Read the following passage and answer the questions.
With important exceptions, then, the transition from school to work is on the whole fairly smooth for most boys and girls or, at least, the attractions are greater than the difficulties. There is, indeed, a determination to overcome problems, and a tendency to play them down. The keenness to go to work in order to help Mum out with the money at home; the feeling that, at the school-leaving age, the time is past when having a teacher standing over you all the time, watching you can be tolerated; and above all the desire to put aside the status of school-child in favor of that of worker- all these factors help children to get over the obstacles, uncertainties and even disappointments that they encounter when they start work.
But it cannot be inferred from the apparent ease of the transition that all is well. On the contrary, we have seen that most children are ill-prepared for employment so far as they know a little about what to expect when they start work. Even children who are supposedly keen on a particular occupation often know little about it, and take no steps to find out. In the Sheffield study, although a number of boys and girls have given a great deal of thought to their future work, only just over one-third had a reasonable sound knowledge, defined generously, of the tasks which would be involved in the jobs of their choice. This is to be expected, of course, in view of the unsatisfactory nature of the guidance given at home and in the school. “I don’t know what I’ll do,” boys say. “I have no idea.” “I’ll just go along and see what happens.” But whilst some are sanguine, others, as the time to start gets nearer, begin to worry, and build up all sorts of fearsome prospects in their minds- a chill strikes them as they wonder whether they will be able to do the work. What will happen if they cannot do it straight away? Will they be sacked on the spot? And how do they set about starting, even where do they go, who do they report to? I’ve got myself really worked up about it- I got so worried that I nearly didn’t go along at all, but my mother made me. I know I was silly now- for the Supervisor was ever so friendly. But all the time I felt horrible.
