Hello Felin,

BAD NEWS

The mass media nowadays are our main source of information about what's happening in the world and the impression one gets (1) from them about human nature (2) is pretty depressing. My blood pressure (3) rises every time I switch the television on. Apart from gossip about show star (4) personalities, the picture they paint of human personalities (5) is that they are violent and bloodthirsty. They just report crimes, violations of human rights and the way we are destroying our natural resources (6). They rarely report breakthroughs (7) in science or medicine; it's a bleak picture. Last night, there was a report about a mass break-out (8) from a prison in Chicago during which five prison guards have been shot (9) dead as the prisoners were making (10) their getaway. Then there was the story of someone who has been (11) gunned down by police when he went berserk and massacred ten innocent onlookers (12) in a shopping centre somewhere - again - in the United States. I see now where Hollywood scenewriters (13) get their ideas from. They just turn on the news and they've got themselves a ready-made (14) scenario.
It seems to me that news bulletins (15) have become a form of entertainment.

Thank you very much for this exercise.

Hello over and over again

The mass media nowadays are our main source of information about what's happening in the world and the impression one gets from them about human nature is pretty depressing. My blood pressure rises every time I switch the television on. Apart from gossip about show business personalities, the picture they paint of human beings is that they are violent and bloodthirsty. They just report crimes, violations of human rights and the way we are destroying our natural resources.They rarely
report break-ups in science or medicine; it's a bleak picture. Last night, there was a report about a mass break out from a prison in Chicago during which five prison guards have been shot dead as the prisoners were making their getaway. Then there was the story of someone who has been gunned down by police when he went berserk and massacred ten innocent passers-by in a shopping centre somewhere - again - in the United States. I see now where Hollywood screenwriters get their ideas from. They just turn on the news and they've got themselves a ready-made scenario.
It seems to me that news reporters have become a form of entertainment.
