READING
Exercise 2. Read and translate the following text. Use the dictionary when necessary.
Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo is a professional soccer player who has set records while playing for both Manchester United and Real Madrid. He was born on February 5, 1985, in Portugal. Ronaldo is the youngest of four children born to Maria and Jose Aveiro. He was named after Ronald Reagan, one of his father’s favorite actors.
Ronaldo grew up in a largely working class neighborhood. His early life was shaped by hardship; his father, a gardener, often drank too much. To help keep the children fed, and maintain some financial stability, Ronaldo’s mother worked as a cook and cleaning person.
It was through his dad’s work as an equipment manager at a boy’s club that Ronaldo was first introduced to the game of soccer. By the time he was 10 years old, he was already recognized as a phenomenon. All he wanted to do as a boy was play football. He loved the game so much he’d miss meals or escape out of his bedroom window with a ball when he was supposed to be doing his homework.
In 2001 at the age of 16, Ronaldo turned heads with a mesmerizing performance against Manchester United. He made such an impression that a number of United players asked their manager to try and sign the young player. It wasn’t long before the club paid Ronaldo’s team more than £12 million for his services – a record fee for a player of his age.
Ronaldo did not disappoint the soccer world. He showed his promise early on in the 2004 FA Cup final, scoring the team’s first three goals and helping them capture the championship. In 2008, a year after signing a five-year, £31 million contract, Ronaldo again justified his high salary when he put together one of the club’s finest seasons in history, setting a record for goals scored (42), and earning himself the FIFA World of the Year honor.
But Ronaldo’s time in England was marred by his mother’s 2007 struggle with breast cancer as well as his father’s death from alcohol-related illness. The latter was especially hard for Ronaldo as the two had been close.
In 2009, Spanish soccer club Real Madrid agreed to pay United a record $131 million for the chance to sign Ronaldo and he left United.
“I know that they are going to demand a lot of me to be successful at the club and I know that I’m going to have much more pressure than at Manchester United because I was there for many years,” Ronaldo told reporters. “But it means a new challenge and is going to help me be the best footballer.”
On July 10, 2016, Ronaldo added another emotional victory to his accolades, leading Portugal to the European Championship final against France as his national team’s captain. Although he was suffering a knee injury, Portugal went on to win the championship title 1-0, their first international trophy. Ronaldo’s teammates said that he motivated them as team captain.
“This is one of the happiest moments in my career,” Ronaldo commented. “I’ve always said I wanted to win a trophy with the national team and make history. And I did it. Thank God, things went well for us.”
In January 2017, Ronaldo won FIFA’s 2016 best player of the year for the fourth time, beating out Lionel Messi. Ronaldo’s 2016 wins included the European Championship, Champions League, and Club World Cup, plus individual awards from UEFA and France Football magazine, according to USA Today. In his acceptance speech, Ronaldo said: “2016 was the best year of my career.”
Exercise 3. Decide whether the following statements are true or false.
1. Cristiano Ronaldo was named after Ronald Reagan, one of the USA presidents. 2. Ronaldo loved football very much but he never missed meals and always did his homework. 3. At first the clubs didn’t pay Ronaldo’s team much for his work. 4. Ronaldo’s home country, Portugal, has never won the championship title. 5. In January 2017, Ronaldo won FIFA’s 2016 best player of the year.
