2. The Declaration of Independence: One of the most important historical documents of the U.S. written by Thomas Jefferson and adopted by the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776. It declared formally the independence of the thirteen colonies in North America from Great Britain.

Trying to make some money before entering university, the author applies for a teaching  job. But the interview goes from bad
My First Job
Robert Best
[1]While I was waiting to enter university, I saw advertid in a local newspaper a teaching p ost at a school in a suburb of London about ten miles from where I lived. Being very short money and wanting to do something uful, I applied, fearing as I did so, that without a degree and with no experience in teaching my chances of getting the job were slim.
[2]However, three days later a letter arrived, asking me to go to Croydon for an interview.
It proved an awkward journey: a train to Croydon station; a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of at least a quarter of a mile. As a result I arrived on a hot June morning too depresd

to feel nervous.
[3]The school was a red brick hou with big windows.The front garden was a gravel  square; four evergreen shrubs stood at each corner, where they struggled to survive the dust and fumes from a busy main road.
[4]It was clearly the headmaster himlf that opened the door. He was short and fat. He had
a sandy-coloured moustache, a wrinkled forehead and hardly any hair.

[5]He looked at me with an air of surprid disapproval, as a colonel might look at a  private who bootlaces were undone. ‘Ah yes,’ he grunted. ‘You’d better come inside.’ The  narrow, sunless hall smelled unpleasantly of stale cabbage; the walls were dirty with ink marks; it was all silent. His study, judging by the crumbs on the carpet, was also his dining-room.
‘You’d better sit down,’ he said, and proceeded to ask me a number of questions: what subjects I had taken in my General School Certificate; how old I was; what games I played; then fixing
me suddenly with his bloodshot eyes, he asked me whether I thought games were a vital part of a boy’s education. I mumbled something about not attaching too much importance to them. He gr unted. I had said the wrong thing. The headmaster and I obviously had very little in common.
[6]The school, he said, consisted of one class of twenty-four boys, ranging in age from  ven to thirteen. I should have to teach all subjects except art, which he taught himlf.  Football and cricket were played in the Park, a mile away on Wednesday and Saturday  afternoons.
[7]The teaching t-up filled me with fear. I should have to divide the class into three  groups and teach them in turn at three different levels; and I was dismayed at the thought of  teaching algebra and geometry--two subjects at which I had been completely incompetent at  school. Wor perhaps
was the idea of Saturday afternoon cricket; most of my friends would be e njoying leisure at that time.
[8]I said shyly, ‘What would my salary be?’‘Twelve pounds a week plus lun ch.’ Before I  could protest, he got to his feet. ‘Now’, he said, ‘you’d better meet my wife. She’s the one who  really runs this school.’
[9]This was the last straw. I was very young: the prospect of working under a woman  constituted the ultimate indignity.

3.Did the author accept the job offered by the headmaster? Give evidence from the text to
