M: You’re not still watching television, are you?
W: I enjoy your television--I’ll have to watch lots more while I’m here. The camera-work was very good. It looked like the work of real experts. Er... how long has television been going in Britain?
M: Oh, since 1936.
W: Ah!
M: Only in the London area at that time, though. There wasn’t any television during the Second World War. It started up again afterwards. The BBC was the organization responsible for it.
W: What do the initials BBC stand for?
M: British Broadcasting Corporation. It’s a public corporation. It isn’t controlled by the government, but it’s not a private company either. That means that the government can’t use the BBC for propaganda purpose, and nor can private individuals or firms.
W: Is there any advertising?
M: Not on the BBC, ITV gets its money from advertising, though.
W: ITV?
M: ITV stands for Independent Television. It was started in 1954 again in the London area. It covers the whole country now, though.
W: What do people think of the advertisements on television?
M: It depends. A lot of people think it’s a good idea because it means that television can pay its way--the ITV gets all its money from the advertisements.
W: What about the BBC?
M: You have to pay a TV license of £7 a year that goes to the BBC. Or £ 12 for color. A lot of people don’t like having to pay and wish that there were advertisements on the BBC too. On the other hand, other people hate TV advertising because they think it’s an insult to their intelligence.
选项
A、There was television, but not in London.
B、There was no television anywhere in England.
C、There was television, but only in the London area.
D、There was television somewhere in Britain.
答案
C
解析
What can we learn about television in London?
四个选项提到了television,London,因此判断此题大概跟电视在英国的发展情况有关。
对话中男士先引起话题:“你还在看电视吗?”女士回答,“我喜欢看电视”。接着又谈论起电视在英国的发展历史:1936年电视才开始兴起,但只是在伦敦(Only in the London area at that time)。因此本题选C)。
