ENG311: FIFA 2010

FIF 2010

The FIFA World Cup, occasionally called the Football World Cup or Soccer World Cup, but usually referred to simply as the World Cup, is an international association football competition contested by the men's national teams of the members of Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the sport's global governing body. The championship has been awarded every four years since the first tournament in 1930, except in 1942 and 1946 when it was not contested because of World War II.


The 2010 FIFA World Cup will be the 19th FIFA World Cup, the premier international football tournament. It is scheduled to take place between 11 June and 11 July 2010 in South Africa. The 2010 FIFA World Cup will be the culmination of a qualification process that began in August 2007 and involved 204 of the 208 FIFA national teams. As such, it matches the 2008 Summer Olympics as the sports event with the most competing nations.

This will be the first time that the tournament has been hosted by an African nation, after South Africa beat Morocco and Egypt in an all-African bidding process. This decision left the Oceania Football Confederation as the only confederation yet to host the FIFA World Cup. Italy is the defending champions. The draw for the finals took place on 4 December 2009 in Cape Town.

Five new stadiums have been built for the tournament, and five of the existing venues are to be upgraded. Construction costs are expected to be R8.4bn.

In addition to the stadiums being built and upgraded, South Africa is also planning to improve its current public transport infrastructure within the various cities, with projects such as the Gautrain and the new Bus Rapid Transit system (BRT) titled Rea Vaya. Danny Jordaan, the president of the 2010 World Cup organizing committee, has said that he expects all stadiums for the tournament to be completed by October 2009.

70,000 construction workers who were supposed to be working on the new stadiums walked off their jobs on 8 July 2009. Major road networks have been improved to cater for the expected influx of people coming to the country who will be traveling to and from the match stadiums. The Gautrain (underground rail network) will be complete in time for the opening game, but only limited lengths of the route.

ENG311: How to avoid stress before exams

        Stress is a serious problem that pushes us into pressure and loneliness. If we do not consider this problem as soon as possible, it is accumulated and it forms a real bad impact on our health and job. There has many ways to solve this problem.


       First of all, we need to take a regular break when we are in a stress. As a result, your mind would be cleaner and your study time would be more productive. Also break can give us more time to rest of our mind.

       Furthermore, we can study with our friends as much as possible. And it can discuss any difficulties that come up. In other word, it means we would be dispelled our stress if we do this. Also, communication is the main factor that becomes less stress.

          Finally, we should eat properly and get enough sleep. When we are defective of food, we start to get stress. Also, our mind or brain is more relaxed when we sleep. By doing this, we would be healthy and able to more concentrate for exam. And in addition to, we have to make a study plan. It means we need to have time management. The reason is work would be more organized if we can take it all. We get a stress easier causing by our wrong time management or study planning.

        All things considered, we can be out of stress if all those steps are taken. The last word I notice for this problem, it only relate to our attitude whether to become less stress.
