No other sporting event captures the world's imagination like the FIFA World Cup. Ever since the
first tentative competition in Uruguay in 1930, FIFA's flagship has constantly grown in popularity and
prestige.
A group of visionary French football administrators, led in the 1920s by the innovative Jules Rimet,
are credited with the original idea of bringing the world's strongest national football teams together to
compete for the title of World Champions. The original gold trophy bore Jules Rimet's name and was
contested three times in the 1930s, before the Second World War put a 12-year stop to the competition:
When it resumed, the FIFA World Cup rapidly advanced to its undisputed status as the greatest single
sporting event of the modern world. Held since 1958 alternately in Europe and the Americas, the World Cup
broke new ground with the Executive Committee's decision in May 1996 to select Korea and Japan as cohosts for the 2002 edition.
Today, the FIFA World Cup holds the entire global public under its spell. An accumulated audience
of over 37 billion people watched the France 98 tournament, including approximately 1.3 billion for the
final alone, while over 2.7 million people flocked to watch the 64 matches in the French stadia.
After all these years and so many changes, however, the main focus of the FIFA World Cup remains
the same the glistening golden trophy, which is the embodiment of every footballer's ambition.

Rainforests circle the globe for twenty degrees of latitude on both sides the equator. In that relatively
narrow band of the planet, more than half of all the species of plants and animals in the world make their
home. Sever hundred different varieties of trees may grow in a single acre, and just one of those trees may
be the habitat for more than ten thousands kinds of spiders ants, and other insects. More species of
amphibians, birds, insects, mammals and reptiles live in rainforests than anywhere else on earth.
Unfortunately, half of the world's rainforests have already been destroyed and at the current rate,
another 25 percent will be lost by the year 200. Scientists estimate that as many as fifty million acres are
destroyed annually. In other words, every sixty seconds, one hundred acres of rainforest is cleared. When
this happens, constant rains- erode the former forest floor, thin layer of soil no longer supports plant life,
and the ecology of the region is altered forever. Thousands of species of plants and animals are condemned
to extinction and since we aren't able to predict the ramifications of this loss o a delicate global ecology,
we don't know what we may be doing to the future the human species as well.

VI. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answers.
Probably the most famous film commenting on twentieth-century tech-neology is Modem Times,
made in 1936. Charlie Chaplin was motivated to make the film by a reporter who, while interviewing him,
happened to describe working conditions in industrial Detroit. Chaplin was told that health young farm boys
were lured to the city to work on automotive assembly lines. Within four or five years, these young men's
health was destroyed by the stress work in the factories.
The film opens with a shot of a mass of sheep making their way crowded ramp. Abruptly the scene
shifts to a scene of factory workers job thing one another on their way to a factory. However, the rather
bitter criticism in the implied comparison is not sustained. It is replaced by a gentler note of satire. Chaplin
prefers to entertain rather than Probably the most famous film commenting on twentieth-century technology
is Modern Times, made in 1936. lecture.
Scenes of factory interiors account for only one third of the footage of Modern Times, but they
contain some of the most pointed social commentary as well as the most comic situations. No one who has
seen the film can ever forget Chaplin vainly trying to keep pace with the fast-moving conveyor belt almost
losing his mind in the process. Another popular scene involves an automatic feeding machine brought to the
assembly line so that workers need not interrupt their labor to eat. The feeding machine malfunctions,
hurling food at Chaplin who is strapped into his position on the assembly line and can not escape. This
serves to illustrate people's utter helplessness in the face of machines that are meant to serve their basic
needs.
Clearly, Modern Times has its faults, but it remains the best film treating technology within a social
context. It does not offer a radical social message. but it does accurately reflect the sentiments of many who
feel they arc victims of an over-mechanized world.
