Listen to the text "World Cup City".
Paul and Todd talk about what places are worthy of hosting the World Cup.
Write the phrases that you will hear.
1. Todd: Yeah, it was a bit tough. I thought actually that the US was deserving. I think was relatively close.
2. Todd: So that might be good. But actually to be honest what really surprised me was that Australia didn't get it. I thought Australia was the best choice. I thought Australia was a better choice than the US and Qatar. They've never had it in that region before, they have all the stadiums recently built for the Olympics in two thousand. They love football or soccer, they are always competitive in the World Cup, a very festive atmosphere, very multi-cultural like the US, so I thought they were candidate but they came in third. I think they were voted out first, I don't even remember.
3. Paul: I would have chosen Australia because it's never been there before. I think they would make a real kind of, you saw the Olympics there and it was a real success and I think having been to Australia, they don't really have a very good transportation network because it's so big and the cities are so far away from each other. I think it would have really helped to of Australia. Like you said, the festive kind of spirit of Australian culture I think would have made for a really memorable World Cup.
