Текст аудирования:
DJ: And that was this week’s number one. You’re listening to Radio X. This is Jan Turner on Turner’s Turning World — the phone-in where the listeners decide what we are going to talk about. We’ve got our first caller on the line. It’s Hazel from Enfield. Hi there, Hazel.
Hazel: Hi Jan.
DJ: Okay, why have you called this morning, Hazel?
Hazel: Well, I wanted to talk about advertising on kids’ TV, There are lots of ads for toys and junk food and clothes. I don’t think it’s right.
DJ: Uhuh? Why’s that?
Hazel: Well, my two boys believe the advertisements and they want everything they see. Then they ask me and ask me to buy junk food and the latest trainers. It’s terrible, we don’t have much money, but I have to buy expensive things for them.
DJ: So ... your children see an advertisement, and you have to buy things? I don’t understand. Why do you ‘have totask buy expensive things for them?
Hazel: Because all their friends at school have them and I don’t want them to be different. If their friends have ...
DJ: Excuse me, can I just say that it’s a parent’s job to say ‘no’ sometimes? And to sometimes turn off the TV? We’ve got our next caller on the line. Hi — is that Rupert?
Rupert: Yes, it is.
DJ: And what’s your point, Rupert?
Rupert: I work in the advertising business and our research shows that children like adverts. The ads give the children information and they can use it when they spend their pocket money.
DJ: You can’t be serious! The adverts are there because companies want to sell things! They are not to ‘inform’ children!
Rupert: Yes, they are. The advertisers want to educate the kids who are...
DJ: I’d just like to say that I don’t think many parents will agree with you — ads are about selling, not education. If you’re listening and you have an opinion on this or anything else, call me on 0200 8374 873. Lettasks go to our next caller, Ian, who wants to talk about tabloid newspapers.

Jan 2) I’m not sure that I understand.
I understand. 3) What do you mean?
Ian I mean that the quality of the reporting is shocking!
Jan 4) That’s very interesting but why is it ‘shocking’?
Ian All the stories are about soap opera stars and gossip — they don’t write about real news and …
Jan 5) Excuse me, can I just say that say that the tabloids are read by millions of people every day. It seems to me that they can’t all be wrong.
Ian 6) Well, yes sure, the trouble/truth is is, lots of people smoke too, but it isn’t a good idea.
Jan 7) I’m sorry, but I don’t understand your argument. You can’t die from reading a tabloid paper.
Ian 8) How shall I put it? What I mean is, although the tabloids are popular, the quality papers are more educational.
Jan I’m sorry, I didn’t 9) catch that. 10) Can you repeat it, please?
Ian Yes, I said that quality papers educate people.
Jan Don’t be silly! People don’t read to be educated! They want to be entertained by what they read. Let’s go to the phones.
