Television in modern life

How do people usually answer to questions like "What are you going to do tonight?" or "What are you doing at the weekend?" In other words, how do people spend their free time? Some twenty or thirty years ago the usual answers used to be:

"We're going to the theatre (or to the cinema)" or "We're going to a party" or "We're having some friends round". Now you very often hear "We're going to stay at home and watch the telly!" A first-rate colour TV set has become an ordinary thing in the household today, and a DVD player is quickly becoming one.

Modern television offers the viewers several programmes on different channels. In addition to regular newscasts you can see plays and films, operas and ballets, and watch all kinds of contests, quizzes, and sporting events. You can also get a lot of useful information on the educational channel. A good serial (perhaps, a detective story or a screen version of a classical novel) can keep the whole family in front of the telly for days, and don't we spend hours and hours watching our favourite football or hockey team in an important international event?

Television most definitely plays a very important part in people's lives. But is this a good thing or a bad one? Haven't we become lazier because of television? Don't we go out less often than we used to? Don't we read less?

Questions:

1. How often do you watch TV?

2. What are you favourite programmes?

3. Which is your favourite channel?

4. The average Russian teenager spends about 20 hours a week in front of the TV-set. What about you?

5. Why is TV often called "the window on the world"?

6. Do you agree that television has the power to educate?

7. What do you think of commercials? Do they annoy you?

8. Do you enjoy watching "soaps"?

9. Some people say that television kills conversation. Do you agree?

10. Do you use TV intelligently?

V. Прочитайте текст, запишите заголовок и план текста на английском языке.

One of the most wonderful discoveries made by human beings is radio. It is the wireless transmission of signals or sounds through the space. This invention was the discovery of the century, though people think it is getting outdated now because of the internet.

One major and indisputable advantage of the radio is a low price. It is cheaper to buy a radio-receiver than PC or TV-set. Besides, radio is a source of the weaker radiation, than other media devices. For an instance, the average power of radiation of TV-set is 40-50 mR/h, but a receiver radiation is just 15 mR/h.

In addition to these advantages, the advertising on the air is not widespread so much as opposed to the television or the Internet. Moreover, radio is a kind of the link that might be provided almost everywhere. Usually it is used when a TV signal has no possibility to pass. Radio communication is often used during some hostilities or used by people who work underground.

In spite of the fact that radio communication is simple and cheap, it has some obvious disadvantages. For example, the information couldn’t be supported by the picture. Pictures help us to percept information more intensive and sometimes this data might be useless without any images.

Furthermore, people who have some problems with audio perception couldn’t get information wireless. There is a lack of the demand for radio receivers. We use them to listen to the music on the way. It is not popular anymore, because receiving set is replaced by the Internet nowadays. The equipment has lost its popularity, because almost all of us have laptops or smart phones with access to the Internet connection.

Anyway, it is something worth using. Many legendary scientists have worked on the radio creation, including Russian physicist A. Popov. It is still one of the most powerful parts of mass media systems.
