But the story of these two companies begins in ‘one house in the town of Herzogenaurach, Germany. ‘Adolph and Rudolph Dassler were the sons of a shoemaker. They loved sport but complained that they could never find comfortable shoes to play in. Rudolph always said, ‘You cannat play sports wearing shoes that you'd walk around town with.” So they started making their own, In 1920 Adolph made the first pair of athiatics| shoes with spikes!, produced on the Dasslers kitchen table. On 1st July 1924 they Tormed a shoe company, Dasster Brothers Ltd. The company became successful and it provided the shoes for Germany's ethletes at the 1928 ‘and 1982 Glyrnpic Games. But in 1948 the brothers argued. No one knows exactly ‘what happened but family members have suggested that the argument was about money or women. The result was that Adelph teft the company.

After the big split of 1948 Adolph and Rudolph never ‘spoke to each other again and since then their companies have been in competition. Both companies were for many years the market leaders, though Adidas has always been more successful than Puma. In the 1970s new American ‘companies Nike and Reebok arrived to rival them. ‘The terrible family argument should really be forgotten, but ever since it happened, over fifty years ago, the town has been split into two.

Journalists write the stories, but the editor controls the contents of the newspaper. He/She decides which stories should go on the front page. Editors also write the headlines for the main stories. The Sunday papers have more sections than the daily papers, for example they have a sports section with reports of different sporting events, a financial section with articles about money and a review section, This often has interviews with celebrities like film stars and singers. Newspapers are cheap in the UK and they make lots of money by including advertisements.

(NOT: The- vase what-+-broke-was-very- expensive.) In less formal English we often use that instead of who or which. The police caught the man that robbed the bank. When the verb after the relative pronoun has a different subject, we can omit who and which. The film which | saw was called Jaws.

(a) Three top jobs and five happy years Frank Abagnale, a good-looking American boy with more dreams than money, pretended to be first a pilot, then a doctor and then a lawyer. For five years he travelled the world for free, stayed in expensive hotes and had relationships with beautiful women, By the age of twenty-one he had ‘wicked and cheated his way to $2.5 millon. o__ In the golden age of lames Bond, Abagnale really was an international man of mystery. He was wanted by the FBI and Interpol (international Police) in twenty-six countries, His good looks and greying hair helped him, but his charm was his most important tool. He dressed well and everybody believed the stories he made up. Leonardo DiCaprio, who plays Frank Abagnale in te film Catch me if you can sid, ‘Frank Abagnale is one of the greatest actors who has walked the earth.” Qe ‘Abagnale was a lonely child. When his mother, who was French, broke up with his father, a New York shopkeeper, Abagnale had to choose which parent ‘0 live with. Instead, aged sixteen, he dropped out of schoo}, ran away from home and began his life as an international trickster. He used magnetic ink ‘to change bank code numbers illegally. He managed to steal $40,000 of other customers’ money before the banks worked out what he was doing. He also 4 got a Pan Am pilots uniform by saying that his catch me if you can ‘was lost at the dry cleaners and that he had an urgent flight. This allowed him to stay in any hotel he wanted; Pan Am always paid the bil. He even pretended to be a doctor and worked as a hospital administrator for a year. With no formal training, he picked up the skills by reading medical books and watching other doctors at work. taw repeatedly. He ran out of luck in France, where he spent time in prison, before the FBl finally caught up with him in the USA, Despite hs crimes, Abagnale never had any enemies. Joseph Shea, the FB! man who arrested him and later became his friend, sad, ‘I think Frank is close to genius. What he did as a teenager is incredible. His crimes weren't physical.

He wrote his autobiography in the 1970s and sold the film rights for $250,000.

If the advertisement makes us feel good, ie. it has images which we enjoy and remember, then we start to associate good feelings with the product. We respond well to adverts which demonstrate a lifestyle we would lke to have. Famous people are often used in adverts because of their successful lifestyle. Footballers advertise sports drinks. We buy the drink and sense the success. survey of 4,000 adverts found that adverts with celebrities were 10 percent more effective than adverts without Humour is also used, as funny adverts are remembered for longer: In addition, advert makers appeal to our senses. Unless your mouth waters, a chocolate advert is probably a failure, They want you to want their product. ‘Warning signs: + High price: Ifa product costs a lot of money, it won't necessarily be good quality t might be just part of its image + Famous people: Advertisers want you to believe that if you buy their product, you can start to live the lifestyle of the celebrity who advertises it + Reward and Punishment:f you buy this, you will stay young’ (the reward), also means ‘Unless you buy this, you will look ola!

He allowed them to sot their own series, and he cut all the jobs he thought were unnecessary, tke recepinists and secrets. This saved rmaney and brought more equality tothe company. Everyone at ‘Semeo, even top managers, meets quests in reception, does the photocopying, sands faxes, types ltrs an dials the phone.” He completely reorganised the office: Instead of walls, they have plants at Semoo, so bosses can't shut themselves away from everyone else.
