TELEVISION
1/Do you like watching television ?
2/How many hours do you usually watch television a day?
3/What progammme do you usually watch on television?
4/ What are the most popular shows on TV in your country?
5/What are some advantages of television?
6/What are some of the disadvantages of television?
1 Do you like watching TV?
I don’t get time really to watch TV and I don’t like the fact that you have no choice about what to watch, so no I would say I don’t really like watching normal TV, I much prefer streaming something on my iPad and watching
it when I like
2 How often do you watch TV?
I’d say maybe only a few times a month when there is a good football match on I prefer watching football on
TV with other people around because it’s a great atmosphere, but if it’s a normal TV show I will just watch it alone at home on my tablet
3 What kind of TV programmes do you like to watch?
I like dramas and thrillers I don’t really like anything that is not set in the real world, so I’m not a big fan of sci-fi or fantasy, although I have been getting in to the latest season of Game of Thrones I also really like to watch documentaries about military history, especially anything to do with the Second World War
4 What are the most popular TV shows in your country?
The two most popular genres are soaps and reality TV Soaps like Coronation Street have always been popular because people get to know the characters really well and the story lines can be quite gripping I’ve no idea why reality TV is popular, I can’t stand it, all those C-list celebrities trying to become popular again I would rather watch paint dry, to be honest
5 Do you like watching TV shows from other countries?
Yes, most of the programmes I watch are from the United States Networks like HBO and Netflix have the biggest budgets and as a result can make some really high quality shows I don’t think Game of Thrones could
be made without a huge budget and America is probably the only country that can make a TV show on that scale
6 Has the internet affected your viewing habits?
Absolutely, I watch most TV shows on the internet now, rather than a normal TV There are so many streaming services like Netflix offering on-demand TV and it suits me to be able to watch what I want, when I want I also like to binge watch a series of TV shows, just watch a whole series in a day or two rather than waiting for the next episode
7 What is your favourite TV show?
There was an American show called Fargo that I really loved It was an adaptation of a film made about 15 years ago The plot lines and characters were really interesting and the dialogue was well written
Unfortunately, there has only been one season of it so far, so I have to wait another year to see the next season
8 What was your favourite show when you were a child?
I was a bit of a strange child because I didn’t really like cartoons like most of the other kids But there were a few shows I loved like The A-Team, Knight Rider and Air Wolf They were so cool and always had great action scenes I was a bit obsessed with violent action films when I was kid When I think about them though they weren’t really all that violent compared to shows these days, I don’t think one person was ever killed in any of those programmes
Trang 46/When did you first become interested in sports?
7/How often do you participate in sports?
8/What equipment do you need for your favourite sport?
1 Do you play any sports?
Not as much as I should I’m really busy with my job these days, so I don’t get the chance to do as many sports
as I would like I try to play basketball on Saturdays for a couple or hours and I occasionally play golf
2 Have you played volleyball for long?
Since I was about 10 years old I remember playing a computer game about volleyball when I was about 10 and
it made me obsessed with the sport From then on I played volleyball every day until I went to university and
then other things took priority, but I regret not maintaining it because it was something I loved doing
3 Do you watch sport on TV?
Football is my favourite sport to watch on TV I’m terrible at football but I love watching it on TV,
especially big games like the Champions League I follow Liverpool Football Club and so do a few of my friends, so we normally go the pub every weekend and watch whoever Liverpool are playing and a few of the other big games in the Premiership
4 What is the most popular sport in your country?
In my country there are two dominant sports Gaelic Football and Hurling Gaelic is a little like soccer but you are allowed to pick up the ball with your hands and you can kick the ball over the bar for one point or in the goal for 3 points Hurling is played with sticks and a smaller ball and involves hitting the ball over the bar or in the goal Both of them are really fast-paced and a bit brutal at times You can tackle someone much harder than you can in soccer
5 How do people in your country stay fit?
We are blessed with beautiful countryside and a nice temperate climate so most people either go running or walking Lots of young people play field sports, but more and more people are joining gyms Gyms have really took off recently as people worry more and more about their appearance I think it has much more to do with how good people look rather than actually keeping fit
6 Is it important for children to play sports?
Sport not only keeps them healthy, but it also teaches them discipline and keeps them out of trouble For instance, in my school the kids who were dedicated to sport also achieved the highest grades in school and went
on to good universities where they continued to work hard
