Kick-off
Alexander is 14 years old and is interested in two jobs. He’d like to be a pilot. What else do you think he would like to be? Write down three possibilities.
Lindis: Erm, what would like to do as a job when you’re grown up?
Alexander: I’d rather be … I’d like to be an actor or a pilot.
Lindis: Tell me why.
Alexander: Well, for actor, it’s that I love acting and I’m a drama queen! And erm … when I was younger I’ve always … erm … had, I’ve always loved flying and I’ve always er loved planes and everything so … erm … and I love it how – I love … erm … I have loads of flight games at home and I really enjoy it, so I’d like to be a pilot so I can do it in real life as well.
Lindis: You said flight games. How does that work – is that on the pc or what?
Alexander: Yeah, on my pc is where I erm – They give you all the controls in a cockpit. And then you erm, you literally have to press one button. You have to press all the buttons that you usually have to do in a cockpit to land a plane. You actually have to do it in game instead of in real life. So, it’s sort of like a … erm … Oh, what’s the word? It’s sort of like a … erm reenactment of real life.
Lindis: So does it –, is it like a flight simulator?
Alexander: Yeah, that’s the word, simulator.
