Exercise 5 Read the text and translate the first two paragraphs. “Television in our life”
Television brings the world in our life. It helps us to understand people from other countries, to know their customs and traditions. One can find TV-programmes for children, teenagers, for sport fans and for people of various professional interests.
There are many kinds of television programmes and television channels in our country. The number of them increase constantly to meet all the tastes and needs of the viewers.
We can watch great events which will pass into history and famous people. Now people can get more information from various sources, find out different viewpoints, compare the positions and political programmes, and thus they can exercise one of the basic rights — the right to have full information about the events in their country and abroad. But to my mind people spend a lot of time before the television screens.
Television is the great entertainment and propaganda machine. From one hand it makes a lot to entertain people. On the other hand television can do some harm for certain people by the propaganda.
With the increasing number of TV-progammes the number of TV-viewers is also regularly increases. And their tastes are also increase and change. That is why from time to time some programmes are changing to another programmes. TV-channels try to attract viewers with the help of different shows, conserts or interesting programmes. Apart from their entertainment value, they provide useful topics of conversation.
Exercise 6 Read the text and write suitable heading to each paragraph
Exercise 7 Speak on the given topics: “My favourite TV programme is Planet Earth on Discovery Channel” or “The Animal Planet”
Exercise 8. Discuss the following questions with your partner. Do you think that TV programme gives us many useful and interesting information? Why?
