Exercise N2.(Упражнение на аудирование)

Teacher: Listen to the information about broadcasting companies in different countries. Fill in the table with the names of broadcasting companies. Which of them is your favourite? Why?

Nowadays broadcasting companies have become symbols of their countries.

Over 99 per cent of British homes have a TV and the average British watches the "box" 26 hours a week. BBC (or the British Broadcasting Corporation) is a state company. Its two channels BBC1 and BBC2 do not show adverts. BBCI broadcasts popular programmes (the news, sports programmes, shows, children's programmes and soaps). BBC2  shows TV plays, classical concerts, foreign films.

Americans also love watching TV. American CNN (or Cable News Network) broadcasts only news but is popular all over the world.

CBC (or Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) can be seen or heard almost anywhere in the country. Thе company broadcasts in English and in French. It broadcasts the news, shows, films and other popular programmes.

At the moment there are two state channels on Russian TV: ОRT and RTR. They broadcast different programmes ( the news and shows, soap and children's programmes, recent and foreign films, sports programmes). They can be seen anywhere in the country. There are several other channels on Russian TV. One of them is KULTURA. It shows special programmes: cultural news, Russian and foreign classical films, the best performances, classical concerts, talk shows on culture and education. This channel is getting more and more popular.

Учащиеся заполняют таблицу на основании услышанной с аудиокассеты информации. Задание проверяется учителем, после чего вызывается один человек к доске заполнить  таблицу  на подготовленном  плакате.

People use different Mass Media according to their interests. Your task is to write advantages and disadvantages of this media. You have 5 minute to do this task. Work together and be friendly with each other.  

 Time is out. Are you ready? If you’ve done it.  Let’s see what advantages and disadvantages they have. Who wants to read it.
