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: These were not going to be for another twelve years and the  proposing are going to be really high tech and just marvels of architecture and the stadiums that we have now are going to be twelve years old by the time the World Cup would come around so that makes a lot of sense.

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  in the World Cup, a very festive atmosphere, very multi-cultural like the US, so I thought they were the perfect 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  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.
