Part 2

Read the article below on the Life Story of David Beckham and answer questions 11–25.

THE LIFE STORY OF DAVID BECKHAM

David Beckham is one of Britain’s most iconic sports personalities, whose name is also an
elite global advertising brand. He has been a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF since 2005
and has also been involved in promoting the 2012 Olympic Games which will be held in
London. He was captain of the English national football team from 2000 to 2006, has scored
in three World Cup tournaments and has played for clubs in Manchester, Madrid and Los
Angeles.

He was born David Robert Joseph Beckham on 2nd May 1975 in London, the son of a
kitchen fitter and a hairdresser. Beckham’s maternal grandfather was Jewish and David has
mentioned that the religion has had an effect on him. However, although he wears a tattoo
written in Hebrew he is not known to practise Judaism or any other faith. Beckham usually
plays in long sleeved shirts to cover up his tattoos in consideration of others who may feel
uncomfortable due to their beliefs.

In primary school he always said that he wanted to be a professional footballer. At the age
of 11, he attended a football school in Manchester, but then moved back to London to join
Tottenham Hotspur as a junior player. He returned to Manchester and became a professional
player with Manchester United in 1991.

David made his debut for the Manchester United first team in September 1992. By the time
he left to play for Real Madrid in July 2003, he had made almost 400 appearances and scored
85 goals. In the 1998 World Cup he played in all of England’s matches. However, he was
dismissed during the second-round match against Argentina for violent conduct, although
the opponent that Beckham had kicked later admitted to trying to get Beckham sent off.
After losing the game, England were knocked out from the World Cup competition and
Beckham was blamed by newspaper and TV reporters.

David Beckham has been a major attraction wherever he has played. On the field he has
consistently demonstrated his ability to play football at the highest level. He has become well
known for being able to pass the ball with tremendous accuracy and to score from direct free
kicks. These skills have come from his drive and ambition to be the best. The Manchester
United Manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, once praised Beckham by saying that he practised with
great discipline and achieved a level of perfection that other players only dream about.
 Leave

He married Victoria Adams, a singer (nicknamed Posh Spice) from the pop group the Spice
Girls in July 1999. Later that year, Beckham was given permission to miss a team training
session in order to look after their son, Brooklyn, who was suffering from a stomach
infection. However, Manchester United’s manager fined Beckham £50,000 for babysitting
their sick child because Victoria was seen at a London Fashion Week event on the same day.
Ferguson claimed that Beckham would have been able to train if his wife had stayed at home
that day. Beckham’s growing celebrity status caused serious tension between the two men
and that issue would eventually see Beckham leave Manchester United to join Real Madrid
in July 2003. By then he had won the Premier League title 6 times, the F.A. Cup* twice and
the Champions League once. In June 2007, having won the Spanish League title and the
Spanish Cup, Beckham played his final game for Real Madrid and signed a 5-year contract
to play for Los Angeles Galaxy. By this time, he and Victoria had had two further children,
Romeo and Cruz. They named Cruz after their friend, Hollywood actor, Tom Cruise.

David is regarded as one of the most stylish men in the world. Whether he is wearing a
sarong or a leather jacket, he is never less than impeccably dressed. David’s hair has also
been the subject of as much comment as his footballing abilities. He may have a shaved head
or a mohawk, but his hair has always attracted attention and inspired millions of men to try
new and often outrageous styles. Victoria is equally stylish and has recently launched the
DVB fashion label. Her every move, outfit and hairstyle are photographed and analysed in
thousands of magazines, newspapers and TV fashion shows. From this it is clear that from
football stadiums to the high streets of almost every town and city, the Beckhams lead the
way in fashion and style, and have a huge influence on people around the world.

 Part 3
The world is changing for Eskimos
The Inuit, or Eskimos as they are better known, are a people who can be found in one of
four countries that surround the North Pole: Greenland, Canada, the United States and
Russia.
Historically, they were successful hunters in the truest sense. Admirably, for hundreds of
years they survived in the world’s harshest conditions, living off the land and sea. This has
always been their way of life, one that is now changing. The Inuit were mostly isolated
until recently. Now they are adapting but their lives are affected by a world that is placing
limits on how much they can hunt and a changing climate that is impacting on their
environment. There is an element of uncertainty about the future of their culture.
The Inuit originally migrated from Siberia to Alaska, through North America and
finally arrived on the shores of Greenland in the 13th century. They were sophisticated
navigators, using stars to guide their way. Because Greenland is covered with a sheet of
ice, the Inuit settled around the coastal areas so they could hunt and fish. Surviving such
conditions required a strong sense of family and community.
Until about 50 years ago, these people lived completely off the land and sea. Today, the
economy has shifted and Greenland is not primarily a hunting society. Most Inuit have
switched to modern work roles to earn money for electricity and other home comforts.
However, the hunting culture, skills and diet are still very much a part of their lives and
their identity.
The Inuit continue to eat their traditional diet. In making their clothing and boots, some
Inuit avoid modern-day materials and continue to use animal fur, just as they have always
done. Some of the men still excel at time-honoured hunting skills and kayaking. This
world of hunting for the Inuit is an important part of their community structure, their
identity, even their DNA. For instance, they consume a high protein, high fat diet. It has
been shown they metabolise fats with greater efficiency than Europeans do.
However, the Inuit’s ancient culture has recently come under pressure. Limits are being
set on the hunting of many of the species that were at one time essential and available
to this hunting culture. For the small groups who still hunt, the claim is that these
new quotas will make their lives more difficult. Though well intentioned, the wishes of
environmental groups coming from the outside world conflict directly with ancient Inuit
values. This is truly a clash of cultures that may threaten the way of life of these people.
For centuries, the Inuit have lived in the roughest environments. For them, hunting has
been their means of providing food. When they need to eat, they go to the sea for their
food. They know the weather patterns that allow them to travel safely on the sea ice for
their hunting expeditions. However, in line with similar research, a major study on the
effects of Arctic warming, reports that temperatures have increased over the last 50 years
and may rise again. This change is having an impact on the wildlife and the environment
of the Arctic.
Throughout Greenland, Inuit hunters say the weather is becoming increasingly
unpredictable. They report that the land and sea ice are changing. What was once
familiar territory has become unstable, making navigating and travel dangerous. Glaciers
are melting more in summer than previously and the routes to traditional hunting spots
have become more hazardous. They are now hunting in other places rather than on the
sea ice, as it is safer and more productive with the changing environment.
As hunting has become more difficult for the traditional Inuit, a larger number of family
members are working in contemporary roles to help their family’s economy. Women are
taking salaried jobs to earn money for store-bought products. This allows some of the
men to continue in their traditional role as hunters. However, one side-effect is that the
women are starting to lose their knowledge of Inuit skills.
The good news is that there is increasing awareness of the rights of people like the Inuit
to preserve their centuries-old way of life. There are an increasing number of supporters
speaking out for the continued culture of this long-surviving people.
Environment programmes have called for increased environmental monitoring in the
Arctic regions. It seems that what is happening in the Arctic is the front line for what will
occur in the rest of the world. Ultimately, it is being acknowledged that awareness of the
Inuit culture and their environment will not only benefit their survival, it will in the long
run help us all.

 Part 5
Taking a gap year
The phrase ‘gap year’ has traditionally meant a period of time taken out by students after
leaving school or college and before starting university. However, gap years can be taken
at any stage. They can be taken by anyone, and for varying amounts of time. You can
fly off to sunnier climates and experience different cultures or stay closer to home and
sample what your own country has to offer.
Can I take a gap year during university?
Taking a gap year in the middle of your time at university is not generally recommended
and needs serious consideration, as planning your trip can distract you from your
university routine. Students then often find it difficult to return to their studies once their
break is over and lose the momentum for studying. This is made more complicated by
the fact that your peer group will have moved on. Being surrounded by new people can
make settling back in much tougher and you may even lose enthusiasm for the course
altogether.
Unless you have a good reason for taking time out from your course to do a gap year,
employers may see this time away as a lack of commitment. You need to think how you
will explain this, detailing how what you learned helped you successfully complete the
course when you returned. Deciding to have a break from studying, simply to see more
of the world is not a good idea.
Rather than having a full year off, you could possibly take a ‘mini gap year’: use the
summer holidays to travel, volunteer or work abroad. You will not miss any of your
course, and you will have the same opportunity to acquire the skills that complement
your degree. It may also show employers that you have developed good time-
management skills, organising your trip alongside a full-time degree.
Will taking a gap year affect my career?
Employers will typically look at hundreds of applications, so a worthwhile gap year is one
way to make yours stand out. At the interview stage, you can draw on your experience
and provide a number of interesting examples of what you did with your time.
You can use a gap year as an opportunity to develop key skills, gain experience in a
particular area, or try out different industries. By doing this, you will show that you are
taking your career seriously and what you have learned from doing this should certainly
be viewed as a positive.
However, if you do not plan, or actively take part in anything during your gap year,
regardless of when you take it, it is much harder to justify your trip to organisations
you’d like to work for. This could be viewed as an unexpected gap on your CV. To ensure
this doesn’t happen, create a plan detailing what you want to achieve by the end of it.
The current trend is definitely to do something productive and not just take a one-year
holiday.
