Reading 1:
Conspiracy Theories and HoaxesBy Alicia Arriz
November, 2007
Can you be easily deceived? Currently, the whole world seems
rife with conspiracy theories. The idea
that the world population is manipulated by a powerful group of
elitists may not be farfetched. The terms
Conspiracy theory and hoaxseem to refer to big lies, to
diversions of the truth. A conspiracy is a secret
plot to carry out some deed against a rival by a few insiders.
Unless someone from the inside leaks the plans
or the plot is somehow discovered, by definition, conspiracies
are not known until after the fact. Hence, they
are vulnerable as soon as they are exposed.
A conspiracy theory is a perception of a possible conspiracy. It
may be either true or false. A conspirac
theory remains a theory until it is exposed and proven factual.
A hoax, on the other hand, is just an attempt to
trick an audience into believing that something false is real.
It has been claimed that major events in history
have been orchestrated by conspirators who manipulate political
happenings from behind the scenes. Some
examples of these beliefs are: that AIDS was created to rid the
world of the Black race; the recent tsunami in
Vocabulary before the reading.
To deceive: implies imposing a false idea or belief that
causes
ignorance, bewilderment, or helplessness
Mainstream media: a prevailing current or direction of
activity
or influence as the Media
Far-fetched: unlikely to be true, highly improbable, very
difficult to believe.
Bizarre: strikingly out of the ordinary, odd, extravagant,
or
eccentric, involving sensational contrasts or incongruities.
To be biased: prejudiced, favoring one person or side over
another.

Asia was caused by Israel and the U.S. setting off a nuclear
bomb on the ocean floor; the Iraq War was
concocted at the presidents Crawford Ranch to help his oil
buddies; the U.S. government is tampering the
weather by shifting the jet streams in Alaska with secret giant
jet fans. These theories are not just being
fostered by the unwashed masses, but often by well-placed,
highly-educated men and women.
A common example of a popular conspiracy theory is the Moon
Landing. 40 years after the first moon
landing, we still hear that putting a man on the moon in 1969
has been the greatest hoax everorchestrated by
the American Government in order to win the space war against
the Soviet Union. In other words, the entire
human landing program was carefully faked from start to finish.
Although NASA has debunked each one of the
arguments that support this bizarre allegation, there are still
web pages and documentaries loaded with
interesting pieces of evidence that uphold the moon hoax
theory.
We have also heard Thierry Meyssan, author of the The Big Lie,
who challenges the official version o
the September 11th terrorist attacks to the United States.
Meyssans claims are developed in the TV program
The FifthEstate: Conspiracy Theories broadcast by the Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) in 2004
According to Meyssan, the American Airlines Flight 77 did not
hit the U.S. Pentagon in Washington proved by
the fact that the size of the hole left in the Pentagon was too
small for that plane. Instead, he concludes tha
the impact was caused by something much smaller that was fired
by the American government itselfFurthermore, the attacks on the
World Trade Center are thought to have been controlled by radio
beacons
from the ground. Behind this September 11th hoax, would be
George W. Bush who is blamed to have been
moved by the desire to find a reason to put a hand on the Middle
East oil
(http://www.cbc.ca/fifth/conspiracytheories/index.html).
More recently, it is said that the swine flu was created in the
laboratory by the same producers of the
antiviral medication to treat it, Tamiflu. American politicians
as Ronald Rumfield have been linked to the
pharmaceutical company that owns the patent of the medication
and have been accused of capitalizing on a
virus that just isn't that much of a threat.
According to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC),
conspiracy theories involve wild allegationsdepend on questionable
characters and seem like a waste of time. But the CBC also admits
that many o
these theories are based, at least in part, on legitimate
questions. Moreover, forThe New York Times
columnist Paul Krugman, bizarre conspiracy theories have played
a disturbingly large role in the curren
American political discourse. Why the increase in conspiracy
theories? One writer remarked that conspiracies
are the new opiate of the masses (Mary Jacobs, writer for the
Dallas Morning News). There are many reasons
why multitudes resort to conspiracy theory:
1. The Internet. There are literally hundreds of sites given
wholly to explaining world events by a powerfu
conspiracy (or conspiracies).
2. End times Speculation. Some Christians from the Protestant
Millennial tradition see history windingdown and the emergence of a
one-world government combined with a one-world religion
ultimately
ruled by The Antichrist, and thus make predicting events based
on their conspiracy theories the foca
point of their ministries.
3. The Complexity of the Times. Epidemics, weather events, wars,
catastrophes, politica
assassinations, and terrorism are seen nightly on TV. When
people live in constant fear, conspiracy
theories seem to make the complex and seemingly unexplainable
world events more manageable.
4. The Distrust of Modern Government. As the government grows
larger and intrudes into every area o
our lives, its easy to attribute this growth and increase in
power to conspiracy.

5. Hollywood Movies and Contemporary Fiction. Some recent movies
that contribute to endless
speculations about conspiracies are: JFK, Conspiracy, Fahrenheit
911, The Skulls, and The Firm, and
The Matrix. The recent best-selling novel, The DaVinci Code by
Dan Brown, and his forth-coming book
on Masonry are according to his claim, based on the truth.
But, why are we so sceptical about them? We may be trained to
believe only what mainstream media
says and fanatically close our eyes to other alternatives. That
we call them conspiracy theories, however
points to the fact that we are probably biased.

Reading 2:
Greatest Conspiracy Theories in History
Why do people believe in conspiracy theories? That, of course is
a loaded question. We could havasked why some people refuse to
believe any conspiracy theories.
Recent research suggests that whether you believe in conspiracy
theories or not has much more to dwith who you are more than the
objective facts. For instance, the richer you are and the whiter
you are in thUSA the less likely you are to believe in a conspiracy
theory. Conversely, poor people especially if they arHispanic
Americans and African Americans tend to believe. In other words
those who are empowered (ricand white folk) like to believe that
the powerful act openly and fairly, those who are powerless believe
thapower is used covertly and unfairly. Of course, the figures vary
from conspiracy to conspiracy. 20% of AfricaAmericans believe that
the US Administration created AIDS to limit the population growth
of the black minorit
Virtually, no white people believe this. On the other hand, in
one poll 90% of US citizens - i.e. the majority owhites, blacks and
Hispanics believed that JFK had been killed in a conspiracy.
Conspiracy theories are also generational. Americans aged over
36 believe most strongly in the JFconspiracy, while the 20 -35 age
bracket contains most of those Americans who believe in a 9/11
conspiracPresumably most of the ten million downloads ofLoose
Change, an Internet expos documentary about 9/1were made by these
young Americans.
Below you will find some of the most believed conspiracy
theories in the US and worldwide:
Global warming is a hoax
Some climate change doubters believe that man-made global
warming is a conspiracy designed to soften uthe worlds population
into allowing highertaxation, controls on lifestyle and a more
authoritarian governmenThese skeptics cite a fall in global
temperatures since last year and a leveling off in the rise in
temperatusince 1998 as evidence.
The Aids virus was created in a laboratory
Based on the theories of Dr. William Campbell Douglass, many
believe that HIV was genetically engineered 1974 by the World
Health Organization. Dr. Douglass believed that it was a
cold-blooded attempt to create killer virus which was then used in
a successful experiment in Africa. Others have claimed that it was

Pan Am Flight 103
Pan Am Flight 103 was Pan Americans third daily scheduled
transatlantic flight from Heathrow to New YorJohn F. Kennedy
International Airport. On December 21, 1988, the aircraft flying
this route a Boeing 747was destroyed by a bomb, killing all 259
people on board and 11 people on the ground. The remains
landearound Lockerbie in southern Scotland. A popular theory for
which no evidence has been produced suggestthat the US Central
Intelligence Agency (CIA) had set up a protected drug route from
Europe to the UniteStates allegedly called Operation Korea which
allowed Syrian drug dealers to ship heroin to the US usinPan Am
flights. The CIA allegedly protected the suitcases containing the
drugs and made sure they were no
searched. On the day of the bombing, terrorists exchanged
suitcases: one with drugs for one with a bombAnother version of
this theory is that the CIA knew in advance this exchange would
take place, but let happen anyway, because the protected drug route
was a rogue operation, and the American intelligencofficers on the
flight had found out about it, and were on their way to Washington
to tell their superiors.
Pearl Harbor was allowed to happen
Theorists believe that President Franklin Roosevelt provoked the
Japanese attack on the US naval base Hawaii in December 1942, knew
about it in advance and covered up his failure to warn his fleet
commanderHe apparently needed the attack to provoke Hitler into
declaring war on the US because the American publand Congress were
overwhelmingly against entering the war in Europe. Theorists
believe that the US wawarned by the governments of Britain, the
Netherlands, Australia, Peru, Korea and the Soviet Union
thatsurprise attack on Pearl Harbor was coming and that;
furthermore, the Americans had intercepted and brokeall the
important Japanese codes in the run up to the attack.
Elvis Presley faked his own death
A persistent belief is that the King did not die in 1977. Many
fans persist in claiming he is still alive, that hwent into hiding
for various reasons. This claim is allegedly backed up by thousands
of so-called sightingThe main reason given in support of the belief
that Presley faked his death is that, on his grave, his middname
Aron is spelt as Aaron But Aaron is actually the genuine middle
name for Presley Apparently eith

Jesse Garon Presley. Two tabloid newspapers ran articles
covering the continuing life of Presley after hdeath, in great
detail, including a broken leg from a motorcycle accident, all the
way up to his purportedredeath in the mid 1990s.
Diana, Princess of Wales, was murdered
Despite an official inquiry that found no evidence of a plot by
MI6 or any other entity to murder the princesand Dodi Fayed in
1997, feveredspeculation continues. The theory is that rogue
elements in the British secrservice decided that Dianas
relationship with Fayed was a threat to the monarchy and,
therefore, to thBritish state. A plot was hatched in which a white
Fiat Uno carrying agents was sent to blind and disorientatdriver
Henri Paul as he sped through the Paris underpass pursued by
photographers. Later, Pauls blood wa
switched with a sample of somebody who had drunk a lot of
alcohol. The trouble with the theory? Not a shreof evidence exists
to support it.
The Jesus conspiracy
This theory launched a blockbusting novel (The Da Vinci Code), a
film of the same name and a plagiarisbattle in the courts. Those
who believe in this and they seem to number in their millions think
that Jesumarried Mary Magdalene, had one or more children, and that
those children or their descendants emigrated southern France. Once
there, they intermarried with the noble families that would
eventually become thMerovingian dynasty, whose special claim to the
throne of France is championed today by a secret sociecalled the
Priory of Sion.
Nasa faked the moon landings
People who think that the Apollo moon landings were not all that
they seemed at the time believe that Nasfaked some or all of the
landings. Some of the theories surrounding this subject are that
the Apollo astronaudid not land on the Moon; Nasa and possibly
others intentionally deceived the public into believing th
landings did occur by manufacturing, destroying, or tampering
with evidence, including photos, telemettapes, transmissions, and
rock samples; and that Nasa and possibly others continue to
actively participate the conspiracy to this day. Those who think
that Nasa faked some or all of the landings base their theories

planted by Buzz Aldrin moving in a strange way, the lack of
stars over the lunar landscape and shadows fallinin different
direction. These theories have been generally discounted but belief
in them particularly on thweb persists.
A flying saucer crashed at Roswell in 1947
The event that kick-started more than a half century of
conspiracy theories surrounding unidentified flyinobjects (UFOs).
Something did crash at Roswell, New Mexico, sometime before July 7,
1947 and at first the US authorities stated explicitly that this
was a flying saucer or disk as shown by the splash story on thadays
Roswell Daily Record, pictured. Numerous witnesses reported seeing
metallic debris scattered over wide area and at least one reported
seeing a blazing craft crossing the sky shortly before it crashed.
In recen
years, witnesses have added significant new details, including
claims of a large military operation dedicated recovering alien
craft and aliens themselves, at as many as 11 crash sites, and
alleged witness intimidation. 1989, former mortician Glenn Dennis
claimed that he was involved in alien autopsies which were carried
out the Roswell air force base.
The conspiracy theory has been fanned by the US military
repeatedly changing its story. Within hours of tharmy telling
reporters that it had recovered a crashed saucer, senior officers
insisted that the only thing thahad fallen from the sky had been a
weather balloon. A report by the Office of the Secretary of the Air
Forcreleased in 1995, concluded that the reported recovered
material in 1947 was likely debris from a secregovernment program
called Project Mogul, which involved high altitude balloons meant
to detect sound wavegenerated by Soviet atom bomb tests and
ballistic missiles. A second report, released in 1997, concluded
threports of alien bodies were likely a combination of innocently
transformed memories of military acciden
involving injured or killed personnel, and the recovery of
anthropomorphic dummies in military programs likProject High Dive
conducted in the 1950s.
Since the late 1990s the debate about Roswell has polarized with
several former pro-UFO researcheconcluding that the craft was,
indeed, part of a US military project and that it was, most likely,
some sort oweather balloon. But further evidence has emerged
notably a signed affidavit by Walter Haut, the RosweArmy Air Field
public affairs officer who had drafted the initial press release on
July 8, 1947. Haut says in thaffidavit -signed in 2002 that he saw
alien corpses and a craft and that he had been involved in a
militarcover up. Haut died in 2005.
The assassination of John F Kennedy
The 35th President of the United States was shot on Friday,
November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas at 12.30pmHe was fatally
wounded by gunshots while riding with his wife Jacqueline Bouvier
Kennedy in motorcade. The ten-month investigation of the Warren
Commission of 1963 to 1964, the United States Hous

that the President had been assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald
who was himself shot dead by Jack Rubwhile in police custody.
But doubts about the official explanation and the conclusion
that Oswald was the lone gunman firing from thTexas Book Depository
overlooking Dealey Plaza where Kennedy was hit surfaced soon after
the commissioreport. Footage of the motorcade taken by Abraham
Zapruder on 8mm film supported the growing belief that least four
shots were fired not the three that the Warren Commission claimed.
The moments of impa
recorded on the film also suggested that at least one of the
shots came from a completely different direction those supposedly
fired by Oswald evidence backed up by testimony of several eye
witnesses. Manbelieved that several shots were fired by gunmen
hiding behind a picket fence on a grassy knoll overlookinthe
plaza.
The assassination is still the subject of widespread speculation
and has spawned numerous conspiractheories, though none of these
has been proven. In 1979, the House Select Committee on
Assassination(HSCA) found both the original FBI investigation and
the Warren Commission Report to be seriously flaweThe HSCA also
concluded that there were at least four shots fired and that it was
probable that a conspiracexisted. However, later studies, including
one by the National Academy of Sciences, have called into
questiothe accuracy of the evidence used by the HSCA to support its
finding of four shots.
September 11, 2001
Thanks to the power of the web and live broadcasts on
television, the conspiracy theories surrounding thevents of 9/11
when terrorists attacked the World Trade Centre in New York and the
Pentagon Washington have surpassed those of Roswell and JFK in
traction. Despite repeated claims by al-Qaeda thit planned,
organized and orchestrated the attacks, several official and
unofficial investigations into thcollapse of the Twin Towers which
concluded that structural failure was responsible and footage of
the eventhemselves, the conspiracy theories continue to grow in
strength.
At the milder end of the spectrum are the theorists who believe
that the US government had prior warning othe attacks but did not
do enough to stop them. Others believe that the Bush administration
deliberateturned a blind eye to those warnings because it wanted a
pretext to launch wars in the Middle East to ushein another century
of American hegemony. A large group of people collectively called
the 9/11 Tru
Movement cite evidence that an airliner did not hit the Pentagon
and that the World Trade Centre could nohave been brought down by
airliner impacts and burning aviation fuel alone. This final group
points to videevidence which they claim shows puffs of smoke
so-called demolition squibs emerging from the TwTowers at levels
far below the aircraft impact zones and prior to the collapses.
They also believe that, on thday itself, the US air force was
deliberately stood down or sent on exercises to prevent
intervention that coulhave saved the lives of nearly 3,000
people.
Many witnesses including firemen, policemen and people who were
inside the towers at the time claim have heard explosions below the
aircraft impacts (including in basement levels) and before both the
collapseand the attacks themselves. As with the assassination of
JFK, the official inquiry into the events the 9/1Commission Report
is widely derided by the conspiracy community and held up as
further evidence tha9/11 was an inside job. Scientific journals
have consistently rejected these hypotheses.

Verbs -to be- Modal verbs all other verbs
initial statement I'm not very hungry. I can't drink soju. I
don't like chicken.
agreement using neither Neither am I. Neither can I. Neither do
I.
agreement using either I'm not either. I can't either. I don't
either.
Also, notice the position of the adverbs so, too, neither and
either. So and neither are both at thebeginning of the phrase. Too
and either are both at the end of the phrase.
NOTE:
The words "so" and "too" are often used in expressions of
positive agreement.
"Too" usually comes at the end of the sentence, and "so" at the
beginning.
Remember to use "question order" with so.
For example,
A: I'm in a hurry.B: So am I. / I am, too. / Me too.
A: I need to go to the bathroom.B: So do I. / I do, too. / Me
too.
A. I recommend giving the murderer a life sentence.B. So do I. /
I do, too. / Me too.
Negative Agreement
For negative agreement, use neither in place of "so," and either
in place of "too."
For example,
A: I'm not hungry.B: Neither am I. / I'm not either. / Me
neither.*
A: I don't have enough money anyway.
B: Neither do I. / I don't either. / Me neither.*
A. I dont agree with death penalty.B. Neither do I. / I dont
either. / Me neither.
These expressions can also be used in the second or third
person:
They're from Luxembourg.So are we. / We are too.
Todd doesn't like spaghetti.Neither does Louise. / Louise
doesn't either.*

REMEMBERTo communicate positive or negative AGREEMENT correctly,
you must REFLECT thAUXILIARY of the original statement in your
response. For example, if the original statement contains the veTO
BE in present tense, your response will have it, too. If the
original statement contains the simple past ofverb, your response
will contain the simple past AUXILIARY, or "DID". Study the
examples below:
