The Wind
James Stephens
The wind stood up, and gave a shout:
He whistled on his fingers, and
Kicked the withered leaves about,
And thumped the branches with his hand,
And said he'd kill, and kill, and kill:
And so he will! And so he will!
The words in “The Wind” that give human
qualities to the wind are:

FOOTBALL'S RED CARD
THE WORLD'S MOST VALUABLE SPORTS TEAM
IS drowning in debt. English football powerhouse
Manchester United (Forbes estimates its worth at
$1.8 billion) had to raise some $800 million in a
bond issue last month, which is still $340 million shy
of its total debts. Man U needed the bond to pay off
the millions that American businessman
Malcolm Glazer borrowed to purchase the team in
2005. But in the first three weeks since the bond
was issued it lost nearly 10 percent of its value, a
sign that, even though Man U's revenues reached a
record $444 million last year, the market is growing
wary of debt, particularly the European variety
Man U isn't alone. Debt levels have also skyrocketed
among rivals like liverpool, calling into question the
business model of English Premier League football.
Each year the three worst teams are banished to
a lower league, where vital broadcasting revenues
are dramatically reduced. This puts huge pressure
on clubs to compete for the best players, who now
regularly fetch more than $50 million a year. Unlike
in the U.S., there's no system of collective bargaining to restrain wages. As a result, the total salary
bill for the Premier League has risen more than 20
percent since 2008. This has created a vicious cycle
of rising debt among clubs that must spend extravagantly on players to ensure increased revenue. Any
team attempting to be frugal becomes more likely
to end up with lower revenue. It's become a game
of who can spend the most, and it probably won't
end well.

The cock is crowing,
TEXT A
Written in March
The cock is crowing,
The stream is flowing,
The small birds twitter,
The lake doth glitter,
The green field sleeps in the sun;
The oldest and youngest
Are at work with the strongest;
The cattle are grazing,
Their heads never raising;
There are forty feeding like one!
Like an army defeated
The snow hath retreated,
And now doth fare ill
On the top of the bare hill;
The ploughboy is whooping-anon-anon
There’s joy in the mountains;
There’s life in the fountains;
Small clouds are sailing,
Blue sky prevailing;
The rain is over and gone!
By: William Wordsworth
Vocabulary: Hath = has; doth = does; fare ill = to do badly;
ploughboy = a country boy; whooping = cry of joy; anon = soon

01 Take a dive with hundreds of tropical fish, colorful coral and the world's biggest fish, the
whale shark, at unspoilt Ningaloo Reef.
The reef on Western Australia's mid north coast, has gained an impressive reputation as
one of Earth's last ocean paradise.
05 It's one of the largest fringing reefs in the world and unlike many others; you can get to it
just by stepping off the beach.
The marine park stretches 260 kilometers from Bundegi Reef near the town of Exmouth to
Amherst Point near Coral Bay in the south.
It reaches nearly 20 kilometers seaward, encompassing a massive 5,000 square
10 kilometers of ocean with 500 species of tropical fish and 220 species of coral in all.
Nothing can compare to the thrill of swimming beside a whale shark. These docile
creatures visit the reef each year between April and June.
Rare turtle species hatch here in late January and February. Watch this amazing natural
phenomenon on special guided, eco-interactive trails.
15 Accommodation in the area is comfortable and ranges from camping and backpacker style
to chalets, motels, eco-retreats and self catering apartments.
It's not all about the water at Ningaloo - go four wheel driving to Cape Range National
Park to see amazing red rock canyons and gorges.
Getting there is easy - take a two hour flight north of Perth, or give yourself two days to
drive there from the capital.

01 There, in the pasture greenery,
Sun mottling Nature's breast,
It was the summer wind's song
That filled me with its crest.
05 Emotion running rampant--
Rivers to the sea--
I could not even fathom the flood of you and me.
But take me in your arms again
And do not talk of time.
10 Let flesh rub flesh to parchment--
Pale flowers crushed--
And grind more mortar for my soul's room . . .
Paint mirrors for my mind.
