El Señor Borja se preocupa porque (el gas natural es un tesoro boliviano / el gobierno boliviano va a exportar el gas natural.)

Escucha la entrevista y subraya la palabra o frase que mejor completa la oración. LUCÍA LEVANTE: Buenos días, señores y señoras. Yo soy Lucía Levante y tenemos en el estudio al Profesor Miguel Ángel Borja, historiador y especialista en América Latina. Hoy nos va a hablar de su nuevo libro, La guerra del gas en Bolivia, el cual trata de la polémica sobre el gas natural y los derechos de los campesinos en Bolivia. Bienvenido, profesor Borja. PROFESOR BORJA: Gracias, Lucía. LUCÍA LEVANTE: Bueno, ¿podría explicarnos por qué está el gas natural en el centro de esta lucha por los derechos de los bolivianos? PROFESOR BORJA: Sí, claro. Bolivia tiene la reserva de gas natural libre más grande de Sudamérica, sin embargo, es uno de los países más pobres de toda Latinoamérica. El problema obvio es que la mayoría de los bolivianos no se benefician de este tesoro natural. Y bueno, cuando el gobierno boliviano decidió exportar el gas natural hacia México y los Estados Unidos, el pueblo sólo veía que los políticos se harían más ricos y la gente continuaría tan pobre como siempre. LUCÍA LEVANTE: Entonces, ¿esa decisión sobre el gas fue como la gota que colmó la copa? PROFESOR BORJA: Eso es. La explicación última para el levantamiento masivo y el derrocamiento del presidente Sánchez de Lozada en el 2003 no fue el gas natural de por sí, sino la pobreza y la desigualdad en Bolivia. LUCÍA LEVANTE: Pues hablemos de ese momento. Dicen que ese levantamiento y el derrocamiento de Sánchez de Lozada representan un período histórico de importancia monumental para la lucha de los derechos humanos. What will be an ideal response?

The induction stage occurs during the first few years of teaching and is the time when teachers are socialized into the profession. During this time, the new teacher works for acceptance and attempts to become comfortable with teaching on a day-to-day basis. This may be a time when the beginning teacher finds a location or situation where he or she "fits." Teachers may move from building to

building or grade to grade until they find a situation where they feel most comfortable. The stress of beginning a new profession may be compounded by other events in individuals' lives. New teachers are usually adjusting from viewing themselves as students to having a full-time job and getting to know a new community. They are dealing with issues related to personal relationships, finances, and activities outside of work. It is an exciting time for new professionals, albeit a busy and stressful one. During this stage, many school districts provide support in the form of experienced mentor teachers to help induct new teachers into the profession. Mentors provide new teachers with a support system by acting as peer coaches, helping with planning, sharing ideas, introducing school routines, judging appropriateness of assignments, and explaining the context of specific teaching situations. Mentors ease new teachers into the profession and increase the possibilities that they will stay in the teaching field for a longer period of time. This is an important role for an experienced teacher because 40 to 50 percent of new teachers leave teaching after seven years or less. New teachers who receive appropriate mentoring during their first year or two in the profession continue to learn, grow, and develop more positive attitudes toward the profession. "It is an exciting time for new professionals, albeit a busy and stressful one." The above sentence is a statement of a. fact. b. opinion.
