쉐도잉 연습: How FIFA corrupted the World Cup - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

레슨 만드는 중...
1
It's December 2nd, 2010, and the International Federation of Association Football,
2
or FIFA, gathered in Switzerland to announce which country would host the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.
3
And they had assembled a powerful audience.
4
Here is former US President Bill Clinton, who was there to back the US bid.
5
And here is Prince William, working on behalf of England's bid.
6
Behind him is the Prime Minister of the Netherlands and former Prime Minister of Belgium, who together submitted a joint bid.
7
But even with all this political power in one room, the fate of their countries lay in the hands of these guys, the 22 FIFA officials with the power to pick the host.
8
They were considered gods by the bidding nations.
9
They were the masters of their destiny.
10
But many of these men have been accused of abusing their power.
11
And this was the moment they took it a step too far.
12
2018 FIFA World Cup, ladies and gentlemen, will be organized in Russia.
13
The FIFA World Cup is Qatar!
14
The decision is still one of the worst decisions made by a sporting organisation.
15
It was a catastrophe for FIFA.
16
They've had their whole legacies called into question.
17
The announcement set off a cascade of events that rocked the world of football and nearly broke FIFA.
18
FIFA.
19
A rampant and deep-booted corruption.
20
And of corruption and...
21
Widespread corruption in the internet.
22
And money laundering.
23
How did FIFA go from organizing one of the most beloved sporting events in the world, to corrupting it?
24
Ready.
25
In the early 20th century, football was already super popular, mainly in Europe and South America, where national teams had begun playing each other.
26
So a group of officials in France formed FIFA in 1904 to oversee these competitions and promote the sport.
27
In 1930, inspired by the Olympics, they decided to start their own tournament.
28
The first question was, who would host it?
29
Out of FIFA's 44 member countries at the time, six placed bids to host it.
30
FIFA's Congress, made up of one representative from each country, was put in charge of voting for a winner.
31
But really, this vote was a facade.
32
So there was no big contest as such.
33
It was effectively decided behind closed doors by a bunch of committee men.
34
Eventually, FIFA awarded Uruguay the rights to host the first World Cup.
35
And it was a fitting place to do it.
36
Uruguay had just won the last two Olympic gold medals in football.
37
It also agreed to pay for a lot, including the travel expenses of other teams and share the profits with FIFA.
38
In July 1930, 13 teams came together to play.
39
Uruguay beat Argentina in the finals, and FIFA made a solid profit, mostly from ticket sales.
40
The World Cup was a success.
41
Over the next couple of decades, FIFA decided to rotate the tournament between Europe and South America.
42
The World Cup wasn't a grandiose thing back then.
43
You know, there were some upgrades to the stadiums, there was an existing infrastructure, there'd be some marketing going on.
44
But the World Cup wasn't a truly global event.
45
That all changed when it went on TV.
46
I am very pleased that this country is acting as host for the final of the World Cup.
47
Once the whole world could watch the tournament, the host nation became much more visible, leading many more countries to want to host one.
48
In virtually every country, football has now such a following that no government can afford to ignore it.
49
Through the 60s and 70s, FIFA's membership started exploding.
50
By the 80s, it had close to 170 members, mostly divided into six confederations with their own qualifying tournaments.
51
And the organization kept getting richer.
52
Take a look at how FIFA's profits grew steadily with almost every tournament until boom, the 1980s.
53
That's when World Cup sponsorships, merchandise and TV rights became worth millions.
54
All of this money was largely controlled by 24 officials, the leaders of each confederation and some senior officials like the president.
55
This group was called the Executive Committee, or EXCO.
56
They had the power to distribute FIFA's money to its member countries for building football fields, holding tournaments and establishing youth programs.
57
Very often this was dumb about any checks in place.
58
Lots of money was siphoned off.
59
You know, a development money kickback became almost standard practice in certain parts of the world.
60
FIFA leaders began using corrupt practices to gain and retain power.
61
The corruption that went on suited the two presidents.
62
Haviland was nakedly corrupt and he took bribes.
63
That's well documented.
64
Sepp Blatter was very different.
65
He was addicted to power.
66
There was a cabal of nakedly corrupt committee men within FIFA
67
and Mr. Blatter ignored their excesses because he relied on their support to keep himself in power.
68
It was in this culture of corruption that FIFA, in 1964, decided to take the vote away from Congress and give it to Exco.
69
Meaning that to host a World Cup, countries only needed to win the votes of a majority of Exco, just 13 of them.
70
The fact that such a small body of men had such a powerful position vested among them
71
without any real checks and balances.
72
Yeah, it absolutely made corruption part of it.
73
FIFA's corruption wasn't a secret, but they had moved their headquarters to Switzerland long ago.
74
And that meant their finances couldn't really be traced to confirm corruption, at least for another decade.
75
The 2006 World Cup bid was the most competitive in FIFA's history.
76
It had previously begun accepting bids from countries outside of Europe and South America.
77
It awarded hosting rights to the US in 94, and South Korea and Japan in 2002.
78
For the 2006 World Cup, five countries wanted to host it, and for good reason.
79
I think there's a huge amount of prestige that it brings to not just the country, but to the leadership of the country.
80
It's sort of a step on the way towards nation building.
81
With more and more countries desperate for World Cup prestige, FIFA found ways to play them off each other.
82
The bidding countries spent millions of dollars on a two-year gauntlet of PR events to impress FIFA.
83
And tried to outdo each other by promising new stadiums, hotels, infrastructure and lucrative TV offers.
84
This became the well-known public-facing side of the bidding process.
85
That was the start, I think, where the World Cup became really very heavily politicized.
86
When the 2006 vote came to a close, Exco chose...
87
Deutschland!
88
Thanks to one voter abstaining at the last moment, journalists had later revealed that Germany had bribed at least four ex-co members for their votes, including the official who abstained.
89
It was the first publicly reported incident
90
that revealed FIFA had another layer to its bidding process that involved cutting deals with ex-co members under the table.
91
Because of a lack of criteria that governed where the World Cup was going to go, The old men who sat on its executive committee were wined
92
and dined and indulged for a significant period of time and in some cases quite handsomely remunerated.
93
And it happened again for the 2010 World Cup bid, which South Africa won.
94
Allegations would later emerge that it too had paid ex-co members for their votes.
95
This shadier side of the bid was becoming vital to winning.
96
And in the next two bids, it would destroy the legacy of the World Cup.
97
In the lead-up to this announcement, FIFA had decided that the 2018 Cup would be in Europe.
98
Four bidders emerged.
99
England, with its expansive infrastructure, was the heavy favorite.
100
For the same reasons, the US was the favorite among five bidders for 2022.
101
But of course, this was only part of what it took to win a World Cup bid.
102
The countries that did win the vote
103
that day were the ones who could pour the most money into all levels of FIFA's system.
104
— People often overlook Russia.
105
You know, Russia's very much at the forefront of everybody's mind.
106
As long as someone like Vladimir Putin were behind it, then they were always going to be very competitive in that process.
107
This is Bonita Mercieris.
108
She saw the World Cup bidding process from the inside while working on Australia's bid that same year.
109
— They had the capacity, they had the technical capability, they had the facilities.
110
to pledge to spend $10 billion and the use of 16 stadiums.
111
But equally important was the fact that they stacked their bid with rich, influential, and well-connected people.
112
The head of the Russian bid was Igor Shivalov.
113
The Russian sports minister and the president of the Russian Football Association was also heavily involved,
114
and that they brought in some of their oligarchs to help support it financially, such as Abramovich.
115
What does that tell you?
116
It tells you we've got money.
117
We've got basically fuck you money.
118
We can do what we like.
119
And they did.
120
Ex-co-member Rafael Salguero would later admit that he agreed to accept $1 million for his vote from Russia.
121
And Jack Warner allegedly received $5 million for his.
122
Russia was using the full weight of its government, corporations, and connections to win every layer of the bid process, just as FIFA had designed it.
123
And they weren't the only ones.
124
The reason why I thought Qatar was always a possibility was this wasn't just about the World Cup for them.
125
It was the government seeing this as an important step in their nation building.
126
So they really, really wanted it.
127
And they had deep pockets.
128
At first glance, Qatar's bid was a long shot.
129
It's a fairly small country with a football team that's never qualified for the World Cup.
130
It was also too hot for football.
131
could reach 50 degrees in the summer.
132
And in 2010, Qatar only had one major city and one stadium big enough for a World Cup game.
133
But what Qatar did have is some of the largest natural gas reserves in the world, with an enormous amount of wealth, all controlled by the country's emir, Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani.
134
And they were willing to use it to win the 2022 bid.
135
It pledged to spend an astonishing $200 billion on infrastructure and build 12 brand new air-conditioned stadiums, A bid other countries couldn't match.
136
And they didn't forget about Exco.
137
British journalists would later allege that a Qatari-owned company paid Warner around $2 million for his vote.
138
There's also allegations that Qatar made payments to three other Exco members.
139
But Russia and Qatar's advantages went beyond wealth.
140
They were the only two authoritarian countries in the contest, meaning they were freer to work the shadier side of the bid.
141
The Australian World Cup bid was very well funded as well, but it was all publicly funded and every cent was meant to be accounted for.
142
You know, maybe you could move stuff around spreadsheets and so on, but if you were going to engage in the dark arts, you had to be very, very careful.
143
Whereas if you were coming from an authoritarian state, like Russia or like Qatar, you can do what you like.
144
FIFA created a bidding process that would inevitably be won by the countries with the the most cash and the least accountability.
145
And the thing is Russia and Qatar got away with it.
146
But the scandals that followed nearly destroyed FIFA.
147
Allegations emerged weeks after the 2010 vote.
148
But it wasn't until 2015 that the FBI arrested several FIFA officials in Zurich and launched investigations into decades of FIFA's dealings.
149
Even though no one's been put on trial for taking bribes from Qatar, since the vote 13 of the 22 ex-co voters present
150
that year have either been indicted or banned from FIFA at at some point.
151
Amidst these scandals, Sepp Blatter resigned in disgrace.
152
So in 2016, in an attempt to clean up its act, FIFA gave Congress the power to vote on World Cup hosts once again.
153
But the 2018 World Cup in Russia went on as planned, generating record revenue for FIFA.
154
And Qatar is predicted to do the same.
155
Are we comfortable with the human rights record of Qatar and Russia?
156
be comfortable with what Russia is doing at the moment.
157
That decision has been a great enabler for both those countries.
158
It's a decision that just doesn't stand the test of time at all.
159
They didn't get it right then, and it's not right now.

맥락 및 배경

이 비디오는 FIFA가 월드컵을 어떻게 부패시켰는지를 다룹니다. 2010년 12월 2일, FIFA는 스위스에서 2018년과 2022년 월드컵을 개최할 국가를 발표하기 위해 모였습니다. 그 자리에 있었던 인물들, 예를 들어 미국의 전 대통령 빌 클린턴과 영국의 윌리엄 왕자 등은 각국의 유치 작업을 지원하기 위해 참가했습니다. 그러나 이러한 정치적 파워에도 불구하고, FIFA의 22명의 고위 관계자들이 주최국 결정을 내리는 힘을 쥐고 있었습니다. 이들은 그들의 국가들에 비유하자면 신과도 같은 존재였습니다. 하지만 많은 이들이 이들이 권력을 남용했다고 비난하고 있으며, FIFA는 부패의 심각성으로 인해 그들의 전통과 신뢰성에 큰 타격을 입었습니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
