Carlos Alberto: Brazil soccer hero of 1970 World
Cup dies at age 72
(CNN) Carlos Alberto, the man who captained the
Brazil team often described as soccer's greatest ever
to victory at the 1970 World Cup, died Tuesday at
age 72. FIFA, world football's governing body,
confirmed his death on its website. A short statement
said: "It is with tremendous sadness that FIFA has
learned that Carlos Alberto Torres died at the age of
72 on Tuesday 25 October 2016." Alberto scored one
of the most memorable goals in World Cup history in
the final as his side beat Italy 4-1 in Mexico City. He
rampaged forward from right-back to put the seal on
victory, hammering home the most emphatic of
finishes after a stunning move involving eight players
including Tostao and Pele, who rolled the ball to him.
Then aged 25, Alberto became the youngest-ever
World Cup-winning captain having already skippered
Santos, his club at the time. He had been appointed
two years before the tournament and in an interview
with FIFA recalled: "I was elevated to the captaincy of
a team regarded at the time as the best in Brazil, and
by many as the best in the world. "It included world
champions like Pele, Coutinho, Pepe, Gilmar and
Mauro. "There's no doubt that being the Santos
skipper led to me getting the Selecao armband. I'm very proud still to be the youngest captain of a World
Cup-winning team."
Dazzling performance
Alberto won 53 caps for Brazil, scoring eight goals,
but it is for his dazzling 1970 performance that he is
best remembered. He was the last captain to lift the
Jules Rimet trophy, which passed into Brazil's
possession after what was their third World Cup win.
He missed the 1974 tournament with a knee injury
but played for Brazil for a further three years before
quitting international football in 1977. Alberto's
achievements saw him named in the World Team of
the 20th Century in 1998, while FIFA included him on
its list of the greatest 100 living players in 2004.
"Carlos Alberto is an icon of world football," Brazilian
sports journalist Emerson Vicente told CNN. "Besides
being a great technical player, he was one of the first
defensive players to play in attack with the same
efficiency. The fourth goal for Brazil in the 1970 final
shows that. Read: Carlos Alberto on the decline of
Brazilian football "His was a well-respected voice,
and as a commentator he was a critic of the current
state of Brazilian football." Santos will hold three days
of official mourning for Alberto, saying in a statement:
"Santos FC is saddened by the death of Carlos
Alberto, an idol."
Outstanding defender
Alberto started his club career with Fluminese,
establishing himself as an outstanding defender
whose superb tackling, ability to break forward and
instinctive reading of the game quickly attracted
acclaim. In 1966 he joined Pele at Santos, moving
briefly to Botafogo in 1971 but returning to Santos
later that year and staying until 1974. He rejoined
Fluminese the same year at the end of a domestic
career in which he was a Brazilian Championship
winner in both 1965 and 1968. He was to be reunited
with Pele again in 1977 when both starred for New
York Cosmos, becoming a title-winner in 1997 and
1978 before spending a year at California Surf in
1981 and then rejoining Cosmos, where he retired as
a player in 1982. In a tweet, the Cosmos said: "We're
deeply saddened by the loss of Carlos Alberto, a
legendary player and wonderful person. He'll always
remain part of the Cosmos family." Alberto coached
clubs including Flamengo and Corinthians after
calling time on his playing days and also coached in
international football, most recently with Azerbaijan.

TEXT I
Teen gives voice to Brazilian student protest
movement
(CNN) A soft-spoken teenage girl has become the
voice of a frustrated generation of Brazilian high
school students after a video of her speaking to
legislators in her home state of Parana became a
viral sensation. Sixteen-year-old Ana Julia Ribeiro
turned into a household name overnight after
testifying before the legislative assembly in Curitiba
and defending the student-led movement that has
occupied hundreds of state schools since October
14. She has also drawn comparisons to Malala
Yousafzai, the Pakistani activist and youngest
recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize who fought for equal access to education for girls in Talibancontrolled regions. "To whom do these schools
belong?" Ribeiro asked, with a slight tremble in her
voice, at the beginning of her 10-minute speech.
"This is our country, it will be the country of my
children and the children of my children and I am
concerned about the future." The students are
protesting a provisional measure that would change
the high school curriculum in public schools
throughout the country. It would make classes like art
and physical education optional and increase class
time. The students also are against a proposed
constitutional amendment, known as PEC 241,
drafted by President Michel Temer, that would cap
government spending for 20 years to reduce budget
deficits and pay the country's debt. "We can't just sit
back with our arms crossed," Ribeiro said. "We know
that we need a reform in high school education and
the educational system as a whole, but we need a
reform that has been debated and discussed and
promoted by education professionals." In Parana,
850 of the state's 2,100 public schools were seized
by the student movements this month. Lawmakers
accused the students of being influenced by leftist
leaders who opposed the Temer government, which
took office after former President Dilma Rousseff was
impeached in August. "This isn't a game for us, we
know what we are fighting for. Our flag is education,
our only flag is education," Ribeiro said. "We are a
nonpartisan movement. We are a student movement
for the students." Her speech drew a loud roar of
applause from sympathizers in the assembly
audience and a scolding from its president, who
threatened to suspend the session, when she
accused lawmakers of "having blood on their hands"
after the death of fellow student Lucas Mota in one of
the occupied schools. "I went to Lucas' funeral
yesterday and I don't remember seeing any of the
faces there that I am seeing today. Not one," Ribeiro
said. "Lucas' blood is on your hands. You represent
the state." While the Mota incident was isolated and
unrelated to the protest movement, Ribeiro took
advantage of her time at the lectern to challenge the
representatives as they chastised her for her
"insults." "I apologize, but the Statute of the Child and
Adolescent says that society, the family and the state
are the ones responsible for the well-being of this
country's youth and for its students." According to the
Ministry of Education, 315 schools are still occupied
by the student movements. Ribeiro traveled to
Brasilia earlier this week and participated in a debate
on the disputed constitutional amendment at a senate
human rights commission meeting. The amendment,
which was approved by the lower house, will be debated on the senate floor this month and is
expected to be called to a vote on November 29.

Nice to meet you
One of the things you learn when studying English is how to present yourself and most people learn phrases such as “How do you do?” or “Hi, my name is…”. However, one thing that language teachers don’t explain is that British people very rarely use these expressions. British people are not very good at introductions in informal situations. They are not sure what to say or what do with their hands. Whereas Brazilians or Americans will confidently extend their hands to people they meet at parties or social situations, English people prefer just to smile.
Expressions like “Hello, I’m John Smith”, “Hi, my name is…” are only used when we have to identify ourselves; for example when we go to an appointment at the dentist’s or the hairdresser’s, or if we’re telephoning someone to ask for information about ourselves.
Dialogues in school books where English teenagers present themselves to each other on the first day of school are pure fantasy. In informal social situations, British people prefer to stay chatting about something neutral like the weather, or else they use humour to break the ice. When the conversation has progressed, or even just before leaving, you can say, “I’m Ann, by the way.”, or “I didn’t catch your name”. If you meet the person again you can say, “Hello again” or, more colloquially, “Hi ya”, which stands for “Hello, nice to see you again”.
In the case of formal meetings or business situations, many language courses teach the expression “How do you do?” – to which you should answer “How do you do?”. This phrase is also recommended by the website ediplomat.com and Drett’, the famous specialist publisher that has a range of guides on British etiquette. I have said “How do you do” in my entire life and no one has never said that to me! In today’s Britain this expression is best reserved for extremely formal situations. It is, however, something that people over 60 might say, so if your elderly boss or professor uses this expression with you, then it’s polite to answer in the same way
In the sentence:
‘Whereas Brazilians or Americans will confidently extend their hands to people they meet at parties or social situations, English people prefer just to smile.’
The underlined word has its correct meaning in which alternative?

TEXT
Reality television is a genre of
television programming which, it is claimed,
presents unscripted dramatic or humorous
situations, documents actual events, and
features ordinary people rather than
professional actors. It could be described as a
form of artificial or "heightened"
documentary. Although the genre has existed
in some form or another since the early years
of television, the current explosion of
popularity dates from around 2000.
Reality television covers a wide range
of television programming formats, from game
or quiz shows which resemble the frantic, often
demeaning programmes produced in Japan in
the 1980s and 1990s (a modern example is
Gaki no tsukai), to surveillance- or voyeurismfocused productions such as Big Brother.
Critics say that the term "reality
television" is somewhat of a misnomer and that
such shows frequently portray a modified and
highly influenced form of reality, with
participants put in exotic locations or abnormal
situations, sometimes coached to act in certain
ways by off-screen handlers, and with events
on screen manipulated through editing and
other post-production techniques.
Part of reality television's appeal is due
to its ability to place ordinary people in
extraordinary situations. For example, on the
ABC show, The Bachelor, an eligible male
dates a dozen women simultaneously,
travelling on extraordinary dates to scenic
locales. Reality television also has the potential
to turn its participants into national celebrities,
outwardly in talent and performance programs
such as Pop Idol, though frequently Survivor
and Big Brother participants also reach some
degree of celebrity.
Some commentators have said that the
name "reality television" is an inaccurate description for several styles of program
included in the genre. In competition-based
programs such as Big Brother and Survivor,
and other special-living-environment shows
like The Real World, the producers design the
format of the show and control the day-to-day
activities and the environment, creating a
completely fabricated world in which the
competition plays out. Producers specifically
select the participants, and use carefully
designed scenarios, challenges, events, and
settings to encourage particular behaviours and
conflicts. Mark Burnett, creator of Survivor
and other reality shows, has agreed with this
assessment, and avoids the word "reality" to
describe his shows; he has said, "I tell good
stories. It really is not reality TV. It really is
unscripted drama."
What does the word “surveillance” refer
to in the second paragraph?
