TV Programmes (Reading)
The people below all want to watch a TV programme. After them, there are descriptions of eight TV programmes. Decide which programme would be the most suitable for each person.
1. Ivan and Anna like to keep up to date with what’s happening in the world and enjoy seeing interviews with politicians and other people. They prefer to watch programmes which last about 30 minutes.
2. Fatima likes watching comedy programmes which last about half an hour. She enjoys watching a series where she can follow what the characters are doing from one episode to another.
3. Rosa enjoys pop music and films and wants to watch interviews with popular celebrities. She likes programmes which are a mixture of interviews and live music.
4. Grace is interested in travelling and she likes watching documentaries about different parts of the world. She especially enjoys programmes which show animals and birds.
5. William is keen on general knowledge and likes watching quizzes to see how many questions he can answer. He prefers those which have questions on lots of different subjects.
A. Find out about the life of jazz musician, Bert Randall, in this hourlong documentary which shows him performing live concerts during his life. There are interviews with members of his family and people he worked with.
B. There are three half-hour episodes of the popular soap South Street on our TVs every week. There’s lots going on this week when Cathy returns from her trip round the world to find Felicity has moved into her flat and all Cathy’s things have disappeared. She is not pleased and shows her feelings.
C. This is the weekly chance to try to get a better score than the celebrities in the studio, who range from pop musicians to politicians. As usual Billie Flannagan spends a half hour asking the two teams the questions. They need to be experts in a wide range of topics from music to animals to international news.
D. Robert Burroughs first visited the Amazon rainforest 40 years ago. Since then, he has travelled all around the world showing us amazing scenery, animals and different ways of living. Now he returns with a series about the Amazon and we see again the amazing wildlife of this beautiful area.
E. Find out about the latest news, both international and local, with Aaron Willis every day between 6.00 and 6.30 in the evening. His interviews with those in the news, whether they are politicians or journalists, always get to the point of a story.
F. "On the Way" is a short comedy film made 30 years ago. The actors were unknown at the time but they have since become famous. The main character, Zak, decides to travel to India but he takes a variety of animals with him on the journey. They soon become a problem.
G. Every Saturday evening between 8.30 nd 9.30, Kevin Connery presents an hour of fun and entertainment. As usual in the new series, there is music and chat with well-known stars from the world of film, music or comedy. Each guest is interviewed and then one of them performs their latest song live.
H. Joel and Charlie return for another series of "The Shop". They work in a supermarket where things seem to go wrong every day. This series should be as funny as the last, with a new manager in the shop and some unexpected events in each 30-minute programme.
