American
Radio and Television
Mass media play an important part in the life of the society. They
inform, educate and entertain people. They also influence the way people look
at the world and make them change their views. “After all,” say American media
men, -- “news is not what happens – it is what you see or read about in mass
media.” In other words, mass media mould public opinion.
Millions of Americans in their spare time watch TV and read newspapers.
The daily papers dominates family life at breakfast, TV dominates the life of the family most of the time. The TV set is not just a piece of furniture. It is “one of the family”.
It is also a habit forming drug impossible to resist. The radio is turned on
most of the time, creating a permanent background noise. It does not interfere
with your activities. You can listen to the radio while doing some work about
the house, reading a book or driving a car.
On the radio one can hear music, plays, news and various commentary and discussions
called forums. At a forum several authorities exchange views on social,
economic and politic problems, as well as on books of common interest. A number
of sides are represented so that the listeners can hear various opinions. A
particular feature of the American radio is soap opera. It is a sentimental
serial drama dealing with domestic problems and meant for housewives. Soap
opera is usually broadcast every day. Most people find soap opera boring.
There is a lot of advertising on American TV and radio. Some of the TV
and radio stations are owned by big corporations or individuals. The owners can
advertise whatever they choose. To advertise their goods commercials firms buy
TV and radio time. So most of radio and TV time is taken up by advertisements.
The firms also sponsor shows and programmes that make people buy their goods. For
instance, to attend a show or to take part in a quiz programme you may have to
send to the studio the required number of
empty cartons, boxes or wrappings (depending on what product the sponsoring
firm is selling). People are attracted by such programmes not only because they
provide entertainment. A valuable prize is usually promised for the correct
answer to the main question, such as a video or radio cassette recorder or a
stereo music centre. Americans are very optimistic. Their optimism makes them
believe in luck and buy things which they may not need at all. The sponsoring
firm makes a great profit on such programmes. The more people attend the show,
the greater is the profit of the firm.
Advertising promotes business and benefits businessmen but often annoy
the general public. The play you are watching on TV may be interrupted several
times by an appeal to use a new perfume or detergent, or drink a certain kind
of beer. Though Americans are used to everything being advertised, watching
such programmes gives one a headache instead of providing relaxation. Sometimes
the patience of the viewer snaps and turns off the TV set without ever learning
who murdered the innocent old lady, hijacked the plane, forged the cheques,
poisoned the wife of the millionaire, kidnapped his daughter or committed some
other crime.
But it is hardly fair to say that
American mass media do not try to raise the cultural level of the people or to
develop their artistic taste and with great professional skill. Radio and
television bring into millions of homes not only entertainment and news but
also cultural and educational programmes. Radio stations broadcast about ten
thousand hours of musical programmes weekly. Many programmes are made up almost
entirely of classical music.
There is a lot of education both on
the radio and on television. For instance, you can take a TV course in history,
political economy, management, and banking and in many other subjects or learn
a foreign language by radio. Educational TV films and programmes are shown in
schools and colleges as a part of the curriculum.
The opinion that all commercial
programmes are of little artistic value can also be disputed.

God created this wonderful world
He created a man. He wanted to see the man
wise, honest, hard-working, open

-
Listen to the text about classmates. After listening
you must say: “Was the boy a real friend?” Take the earphones and begin to listen.
There was a plump boy. He studied at school and children called him “tuhtiy”
His name was Klaus. During the breaks he was alone. But he studied very
well and was good at all subjects. He wants to have a friend but he hasn’t any
friends. Another boy from this class noticed this poor boy. His name was Gerd .

was very glad and agreed. Gerd said the condition to Klaus. The boy must take
the orange if he want to be his friend.
Next morning two friends decided go to the cinema but they hadn’t money.

Klaus did it.
One day Klaus wanted to play football with his classmates but Gerd said
that he was very fat. Klaus was upset.
Next time Gerd proposed Klaus to buy some cars in the shop but they had
no money. Gerd said to steal them. Klaus did it but one of the cars fell down
to the floor, Gerd ran away and the shop-assistant called the police. The

brief information about one of your local newspapers. What things make it
popular among the readers? Use the prompts of Ex. 7b, p. 16.
b) Some
interesting facts about British newspapers (handouts):
The British are
the most voracious newspaper readers in the world.
They read
newspapers at breakfast: they walk to the bus reading a newspaper: they read a
newspaper on the bus, as they go to work; and on the way back home they are
engrossed in on evening newspaper.
If you ask an
Englishman about the press in his country he will almost certainly begin
talking about the morning daily and Sunday national newspapers. The dominating
position of the national daily morning papers is due to the smallness of the
country. A paper printed in London around midnight can be at any breakfast
table in England the next morning all over the country most people read the
same newspapers.
The national
dailies are usually classed as either quality or popular. The number of
newspapers sold in relation to the population is higher in Britain than in any
other country except Sweden.

Abraham Lincoln’s Last Days
Abraham
Lincoln was the President of the United States from 1861 to
1865. Lincoln led the Union during the Civil War and worked toward
the end of slavery
in the United States.
The Civil War was a hard time for Lincoln. He had to make important
decisions continuously and he slept little. He worried more than he
should and may have been depressed.
After the Civil War, one evening in early 1865, Lincoln told a
friend: “About ten days ago, I had a nightmare. In my dream, I heard
people crying and breathing heavily. Then
I saw a large table, and
there was a dead body lying on it. Soldiers were guarding the corpse.
I asked who the person was, and a guard answered: “It’s the American
President. He was killed by an assassin.”
A few weeks later, Lincoln had another strange dream. In the morning, he called
his government to a special meeting. “I called you to give you a warning,” he said. “You will have bad news
soon.” That night, President Lincoln was at Ford’s Theater to see a play.
There, while watching the show, he was shot. He was alive for a few more hours, but died at the
next morning, April 15, 1865.
Since then, many people believe that President Lincoln has turned into a ghost, and he is still living in the
White House. Visitors have seen the ghost of Lincoln walking in the rooms. Nowadays, you can take tours in the
White
House, and if you are lucky (or unlucky), you may have a chance to see a glimpse of this famous
president.
