MISION IMPOSIBLE
Cruise Again Lives 'Dangerously' in Fifth 'Mission Impossible' Film.
“Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation” is the fifth installment of a successful 20-year-old spy movie series. The series is based on
the iconic 1960s TV series, also called “Mission: Impossible.”
As in the first four movies, Tom Cruise is the lead actor in the new film. He also serves executive producer.
Cruise’s character, Ethan Hunt,
is part of the Impossible Missions Force,
or IMF. But, the group is broken up and absorbed by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. Ethan Hunt is trying to prove to the C.I.A. the existence of an international crime organization called the Syndicate.
The Syndicate’s members are dissident agents. They damage the world economy and kill world leaders. Hunt
must try to investigate and destroy the Syndicate without letting agency chiefs know.
As in the past 'Mission Imposible ' films, Tom Cruise performs the Stunts himself.
Stunts are difficult and sometimes dangerous physicalactst.
Filmmaker Christopher McQuarrie wrote and directed 'MI5,' as this latest installment is affectionately called. He said he wanted to make the film for an international audience. He wanted to take movie watchers to places they might not able to go to in reality.
For example, the production team chose Morocco to film a wildly dangerous motorcycle chase on a curvy mountain road. Cruise speeds down the road. He does not even wear a helmet for the stunt.
But Cruise says he feels lucky.
He says, "…I get to work with the best bikes so that we can do very extreme things."
The actor also into has to perform a stunt in deep water without an oxygen tank. He had to train to hold his breath for more than three minutes.
He said he was surprised by
the difficulty of that training.
The "Mission Impossible - Roque Nation" cast also includes Jeremy Renner, Alec Baldwin and newcomer Sarah Ferguson. The movie cost $150 million to make. It was released July 23. Within its first two weeks in theaters, “Rogue Nation” made almost $140 million worldwide.

COMPRENSIÓN DE TEXTO – THE WEEE MAN
A continuación deberás escuchar y leer simultáneamente el texto que sigue a fin de obtener una idea general del
mismo. Para ello deberás utilizar SKIMMING como estrategia de lectura general.
THE WEEE MAN.
The machines we use don`t last forever. So what happens when we can`t use them any longer? Currently, most our Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) goes straight into landfills. However, all this e-waste isn`t good for the environment. Paul Bonomini used waste equipment to make the WEEE man, a 23 ft. high sculpture in England, to remind us that we must make less waste. Five fridges, 35 cell phones, five sandwich makers, and four lawn mowers are part of the 3.3 ton sculpture. Computes mice are its teeth, vacuum cleaner tubes are his neck, and old washing machine is part of of its spine. How can this sculpture change our behavior? Every one of us try to make the world a better place. There are a number of things we can do. Firstly, we should try to maintain appliances for as long as possible. We shouldn`t throw away old appliances if they ara still in good working condition. We can repair them, sell them, or donate them. Secondly, we should recycle parts wich we can`t repair. For example there are companies that recycle old cell phones. Some companies will you buy your old model to use for spare parts.
