Jurassic World breaks box office record
Jurassic World broke box office records around the world. It is the first movie to make more than $500 million on its opening weekend. It made $204 million in the USA and $100 million in China. A movie expert said everyone was surprised. He said: “No one saw this coming.” Most people thought the film would make $100 million in the USA. The movie The Avengers has the record for the most successful movie on an opening weekend in the US.
Jurassic World is part four in the Jurassic Park series. The first was in 1993. The latest movie was the most popular film in the 66 countries where it was released. One reason is because many parents who watched the first Jurassic Park when they were children took their own kids to see Jurassic World. Another reason is because the movie opened in China and in the US on the same weekend. China is the world’s second biggest film market.

TEXTO:
A climate of agreement
In the not-too-distant past, the tobacco industry
funded scientists who raised the shadow of a doubt that
the shadows on people’s lungs were cancers caused by
smoking. There were other causes, they said. And many
[5] people who wanted to believe them did so, kept smoking,
and died. Today those who don’t want to believe that
climate change is caused by human activities keep
saying there’s no consensus among scientists. Well,
that’s just not true. It’s been proven again and again that
[10] a great majority of scientists have concluded there is a
casual connection between human activity and global
warming. Now the journal Environmental Research
Letters has published a careful new study of thousands
of peer-reviewed papers showing that when scientists
[15] take a position on the issue, a full 97 percent blame
human causes. This is important because press reports
that cite doubters representing “the other side of the
question,” without saying how minuscule the proportion,
have convinced the public there’s an even split. There
[20] are many issues on which scientists really do disagree,
like the specific link, or lack of it, between global warming
and killer tornados. But about the general cause of the
warming itself, there’s barely any dissent at all.
