The urban p there wil be nearly 30 “megacities” ‘in thes wit human geography Ben Rhodes describes * Life in cities will be very diferent from how itis today. Energy, especialy ol, will be very expensive so many people will probably work at home, or have their workplaces close to where they live. There'll be less traffic on the roads, and ill he easier for people to be close to their families. Fr these reasons cities wor't have just one centre where everyone goes to work and shop, Instead, well probabiy see cites with mary different centres. * Te will be difficult to provide enough water, gas and electricity for really big cities, so these wil prabably stop arewing. Many people from the countryside will move to smaller cities of $00,000 people or less. Transport overlong distances will be alot more ‘expensive than it is new, so people wil have to use food and energy fom the countryside around their cities. 3 Read the rest of the article.

This might lead to serious politcal problems, As we all know, cities near the sea will probably experience some extra problems. As temperatures around the world go up, sea levels will ise and many places will hhave problems with flooding.

To others, he was a genius, a man who dreamed of safe ‘and comiortable cies for everyore, rich or poor. His fname was Le Corbusier and his buildings can be seen in Europe, North and South America and Asia, “Le Corbusier saw concrete and tower blocks as a way Of providing inexpensive, quiet and spacious homes for everyone. He thought tower blocks should have thelr own indoor ‘streets’ with shoos, cafés, schools and sports Centres, and be clase to historic city centres, © Le Corbusier used these ideas in one of his most famous designs, the ‘welve-storey Unité habitation in Marseite, built in 1952, Today, the tower block is home $5 1,600 people.

It has 46 areas, each with its own apartment blocks, shops and services. One resident, Ranjt Sehgal, says, “Chandigarh was for ‘many a dream in the desert, a new begining. Peoale are: terribly proud of being fram Chandigarh,” S However, there is another side to the story. Other architects tred to use Le Corbusiers ideas, but thes tower blocks were sometimes very ctferent. They were cheaply built with smal, dark apartments and paper thin wals. They were buit far from city certres, with na indoor shops or streets. Some writers on urbanisation believe tower blocks like these create social problems like crime and violence, and they blame Le Corbusier io the problems of modern city ie, {Laurent Bouvier, an expert on the architec, disagree: “With more than half the world's popueation now lv in cities," he says, ‘it’s time to laok at Le Corbusi Work again.

Wihat exactly does the ttl of your book, Yokozuna, mean? Will, yokozuna isthe very highest rank in sumo. If you're a yokozun, you're atop champion, Sometimes, there are no yokozuna, and at other times there have been three or four at the same time, The name comes {rom the rope ~callad a tsuna ~ that the yokozuna wears. The rope can Weigh up to 20 kilos but it's not used during matches, I's anly worn before ‘matches, during a special ceremony. | see. Now, | always thought sumo Wrestlers had to be Japanese, but that's not tug, is it? Thats right. Traditionally, sumo is very much a Japanese sport and, for foreigners, was very difficult to become a yokozuna, But in 1993, ‘Akebono Taro was the frst foreigner to become a yokozuna in 1800 years, He was the frst non-Japanese to reach the highest rank. 0s that why he's such an important person in suma? Yes, because, erm, before Akebono, nobody believed that foreigners could become yokozuna So, where's he from? Well, he was born in Hawai His real ‘names Chad Haahe Rowan, He changed his name when he went to Japan. Now, there seem to be a number of Hawaiians who are goad at sumo, Winy is that? Well, some Havalians make excellent ‘sumo wresilers because they are big ‘and heavy, They can put on weight uite easily. Konishiki, for example, was another successful Hawaiian wrestler, though he never became a yokozuna, The two men actually fought each other in March 1991. It was the first sumo match between two non-Japanese wrestlers and Akebono deteated Konishik Oh, So, what was special about Akebono? Wel, he was an unusual success stony AS 3 young man, he enjoyed playing basketball and he won 3 baskelball scholarship, He also ‘wanted to study hotel management, but then he became interested in ‘sume from watching it on TV. A family friend introduced him to Azumazeki Oyakata, who was also fram Hawai Azumazek had his own group of sumo wrestlers, which we calla stable. So in 1988, Rowan flew to Japan to join Azumazek’s stable, There, Ne wos siven his professional name, Akebono, Which means new devin And he was extremely successful in his career, wasn't he? Yes that's right. His frst professional ‘ppearance was in March 1988 and clring his thirteen years of sumo ‘wrestling, hewon the Emperor's Cup 2 total of eleven times. He retired in 2001 That's fascinating. Thank you very much forgiving us an insight into this extraordinary spor. = He was born in Hawai He won a basketball scholarship, He wanted t study hotel management He became interested in sumo from watching it on TV 5 He flew to Japan to join Azumazeki's stable. & Akebono defeated Konishi 7 He was the frst foreigner to become 8 yokozuna in 1500 years. 8, He retired in 2001 =: agree Finish become practise decide retire defeat study enjoy suggest = decide > decided practise > practises ‘buy > buying speak > spoken = ENaTA_ | think one ofthe most important people in Polish history, | mean recent history, is Lech Watesa reRwEweR Right. who was the first president of Poland after communism.
