A FOOTBALL LEGEND
[1] Professional football player Lionel Messi
was born on June 24, 1987, in
Rosario,Argentina. He started football at
the age of 8, playing for the Newell's Old
Boys – a team in his native town.
[2] As a kid, Messi was smaller than most of
the boys he played with; he was suffering
from a hormone deficiency that restricted
his growth. Medication was costly and Messi's parents couldn't pay for it. At the age of 13,
Messi was offered an opportunity to play for Barcelona and have his medical bills paid by the
team. So, the whole family moved across the Atlantic to Spain.
[3] Messi was famous for being short and rapid with a fierce style of play. He was soon
compared to another well-known Argentinean footballer: Diego Maradona. Messi moved
quickly through the ranks of the team's junior system, and by the age of 16, he had made his
first appearance for Barcelona. He put himself in the record books on May 1, 2005, as the
youngest player to ever score a goal. That same year he led Argentina to the title in the under-
20 World Cup.
[4] In recent years Messi has become one of the highest paid football players, earning an
estimated $18 million a year. He has justified that he is worth that price by leading Barcelona
to a lot of success; the left-footer's team won the Champions League, La Liga, and Spanish
Club titles in 2009. That same year, he took home the FIFA World Player of the Year award.
[5] Even Maradona, the renowned
retired player, has praised Messi. "I
see him as very similar to me," he told
the BBC. "He's a leader and is offering
lessons in beautiful football. He has
something different from any other
player in the world."
[6] Messi became the first player to
score five goals in a Champions
League match in early March. By the
end of 2012, he had scored 91 goals in
club and international matches.
Therefore, he broke one more record.
In January 2013, Messi was named the FIFA Ballon d'Or winner for the fourth time!

A TALENTED HUMOURIST

[1] Born in Casablanca on April 19, 1971, Gad Elmaleh is


an actor and comedian of Moroccan-French nationality. He
speaks fluently both French and Moroccan Arabic as he was
raised in a household that gave him access to a mix of
cultural influences. He was educated in Morocco, first at the
Georges Bizet School and later at Lycée Lyautey in
Casablanca. In 1988, he moved to Montreal, Canada,
where he studied political sciences for a year. He also worked on radio and started writing
humorous stories which he performed in nightclubs. He soon discovered that he had a talent
for entertaining people. This launched him on a career which continues today.

[2] Gad Elmaleh has had roles in a number of films and has enjoyed success as a stand-up
comedian. His talents also include singing and voice-overs for animated films. His first cinema
role was in 1996 in “Salut Cousin!”, a film by Algerian screenwriter and director Merzak
Allouache. His first one-man show, “Décalages”, based on his own life, was performed at the
Palais des Glaces in 1997.

[3] Following the success of “Décalages”, Gad Elmaleh's second one-man show “La Vie
Normale” proved to be a huge success. In 2005, Elmaleh returned to the stage with a new
style in “L’autre c’est moi”, in which he interacted with the audience and improvised his
dialogue. In 2006, he was awarded the “Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres” by the French
Minister of Culture and was voted “The Funniest Person in France.”

[4] Gad Elmaleh performed in Montreal and Casablanca, before taking his shows to France,
Belgium and Switzerland in 2007. Elmaleh presented his latest production, “Papa est en Haut”
for the first time as part of the “Just for Laughs” festival in Montreal in July 2007,then In
December 2007, the show made history when all tickets were sold out at L’Olympia in Paris
for seven consecutive weeks.

[5] In 2009, Elmaleh wrote, produced and acted in the film “Coco” which was another great
success. It was based on one of his one-man show “La Vie Normale”. In 2011, the actor had
a role in Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris and appeared in the film The Adventures of Tintin.
No doubt, fans are looking forward to future shows by the Moroccan-born actor and comedian
Gad Elmaleh.

UNIT 3: EDUCATION READING Comprehesion inspiring women from morocco

Inspiring Women from Morocco


[1] Helping the community is one of the questions that many people keep asking themselves without
taking any form of action. However, two great Moroccan ladies have responded
in action and decided to dedicate part of their fortune to the empowerment of
education in the country.
[2] Fatna Lemdersi helped the community in her own way. When her husband
died, this woman from a large family in Figuig took over the management of
family properties and decided to help build a school 16 years ago.
[3] Rather than helping local associations as many other people do, Lemdersi decided to donate an amount
of nearly 6 million dirhams to finance the construction of a national school of business and management
(ENCG) in Oujda, the first of its kind in the east of Morocco. The school started with 100 students. Today,
1000 students join this institution each year. So far, it has seen the graduation of 10 groups. On the 10th
anniversary of the ENCG, and in recognition of the dedication of this incredible woman, Mohammed I
University of Oujda honored Fatna Lemdersi by naming the school’s amphitheater after her.
[4] Najiya Nadir, another Moroccan Business woman, volunteered to fund the construction of schools in
the region of Settat. She signed two partnership agreements with local
authorities in February 2019 after donating 12 million dirhams to build schools
in the region.
[5] Thanks to Nadir’s donations, a high school will be built in Oulad Fares, a
small rural area in Settat Province. Nadir said that the purpose behind her
initiative was to contribute to quality education in the country, especially in rural areas. “When schools are
15 or 20 kilometers from the children, they face a lot of challenges such as exposure to drug use or sexual
abuse, especially girls,” says Nadir.
