Answer:

1999

Explanation:

Lance Armstrong is a very interesting and very controversial person in the world of the sports, especially in his discipline, the cycling. When he started with cycling in the early 1990's Armstrong was showing nice potential, managing to win several tours, and parts of the Tour de France. Than he got a terrible news as he was diagnosed with testicular cancer. Luckily he managed to survive and returned to cycling. In the year of 1999, Armstrong won his first Tour de France, and after that he was dominating Tour de France for several years. Little that the other's knew that he was actually doping and that was the primary reason why he managed to dominate so easily. In 2012, Armstrong was stripped of his medals as it was officially confirmed that he was using substances that are not allowed. While this is very bad from sporting perspective, Armstrong actually became a hero, as he used his money and reputation in order to create centers for people who have cancer, and raised very big sum of money for the people who have this disease and for their curing.

Resumen corto del cuento el armario de tomas Mann
vesna_86 [32]
El cuentro El armario de Thomas Mann narra la historia de Albrecht van der Qualen, un viajero solitario y taciturno el cual no repara en detalles minúsculos de la vida ni le gusta saber en qué ciudad, día o estación se encuentra.La historia comienza cuando Albrecht se despierta de un sueño fugaz en un tren, desorientado. Cuenta como no sabe dónde se encuentra y el placer que esto le proporciona. Al darse cuenta que tal vez pueda estar en una parte de Alemania, Albrecht se baja del tren en búsqueda de un lugar para dormir. Se dirige a una posada gerenciada por una extraña anciana, quien le muestra la habitación en donde se estará quedando. Dicha habitación solo consta de una cama y una armario, lo cual era suficiente para Albrecht. En un punto de la noche, Albrecht se da cuenta que en el armario vive una criatura humana femenina totalmente desnuda, que empieza a contarle historias. El narrador da a entender que Albrecht nunca se mudó de esa posada, ya que había sido encantado por la criatura.
