UNIFESO 2011/2Life at 63, for Arnold Schwarzenegger, is a titanic
clash between human frailty and dazzling possibility. "I feel
terrific about where I am in my life, when I look back at
what I´ve accomplished," he says over a late lunch at
[5] London´s Savoy Hotel, his much mimicked Teutonic
rumble competing with a teatime pianist. "But I feel shitty
when I look at myself in the mirror."
It´s a jolt to hear Schwarzenegger - a five-time Mr.
Universe and seven-time Mr. Olympia before he was
[10] Conan the Barbarian, the Terminator, and ultimately the
Governator - musing about his own decay. Although his
friend James Cameron, the director who cast him in True
Lies and the Terminator movies, points out, " Arnold´s
version of ´shitty´ and everybody else´s at that age are
[15] two different things."
Normally in motion, Schwarzenegger is enjoying a
rare moment of reflection. His two terms as California
governor started with a host of accomplishments and postpartisan
good will, but then sputtered out three and a half
[20] months ago with the state in fiscal meltdown.
Schwarzenegger left office with a job-approval rating in the
low 20s, just like Governor Gray Davis, the Democrat he
ousted in the circuslike recall election of october 2003.
Now he is trying to figure out the next big thing in
[25] his implausible journey from Austrian bodybuilder to action
hero to American politician. There is no obvious master
plan. However expectations are sky-high for wath he might
accomplish with his unique combination of star power,
political connections and policy chops. Schwarzenegger will
[30] continue working with the United nations on global climate
change, his signature issue as governor. He will also work
for infrastructure development and immigration reform,
while supporting after-shcool programs and the Special
Olympics, and appearing at the Arnold Classic, his annual
[35] bodybuilding and sports convention in Ohio.
Former secretary of state George Shultz believes
that he will be remembered by his accomplishments and
says: "The is a different feeling about him than about
Gray Davis. He could walk anywhere in the state and
[40] people would want his autograph."

From paragraph 1 we infer that Arnold Schwazenegger

The Victor
If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don’t.
If you like to win but think you can’t,
It’s almost a cinch you won’t.
[5] If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost.
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellow’s will.
It’s all in the state of mind.
If you think you are out classed, you are.
[10] You’ve got to think high to rise.
You’ve got to be sure of your-self before
You can ever win the prize.
Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster man.
[15] But sooner or later, the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.

Polar bears will be protected in Alaska
The US government says land that oil and gas
companies want to drill in Alaska is a crucial home for
polar bears. Environmentalists hope this announcement
will help save the endangered animals.
[5] Right now in an icy den in the Arctic, a polar bear
is giving birth to cubs, or is about to. But the very survival
of this fearsome, majestic species concerns many
humans.
Polar bears live and hunt on sea ice, but the frozen
[10] Arctic Ocean is melting at an increasing rate, a result,
scientists say, of global warming caused by greenhouse
gases.
Now the US government has designated nearly
500,000 km2 in Alaska as critical habitats for the polar
[15] bear. It covers an area of roughly twice the size of the
United Kingdom, and it means any proposed economic
activity there, must be weighed against its impact on
the bears’ habitat. It includes some of the Chukchi and
Beaufort Seas, exactly where the oil company, Shell,
[20] wants to drill.
The designation itself doesn’t ban oil exploration,
but it adds extra obstacles that opponents say will harm
the economy. Environmentalists welcome the move,
saying now they can write a recovery plan for polar bears,
[25] not an obituary.

BlackBerry announces iPad rival
29 September 2010
The company that makes BlackBerry mobile
phones has announced plans for a new, touchscreen,
tablet-style computer to rival the Apple iPad. The
PlayBook goes on sale next year.
[5] BlackBerry’s equivalent to the iPad has a smaller
screen and is lighter than Apple’s device. That’s meant
to make it appealing to business people on the move,
the kind of people who already buy BlackBerry phones.
Nearly six million iPads were sold in the first six
[10] months, so it’s easy to see why Research in Motion,
the Canadian firm behind the BlackBerry, wants a bite of
Apple’s market. One key selling point for RIM’s product
is, unlike the iPad, it runs Flash video, the most popular
software for showing moving images online.
[15] Apple devices don’t run Flash, thanks to a
well-publicized disagreement between the company and
Adobe, the firm behind the video technology.
Analysts say the BlackBerry tablet device is better
placed than many rivals to mount an effective challenge
[20] to Apple. But it’s seen as more likely to find a niche in
the market than to be an outright iPad-killer.
