Few football grounds boast a more prestigious
address than the Bernabeu, lies as it does on the 【M1】______
Castellana, the three-lining highway that runs through 【M2】______
the heart of Madrid.
As Real date back to 1902, when the Sociedad 【M3】______
Madrid Football Club was formed, it was not until
1920 when the club was granted permission to use the 【M4】______
Real (royal) prefix. Work began on the current
stadium in October 1944. The land had been purchased
on three million pesetas; construction costs totalled a 【M5】______
further 38 million, a staggered sum for the time. The 【M6】______
cost of the new stadium led to claims, never proving, 【M7】______
that Real had received financial aid from General
Franco' s government. Under Bernabeu's patronage,
Real Madrid became the greatest club side ever, won 【M8】______
the European Champions Cup a record five times in a
row between 1956 and 1960, a remarkable feat that
is unlikely to be challenged.
Madrid lies, quite literally, at the heart of
Spain. This is no small coincidence that the capital's 【M9】______
leading football club is seen like a symbol of all 【M10】______
things Spanish, just as FC Barcelona is a beacon for the independent Catalan spirit.

Sales last year were almost eight billion dollars. The company believes in opening many stores in busy areas of cities. For example, there are about thirty Starbucks stores in downtown Seattle. Starbucks sells more than just plain coffee. It started a whole coffee culture with its own special language and coffee workers called baristas. It sells many kinds of hot and cold coffee drinks, like White Chocolate Mocha and Frappuccino. It also sells music albums, coffee makers, food, and even books. But most of all, it sells the idea of being a warm and friendly place for people to sit, read or talk.
However, some people do not like the company's aggressive expansion. Faith Lapidus, a small coffee sell-er is taking the company to court. She says the way the company does business is illegal because it stops property owners from leasing stores to other coffee companies. She sees Starbucks as controlling the market and forcing out competition.
Nicolas O'Connell works for La Colombe, a coffee roasting company based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He says Starbucks has helped to educate people about coffee from many countries. But he criticizes the company for using machines more than people to make the coffee. Mr. O'Connell points out that the coffee culture is all about a hand-made product and interaction between people.
