Unit 3. What's the news?. Lesson 7. Why the Internet? - номер 1, страница 76.

Условие.

1. Today it's hard to imagine our lives without the Internet. Here is what two British teenagers, Ben and Sue, say about the Internet and its role in their life.

1) Do Ben and Sue value the Internet more than other media?

The Internet is absolutely amazing! On the Internet I can look for information on anything I like. Compared to the radio and television, there is much more information I can find online. Compared to magazines, for example, the information on the Internet is updated¹ more often! I use the Internet for homework, reports or projects. The Internet is much more interactive while the radio and the press are just boring! On the Internet you can connect with the whole world! I, for example, can talk to my overseas friends because I have my own e-mail address. I can also play games, find out the latest news or read about films, sport or celebrities. The Internet has more fun than any other medium. The Internet is definitely better! It has everything you can get from the press, television or the radio and much more!

Ben

I'm afraid I have to disagree with the people who say that the Internet is better than any other medium. Yes, okay, it's good but if we never read books, magazines or newspapers, if we do not watch TV or listen to the radio, our life wouldn't be so interesting! The Internet is wonderful if you look for information. It is great for doing projects and research. It is useful for homework and revision as well. But ... newspapers or magazines can't stop working suddenly ... Plus there is something special about getting a magazine you really wanted. What can be better than sitting down with it and reading it in peace and quiet? Also, if I stare at the computer for a long time, it hurts my eyes!!

Sue

2) What arguments in favour and against the Internet do Ben and Sue give? Which of their arguments can be given about the other mass media?

3) Listen to Ted's opinion. What other arguments for the Internet and other media does Ted give? (listening for detail; note taking)

4) Whose arguments do you agree with? Why?

I agree with ...'s arguments. He/She said that ...

But I have to disagree with ... who said that ...

Решение 2.

1) Ценят ли Бен и Сью Интернет больше, чем другие средства массовой информации?

Ответ:

Ben values the Internet more than other media. He calls it "absolutely amazing" and "definitely better", and considers radio and press "boring". Sue, on the other hand, does not value the Internet more than other media. She believes that life would be less interesting without books, magazines, or TV, and she appreciates the special feeling of reading a physical magazine.

Бен ценит Интернет больше, чем другие медиа. Он называет его "абсолютно удивительным" и "определенно лучше", а радио и прессу считает "скучными". Сью, напротив, не ценит Интернет больше других медиа. Она считает, что жизнь была бы менее интересной без книг, журналов или телевизора, и она ценит особое чувство от чтения бумажного журнала.

2) Какие аргументы за и против Интернета приводят Бен и Сью? Какие из их аргументов можно отнести к другим средствам массовой информации?

Ответ:

	Arguments in favour of the Internet (Аргументы в пользу Интернета)	Arguments against the Internet (Аргументы против Интернета)
Ben (Бен)	You can find information on anything; there is more information and it's updated more often; it's more interactive; you can connect with people, play games, find out news. It's more fun.	None (Никаких)
Sue (Сью)	It's good and wonderful for finding information; it's great for projects, research, homework, and revision.	Life would be less interesting without other media; staring at the computer for a long time hurts the eyes.

Arguments that can also apply to other mass media are: finding information, being useful for homework and research (books, newspapers), finding out the latest news (TV, radio, newspapers), and being fun (TV, magazines).

Аргументы, которые также могут относиться к другим средствам массовой информации: поиск информации, польза для домашних заданий и исследований (книги, газеты), узнавание последних новостей (ТВ, радио, газеты) и развлечение (ТВ, журналы).

3) Послушайте мнение Теда. Какие еще аргументы в пользу Интернета и других медиа приводит Тед?

Ответ:

Для ответа на вопрос недостаточно данных.

4) С чьими аргументами вы согласны? Почему?

Ответ:

I agree more with Sue's arguments. I think the Internet is very useful for school and talking to friends, just like Ben said. But I also love reading a real book or a magazine. It feels more relaxing. And Sue is right, my eyes also get tired from looking at the screen too much. So, I think it's best to use both the Internet and other things like books.

Я больше согласен с аргументами Сью. Я думаю, что Интернет очень полезен для школы и общения с друзьями, как сказал Бен. Но я также люблю читать настоящую книгу или журнал. Это более расслабляет. И Сью права, мои глаза тоже устают, если слишком долго смотреть на экран. Поэтому я считаю, что лучше всего использовать и Интернет, и другие вещи, например, книги.
