M: That is it. I know that it is smaller than you wanted, but it is one of the nicest apartments in the building.
W: Does it have three bedrooms?
M: No. There are two. The master bedroom is quite spacious. Maybe you could let the children share the larger room, and you and your husband could use the smaller one.
W: I suppose that I could do that.
M: A three-bedroom apartment will be difficult to find.
W: Yes, I know. Believe me, I have been looking for over a week. The few three-bedroom apart- ment that I have found are either extremely expensive or the owner won’t allow children as tenants.
M: Well, the owner allows two children in this apartment complex.
W: Aren’t you the owner?
M: No, I am the manager. I live here, too, on the first floor of this building.
W: Oh. That’s nice. Then if anything gets broken?
M: Just leave a note on my door.
W: You said that the rent would be $300 a month. Does that include any of the utilities?
M: Yes. It includes gas. Your furnace and stove are gas, so, as you can imagine, your other utilities, electric and water, are quite expensive.
W: This sounds better. But before I sign a lease, I would like my husband to see it.
M: Why not stop by with him this evening?
W: But he doesn’t get off work until five.
M: It doesn’t matter. Come by at six. I will still be in the office. I am sure you are eager to move from the hotel, and if we get the paper work out of the way tonight, you can move in tomorrow.
W: Oh, that would be fine.
M: Sue, how do you decide what time to show a program?
W: Well, it depends on the program. We look for different types of programs for different times of the day. For example, at breakfast time, we show short news and interview program. People don’t watch for long in the morning, so everything must be very short.
M: And what happens later?
W: Well, we plan programs around what people are usually doing. We have to think about prime time.
M: Prime time--what’s that, exactly?
W: Prime time is the time when the largest number of people is watching TV. In this country, that’s from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. Most people have come home from work and they’re relaxed.
M: And, what programs do you show then?
W: We usually show new TV series which most people like. You see, before 9 p.m., we try to show programs for everybody.
M: Oh, I see.
W: And we also need to think about the ratings.
M: Can you tell us about that?
W: Well, the ratings tell us how many people are watching each program.
M: Oh, how do you know that? You can’t ask everybody!
W: No, of course not. Well, most TV stations buy information from an audience research company. They ask a small number of people -- perhaps a few hundred-- to keep a record of what they watch. Then that gives them an idea of what everybody watches.
M: Are ratings very important?
W: Very important. Our television company is commercial. We make money by selling advertising time. If our ratings are high, we can ask a higher price for advertising time. So we’re always trying to increase our ratings.
M: So in a way, the advertisers Control what you show on television.
W: Um, not directly, but in a way, yes.
