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 organisation responsible for it.
W: What do the initials BBC stands 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 purposes, and or 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 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 colour. 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.
Questions 13 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
13. What can we learn about television in London?
14. What can we learn about the BBC television?
15. What’s the reason that some people don’t like TV?
选项
A、It is a private company.
B、It is controlled by the government.
C、It cannot be used for government propaganda.
D、It can be used by private individuals and firms.
答案
C
解析
对话中提到,the government can’t use the BBC for propaganda purposes,C)是对该句的同义转述,故为答案。A)与对话中的It’s a public corporation相矛盾;B)与对话中的It isn’t controlled by the govemment相矛盾;D)与That means that…can privateindividuals or firms.相矛盾。选项中的表达一般在对话中都会有所提及,故应主要听其表达是否与对话一致。
