Task 3

Questions 21-25

The people below all want to choose a TV programme to watch. There are descriptions of eight programmes. Decide which programme would be the most suitable for the following people. For questions 21-25, mark the correct letter (A-H) on your answer sheet.

21. The Robertson family love quiz programmes, especially general knowledge ones. They can’t watch after 9 o’clock, as the twins have to be up early for school.

 

22. The Davidsons live in Scotland, and work very hard - they only watch TV at weekends. They enjoy programmes about the natural world, and about different aspects of wildlife in other countries.

 

23. Mr and Mrs Maison are keen to keep up with the news and what’s happening worldwide. Their favourites are current affairs discussion programmes, which they often stay up late to watch.

 

24. Ann and John love adventure programmes -especially ones about heroes in past times, with plenty of action and not too much romance.

 

25. Mr and Mrs Jackson are not very keen on quiz programmes but will watch anything to do with sport.

 

A Any Sporting Ideas? Not the quiz programme you expect from the name, perhaps. This late-night question-and-answer series takes viewers’ suggestions for improving different sports, and experiments to see whether they would work or not. Watch out for plenty of ideas for deciding if the football crossed the line or not!
B The very, very wild show The quality of wildlife photography is so high these days that it’s easy to forget how dangerous it can be. One cameraman was almost killed while filming the episode to be shown this Sunday, in which we find ourselves face to face with an Indian tiger which seems to be about one metre away.
C Big Sister Can see you! The latest ‘reality’ show begins a six-week run on Saturday, hoping to continue the success story of this new form of real-life soap opera. This time the contestants are all women, and they’re not locked up in a house or left on a tropical island. Their adventures begin when ... but why don’t you see for yourselves? Recommended.
d We Ask the Questions The studio audience is carefully selected, and they certainly make the ‘experts’ work hard in response to their questions. There’s a wide range of subjects under discussion, from heroes of sport to the news of the day! It’s just a shame it’s on so late at night.
E Who let the Dogs In? The latest programme in the mid-week series about Europe’s changing landscape looks at the continent’s newest wild animal - the dog! It sounds harmless enough, but these animals are very different from those you take for a walk in the local park. Fascinating, but not for viewers with weak stomachs.
F Ask Me Another Many people were surprised when this programme replaced the very popular early-evening film quiz, but I viewers seem to like the wider range of subjects and the unusual format, especially the part where I contestants are given the answer and have to guess the question.
G Marathon No, not another sports programme, but the story of the Greek soldier who ran 42 kilometres after a battle in 490 ВС, to deliver an important message. It’s colourful and beautiful to look at, with fantastic views of the landscape, but above all the action never stops, and it’s very, very exciting.
H Pop Goes Politics How do politicians of the past compare with those of today? In this clever, but not too serious programme, we see rare pieces of film showing famous names from the last century, often doing things they probably regretted afterwards. We don’t learn very much that’s new, but it’s very funny.
