答案 Studies I’m a student at Melbourne University. I study computing. I’ve always been interested in computers—ever since I was a kid. Well, as I said, I’ve always liked using computers, for schoolwork and for fun. It’s also an expanding industry and I think I’ll be able to get a good job and develop a worthwhile career in this field. I enjoy programming. It’s so much fun—at least for me! I think I’m a creative person and I enjoy seeing a programme come to life on screen. I think that the most difficult thing for me is learning about the more technical side of computing—how computers and their components actually work. Most of my classmates find it fairly easy, but not me. Like I said, it’s an expanding industry and I’m sure that an increasing number of computer experts will be needed in the future, doing everything from making sure that data systems work properly, through programming robots, to creating computer games. Television I watch very little TV—perhaps between 4 and 5 hours a week. I spend much more time on computers. For example, I hardly ever watch TV news—I get almost all my news from the Internet. I watch films on TV rather than on the Internet—the picture quality is generally much better. I like horror films most of all, but I also like comedies. Some American comedies are very good. They often feature situations that happen in real life. My girlfriend likes them too, so we sometimes watch them together. I like them because you don’t need to think to much—they are very relaxing. Yes, I suppose it is. Most people seem to watch a couple of hours of TV each day. However, there are many people who don’t watch TV or watch it very little. They think that TV is a waste of time. Watching TV is certainly more popular nowadays than it was even 10 years ago. There are more channels and the programmes are much more varied and lively than they were. Not much. We talk much more about computer games and sports. My girlfriend talks about TV programmes sometimes, but as I haven’t seen—or even heard of—the programmes she talks about, I can’t really have a conversation with her about them. The media Many people do, but I think that more people get the news from TV and newspapers. They prefer TV because it offers pictures as well as spoken commentary and they like newspapers because they can take them anywhere and they offer more in-depth stories. People often listen to the radio at home—maybe while doing housework or gardening—and taxi drivers almost always listen to the radio whilst driving. They like to listen out for traffic reports. They mainly report on what’s happening in politics, the .business world and sport. There are usually some stories about the weather, disasters and crime. I think that a lot of the stories are sensationalised, so I don’t pay much attention to them. In newspapers, there are cartoons, competitions, reviews of products and advertisements. There are far too many advertisements, in my opinion. There’s rarely a page without at least one. The reviews of products are often not very informative. They seem to contain more opinions than facts. If I think about mobile phones, for example, most of the information is about the colours and shape of the phone than about the technical specifications that can tell you which model is really better. I do like the competitions, but I have never won anything. I pay attention to the national news most. International news doesn’t mean anything to me and it just seems to be about wars and politicians visiting other politicians—boring! The local news is also boring, in my opinion.
