SLIDE 6: Reading: Read the article and answer the questions. IN CLASS

https://edition.cnn.com/2020/01/26/football/inaki-williams-racism-athletic-bilbao-spain-football-spt-intl/index.html

(CNN) Athletic Bilbao forward Inaki Williams said he was "sad" after suffering alleged racist abuse from a rival set of fans during a Spanish league match.

The Spanish international alleges the abuse came from the ultras set -- a hardcore section of fans -- of Espanyol supporters during the two sides' 1-1 La Liga draw in at the RCDE Stadium on Saturday.
Williams reported the abuse to his captain Iker Muniain who then informed the referee Jose Sanchez Martinez. The official however made no reference to the incident in his post-match report.
"I'm leaving a bit sad because of the draw, but above all else because I suffered racist insults," Williams told Athletic's media team after the match. "It's something that no black player or whatever race wants to hear.
"It's something that's totally out of order. People have to come to the stadium to have fun, to support their team, to enjoy football.
"It's a sport of friendship, of being a team. Honestly, it was a bit of a sad day because of what I said. These things shouldn't happen. They're totally out of order."
Williams is one of Athletic's best players and in August 2019, the 25-year-old was rewarded with a nine-year contract at the Basque club.
But it's not the first time Williams has been subjected to racist abuse.
In 2016, in the opening game of the season against Sporting Gijon, he was subjected to racist chanting from fans which led to the referee temporarily halting the game and Sporting having to close a section of their ground for one game.
"It's really sad that today we carry on living with these racist moments in football," Williams said on Twitter. "We have to stop it. Thank you for all your support. No to racism."
Espanyol said the club "condemns any sign of racism" and that it was investigating "incidents of a racist nature uttered by a few against Williams."
The game with Espanyol was the 140th consecutive league match Williams has featured in for his club -- a club record.
Espanyol's Raul de Thomas saved a point for the Catalan side, canceling out Athletic's goal through Asier Villalibre.

ESO3: Modals and scenarios for the future

What might life be like in the future?



READING: "We face an infinite number of futures". When I was your age we imagined a future with flying cars,  teletransportation, and the capacity to minimize objects and keep them in our pockets.

Well... we are still waiting for flying cars but actually, we have sort of seen the other possibilities come true: twenty years ago we had to send a letter, a picture or a film through the post and it would take a long time to get from Spain to, say... New Zealand.

Now, it's just a click away with the internet! Letters have turned into e-mails, photographs have gone digital and you don't need to have a physical tape to watch a film. Isn't it a kind of teletransportation?

Every two minutes, we take as many photos as all of humanity took during the 1800s.

Same with the minimization of objects... Have you got a smart phone? Well, look at the picture below and think about the changes we've had in just a couple of decades!

SPEAKING: Comment on the picture below and imagine how technology would be in 20 years time.

Everything in this 1991 RadioShack ad exists in a single smartphone.

Imagine you have a "time machine"
Un científico iraní dice haber creado una «máquina del tiempo»So... How do you imagine the future in 20 years? And in 2100? And beyond?

Let's stop in the mid-way and watch a video on what will life be like in 2015. Hyper innovation:

ESO4: The Future. Hopi prediction.

The Nine Signs of Hopi Prophecy (From White Feather, Bear Clan, Hopi Tribe)


The Fourth World shall end soon, and the Fifth World will begin. This the elders everywhere know. The Signs over many years have been fulfilled, and so few are left.

·         First Sign: We were told of the coming of the white-skinned men, like Pahana, but not living like Pahana -- men who took the land that was not theirs and who struck their enemies with thunder.

·         Second Sign: Our lands will see the coming of spinning wheels filled with voices.

·         Third Sign: A strange beast like a buffalo but with great long horns, will overrun the land in large numbers.

·         Fourth Sign: The land will be crossed by snakes of iron.

·         Fifth Sign: The land shall be criss-crossed by a giant spider's web.

·         Sixth Sign: The land shall be criss-crossed with rivers of stone that make pictures in the sun.

·         Seventh Sign: You will hear of the sea turning black, and many living things dying because of it.

·         Eighth Sign: You will see many youth, who wear their hair long like our people, come and join the tribal nations, to learn our ways and wisdom.

·         Ninth and Last Sign: You will hear of a dwelling-place in the heavens, above the earth, that shall fall with a great crash. It will appear as a blue star. Very soon after this, the ceremonies of the Hopi people will cease.

"These are the Signs that great destruction is coming. The world shall rock to and fro. The white man will battle against other people in other lands -- with those who possessed the first light of wisdom. There will be many columns of smoke and fire such as White Feather has seen the white man make in the deserts not far from here. Only those which come will cause disease and a great dying.

"Many of my people, understanding the prophecies, shall be safe. Those who stay and live in the places of my people also shall be safe. Then there will be much to rebuild. And soon -- very soon afterward -- Pahana will return. He shall bring with him the dawn of the Fifth World. He shall plant the seeds of his wisdom in their hearts. Even now the seeds are being planted. These shall smooth the way to the Emergence into the Fifth World.

"But White Feather shall not see it. I am old and dying. You -- perhaps will see it. In time, in time..."


1.       Each sign can correspond to one of the following, can you match them?
·         (Railroad tracks)
·         (Guns)
·         (Longhorn cattle)
·         (Oil spills)
·         (Covered wagons)
·         (Hippies)
·         (Concrete roads and their mirage-producing effects.)
·         (Power and telephone lines)


2. Can you imagine what the ninth sign refers to? Use the future for your own prediction.
