Part 2 «KINDS OF VIEWERS»
1. Read and translate the text:
WHAT KIND OF VIEWER ARE YOU?
Everyone has a different way of using television. Here are some types of television viewers.
The absent-minded
This type of viewer leaves the TV on all day. At this time, he eats, phones, reads or does his homework. For him television is really just background noise for his day.
The addict
He won’t give up TV for everything in the world. He watches the programmes in silence, with great concentration. Even during commercials, he won’t leave the screen for fear of losing a second of the programme. He usually chooses the programmes he wants to watch very carefully.
The bored
He puts the TV on when he’s got nothing better to do. For him TV is the last resort. He only watches it when it’s raining or when he is ill.
