of taking on care workers, European workers have helped create stability in the workforce.
Staff turnover rates in adult social care currently stand at about 30% a year.
“The government should do their research and find out who does these jobs and understand the risk of taking
this decision. The risk is that there won't be enough staff to look after the people in need," she said.
4. Why does the author mention “with about 120,000 unoccupied positions" in Paragraph 2?
A. To predict the future workforce in the UK.
B. To highlight the current situation of the UK.
C. To show the importance of foreign carers in the UK.
D. To reveal foreign carers' determination to stay in the UK.
5. What does Vorobet think of foreign carers in the UK?
A. They are hardworking and considerate.
B. They are unwilling to work with a low pay.
C. They work at the risk of being physically abused.
D. They have to leave their countries to seek a fortune.
6. The underlined part “this decision” in the last paragraph refers to the decision that.
A. European workers must be fired soon
B. foreign carers will be treated with a low pay
C. foreign carers in the UK will be given no particular treatment
D. the British government bans European workers from finding jobs in England
7. What's the main purpose of this passage?
A. To introduce Vorobet, a woman from UK.
B. To present the current situation of the EU carers.
C. To reveal the problems of the UK after Brexit.
D. To predict the future workforce in the UK.
C
Many older people around the world have at least one common concern: How to get younger people, hooked
on their electronic devices, interested in classic art. Take the Monkey King, or Sun Wukong, as an example. The
main character in the 16th-century classic novel, Journey to the West, is a romantic figure of bravery and adventure
that charmed millions of readers before the appearance of online attractions.
Havoc in Heaven, a new Peking Opera film, attracted the wider public to the glamor of the traditional Chinese
performance art, featuring one of the best-known chapters from Journey to the West. This film, expected to create a
new channel to promote Peking Opera, includes nearly all the key ingredients of Peking Opera. It covers all the
basic techniques, more than 10 classic tunes, and makeup for dozens of facial representations of different figures’
characteristics.
