11、 already seemed to be in business for himself, looking for the best deal, which meant the least teaching for the most money at the most snobbishly well- regarded schools. The spirit of capitalism, for ail that might be said on its behalf, wreaks havoc when applied to culture and education. The Engli
12、sh novelist David Lodge neatly caught this spirit at work when he created, in two of his academic novels, the character Morris Zapp. A scholar-operator, Zapp, as described by Lodge, “is well-primed to enter a profession as steeped in free enterprise as Wall Street, in which each scholar-teacher make

18、. Today, we are going to talk about an interesting topic, that is, should you live with parents or leave home after graduation from school?A person s home reflects his character just as clearly as the clothes he wears, the food he eats and the friends with whom he spends his time. Most people have i
19、n their minds a picture of their “ideal home“; but in general, and particularly for students or for people just beginning work, there are practical limitations of money and location which may prevent them from finding this ideal home.Not having enough moneys in fact, often means that the only way of
20、 getting along when you leave school is to stay at home for a while until things improve financially. There are many advantages to staying at home your clothes are usually washed for you, your meals are cooked and you already have your circle of friends around you. Parents are often very generous in
21、 asking for only a little help with paying the rent, and you do not usually have to pay the bills for electricity, etc.On the other hand, a lot depends on how you get on with your family. Do your parents like your friends? Are you prepared to be patient when your parents ask you where you are going
22、in the evening and what time you expect to be back? Do they mind if you throw a party at home? If you decide that you would rather leave home and that you finally have enough money for a place of your own, how can you find somewhere else to live?If you plan to stay in your home area, you probably kn
23、ow the possibilities already. Friends and the local newspapers are always a good source of information. If you are going to work in a new area, again there are the newspapers; and there are also accommodation agencies. There are offices which have a list of houses and flats which you can rent one to
24、 talk to, and your room will often be very comfortable. However, you may find that digs have the same disadvantages of living at home: you cannot invite your friends to visit you freely and if you do not get on with your landlady your life can be rather unhappy. However, this can be an expensive way
25、 of finding a flat because you usually have to pay the agency the same mount as a week s rent for the flat they show you.For students, many colleges and universities have accommodation officers, whose job is to help you find some- where to live. Of course you can often live on campus but many studen
26、ts would rather find their own accommodation in the town. However, in some areas this is difficult because there is a large student population and many house-owners are not happy about renting rooms to students. But what sort of accommodation is available?If you like the idea of living with a family
27、 then digs might be the answer. Living in digs means having one room in someone s house. Your landlord or usually your land-lady cooks your meals and may wash your clothes if you are lucky. You always have some one to talk to, and your room will often be very comfortable. However, you may find that
28、digs have the same disadvantages as living at home: you can not invite your friends to visit you freely, and if you do not get on with your landlady your life can be rather unhappy.Sharing a flat with some other students may seem a better answer. This can be very cheap there are no old people watchi
29、ng over you and telling you what to do, and the housework cane in theory be shared with your flatmates. However there may be problems if your characters are different. One person may spend hours on the telephone or taking hot, deep baths, while another never telephones anyone and likes cold showers.
30、 Then who pays the bills in this case? One of your flatmates may like playing music very loudly perhaps while you are trying to study. And can you ask the other to go out if you want to see a friend alone?If you think that having other people around all the time will not be pleasant-perhaps you shou
31、ld try a bedsitter (one room which you use as a bedroom and sitting room combined). A bedsitter is nots very expensive; it is easy to keep clean and cheap, to heat since it is only one room; and, by putting up pictures on the walls and perhaps buying some furniture of your owns you can make it feel
32、like a real home. The disadvantages are that you have to cook in the rooms so it may be always full of food smells; you may have to have your wet clothes hanging all round the room to dry; and it can be very lonely at first if you have moved to a new area.If all this makes you think that it would be

35、aru About leadership and teambuilding in arts and cultureReporter: Welcome Nick, our audience must be eager to know your ideas about leadership and teambuilding in arts and culture.Nick: Thanks. I think everybody who Wants to pursue a successful career, specially in the arts, have to consider himsel
36、f/herself a world citizen from the beginning. I think one of the most dangerous notions in the contemporary society is the provincialism. I was trying always to keep my Romanian roots but I felt always the nee. d to connect myself to what s happen in the world. I can understand the fears of loosing
37、the identity but due to the development of the technology and information it is practically impossible to ignore some of the advantages of the scary globalization.Reporter: But now, because we got together again here, in this amazing and -I might say- unbelievable country as USA, let s talk a little
38、 about your experience here, first. Then, because I know that you are teacher and a set designer in the same time, maybe you can tell me how can you handle this.Nick: I had a cultural choke in my first six months in the USA It is hard to accept that the American administration doesnt subsidize the a
39、rts as the majority of the European governments do, specially because the USA is the most developed country in the world. It is amazing to see an artist as Robert Wilson doing his experimental projects in Europe, with European money, with budgets one cannot dream to have here in the USA outside of e
40、ntertainment industry, and coming to present these performances in the USA. Speaking about evil, it is still hard for me to associate the concept of industry with the concept of arts, like the film industry or entertainment industry, i was wondering always if directors like Fellini or Bergman would
41、exist or survive as artists in the American film industry, and how their films will look like. Thanks God, the American art survive based on the private sponsorship and on the artists ambitions and frustrations.Reporter: Is your career as a teacher helping the artistic side?Nick: To be honest it was
42、 more easy to handle this in Europe. My career as a teacher is occupying almost all my time over the academic year. It is frustrating to refuse some of the project proposals just because I don t have the physical time to do it.But this was always a major problem for me. I think I need more lives to
43、do what I want or at least days of 36-48 hours. I like teaching because I have the feeling that keeps me young.Working with young artists is as wonderful and painful as the love is. I hate teaching in an environment where there are more concerns about the politics, political correctness, power, etc.
44、 than education.Reporter: Do you feel that your students are going to become your followers? What is your teaching technique, basically? Is it just listen to me, and do that or (the one that Ive get myself from you) the far more difficult lets see what you have to say about the issue?Nick: My philos
45、ophy of teaching is that the students must be the followers of their own talents, not mine. All I try to do is to develop their own personality, to make them open and confident in their powers. In my opinion a teacher must be first of all, honest with his / her students. One cannot do education by p
46、leasing always your students in order to have good evaluations for your tenure.?Reporter: What about the teamwork both in classes and at the theatre- is something different from other countries, in term of relationship between the members?Nick: The teamwork is crucial in the theatre. One cannot do t
47、heatre without collaboration and discipline. What about actors coming late to the performances they are involved in? What about not having the costumes or sets in time? Every aspect of the theatre production is as important as the entire production. We can easily transgress this to a teamwork. Actually I will suggest theatre classes / notions to any business sc
