A Most Magnificent Mountain Museum The Messner Mountain Museum Corones, or MMM Corones, is an interesting museum in southern Italy. It’s not in a city, between huge buildings. It’s on Mount Kronplatz, 2,275 m above sea level! To visit MMM Corones, you first need to hike up the mountain or take a ropeway to the top. The museum is made of gray concrete. Some of it is inside Mount Kronplatz, and some of it is outside. Of course, it also has big windows, so you can enjoy the clear, blue sky and a view of the beautiful mountains all around you.

B AUTHENTIC TEXT 1 Read and circle the words that can be used to describe someone’s personality. Then answer the questions. 1-01

Paragraph 1 Everyone has a different personality. Some people are lively and social, while others are shy and quiet. Scientists describe people who love being in groups as extroverted. They describe people who prefer to be alone as introverted. Paragraph 2 Extroverts like being the center of attention and do well in most social situations. They are comfortable at parties and become bored when they are alone. Extroverts communicate well and appear to be friendly, charming, and approachable. These qualities make extroverts excellent salespeople, event planners, financial advisers, and even hairstylists. Paragraph 3 Often described as loners, introverts prefer spending time engaged in their own interests. Some people believe introverts are never confident, but that belief is not true. Many introverts are more comfortable listening than speaking. Introverts have many other good qualities. They are often more creative than extroverts, and they appear to be calmer and more thoughtful. Suitable careers for introverted people include scientific researchers, artists, photographers, programmers, and accountants. Paragraph 4 Not everyone’s character can be clearly defined as introverted or extroverted. Most people can be one or the other, depending on the situation. For this reason, many scientists argue for a third personality type: ambiverts. Ambiverts are people who can change between introversion and extroversion. They don’t hate attention, but they also don’t seek it out. Brief note

The center of attention is someone who attracts the attention or interest of everyone in a group.

Extroverts are not creative.

Extroverts make good salespeople.

Hi, Mom and Dad. How have you been doing? Sorry I haven’t written for a few days. I’ve been decorating my dorm, exploring the campus, and getting to know my roommate. Lucia is really cool—she’s into photography. She goes camping a lot in the mountains, where she takes photos of the scenery and wildlife. She also paints. I’ve seen some of her pictures, and they’re beautiful! We’ve made plans to go to her favorite campsite this Saturday. Two of her friends are coming, too. I told her that I’ve never been camping before, so she’ll have to teach me everything. In exchange, I’m going to teach her about computers. Except for cameras, she knows nothing about electronics! I’m going to help her set up a blog so she can upload her nature photos and other artwork. This afternoon, Lucia and I are going shopping for some new camping equipment. I’ll tell you all about the trip on Monday. Love, Christine

Mike Z. Ottawa, Canada I’m going on a business trip to Seoul with a few coworkers. We’re looking for fun, affordable things to do in our free time. Any suggestions? (One of my coworkers is asking about golf, especially.) Thanks.

Sujin J. Seoul, Korea I don’t know much about golf, but I have other suggestions. First, visit Namsan (a mountain near the city center). Go strolling around Namsan Park, and then climb to Seoul Tower at the top. The tower has an amazing view of the whole city. There are several international restaurants there, as well as traditional Korean restaurants. It’s a wellknown date spot, but it’s great for all sightseers. I also recommend going to a noraebang (“singing room”). In most neighborhoods, you can easily find a karaoke singing room. Each group gets a separate room, so only your friends hear you sing!

Nick E. Sydney, Australia Playing golf is pretty expensive in Korea, but you can try “screen golf.” Screen golf is like a video game. You hit a real ball with a real golf club, but you hit it indoors, at a screen. A computer measures your ball’s speed, location, etc. It’s amazing—try it!

2 Talk about the questions after you read. 1. Why is Mike Z. posting on this website? 2. Have you ever done karaoke? 3. Does “screen golf” sound like fun to you?

3 Circle the five statements below that are true according to the information in the reading. 1. Mike is going on a trip for work. 2. Mike especially wants to play golf in Korea. 3.

Nick has been to Korea more than once. 7. It is quite cheap to play golf in Korea. 8. Nick strongly recommends screen golf.

A profile is a short written description of someone. It often includes a photo, or profile picture.

He has a small family. b. He is Italian. c. He lives in the mountains. 3. Which word does NOT describe Robert?

Robert Moretti (rmoretti25) I’m an outgoing, active guy who teaches history and coaches soccer at a local high school. My passions are fitness, nature, and my job. I love hiking and try to go to the mountains as often as possible. When I’m not exploring the outdoors, I’m hanging out with friends and family, practicing guitar, and improving my cooking. I come from a big Italian family, so Italian food is my specialty. When it comes to dating, I’m old-fashioned and I’m looking for a serious relationship. I’d like to meet someone to spend the future with. She should be bright, independent, and kind. She should also have a good sense of humor. (This means she laughs at my jokes, of course!) Loving sports and nature is a plus. If that sounds like you, then I’d love to hear from you.

MASTER ACADEMIC WRITING

Analytical Essay

A PRE-READING 1 Number the facts in the proper order. These days, hundreds of people climb to the top of Everest each year despite the challenges. Mount Everest, the tallest mountain on Earth, is 8,848 meters tall. But even with modern technology, climbers must stay safe from dangers like avalanches and extreme cold. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, 656 people climbed Mount Everest in 2023, and eighteen died in the attempt. Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary were the first to reach its peak in 1953.

Brief note

In analytical writing, facts should be stated clearly and presented in an order that makes sense. Remember that the reader may not know as much about the topic as you do.

Including the source of a fact helps readers trust your writing and gives them something to check if they want more information. Good sources include books published by university presses, encyclopedias, and the websites of trusted news outlets. Bad sources include social media posts, fictional books, and most blogs. If you don’t know whether a source can be trusted, check to see if facts from it are quoted elsewhere online.

2 Look at the red mistakes in the analytical essay. Write why they are incorrect. It’s the fourth most popular sport in the United States, behind football, baseball, and basketball. Soccer is the biggest sport in most countries around the globe, but not in the US! However, the sport is gaining a bigger and bigger American audience over time. According to Forbes magazine, around seventeen million Americans watched the Men’s World Cup Final on TV in 2014, and nearly twenty-six million watched it in 2022. That’s a huge increase in viewership. (But my cousin Robin didn’t watch it at all.) According to Major League Soccer (MLS), soccer fans in the US are diverse and young. Forty percent are people of color, and more than half of them are under the age of forty-five. Plus, ILuvSoccer23 says that five million people in the city of Chicago watched the Women’s World Cup in 2023!

We also see soccer gaining popularity in another area: video games. The soccer game EA Sports FC 24 was the second-highestgrossing electronic game in the US in 2024! It’s totally awesome that gamers can maybe peep soccer on TV, too. Video games can drive interest in real soccer events and vice-versa: watching a World Cup match could also create interest in soccer video games.

MLS welcomed twelve million fans to its games in 2024. That’s great! Brief note After you finish writing an analytical essay, check it for any errors: spelling mistakes, unclear sentences, problems with logic, etc. If you need help, you can ask a friend to review your writing.
