Work and jobs are the themes of this unit as they lend themselves to the use and practice of the grammatical aim, which is the introduction to the third person singular in Present Simple. The skills work includes a reading text about a man who lives on a remote Scottish island and has thirteen jobs! This was chosen to compliment both the themes and the grammar of the unit. The text also acts as a preview of other forms of Present Simple in context.
