Every summer a great many students travel to other countries looking for work and adventure. Most of the    26         are in seasonal work, mainly connected with wourism and    27         

The pay is usually poor, but most people work abroad for the     28     of travel. You can pick grapes on farms in France, entertain kids on American summer camps, and, of course, there are  29     jobs in hotels and restaurants.

   But it is not easy now to find work. “    30    you speak the language of the country well, there will be very few openings,” says Althea Ellis, an adviser in     31        for students.

“If you work with a family in Italy, you’ll have to speak Italian. When you wash dishes in a restaurant in Pairs, the owner will expect you to speak   32     . British students only have a language     33      for jobs in the USA and Australia.”

       34      enjoys the experience. Sarah James was employed to help forty American children in Europe. The two teachers with the children had never been     35      .One child lost his passport; another became seriously ill and was      36       home; the whole group was thrown out of one hotel because of the      37       they made, and what’s worse, Sarah herself was robbed on her only    38     evening of the entire trip. “ I did visit a lot of new places,” she says,“ but it wasn’t worth it. The pay was     39      and it really was a 24-hour-a-day job. The kids never slept!”

“The troubles is, students expect to have a(n)     40     time of it.” Althea Ellis points out. “After all, they see it as a    41      .In practice,     42       ,you have to work hard. At the same time, all vacation work is casual (临时的) work. You’ll have a job when the hotel, the restaurant, or the campsite is busy. In the other words, you’ll work if it’s convenient for the company that     43     you. But you have      44     employment rights. As soon as the holiday season      45      ,they’ll get rid of you.”
