d) You'll hear three opinions about the British television. Which of these belongs to a teacher, a pupil, and a politician? (у доски читают учащиеся).

- What's their opinion on the following? Fill in the chart.

1) Television is a great way to learn. It's easier than reading a book. I wish we could watch more television at school. But on the whole, most tally programmes are rubbish, too serious. Television should be entertaining, you know, fun. I wish there were more police shows and sports. And more adverts, too.

2) British television is the best in the world. We have a lot of variety and good quality. We try to entertain and educate. That's why so many British television programmes are exported. We need more channels and more broadcasting. Up to 20 hours a day, for example.

3) The kids come home and turn on the box. Parents have no control. And some of the programmes are really violent. There are terrible problems with reading and writing. Kids don't read books any more. They spend a lot of time just sitting and watching the telly.
