We are writing to complain about ads on TV. There are so many ads, especially during our
favorite programs. We think they should be stopped for a number of reasons.
Ads are a nuisance. They go on for a long time and there are so many. Sometimes there
seems to be more ads than programs.
Ads are a bad influence on people. They try to encourage people to buy unhealthy food like
beer, soft drink, candy and chips. And they make people want things they do not really need
and cannot afford.
The people who make ads have too much say in what programs people watch. That is
because they want to put all their ads on popular programs that a lot of people watch. Some
programs which are not so popular get stopped because they do not attract enough ads,
even though those programs may be someone’s favorites.
For those reasons, we think your TV station should stop showing ads. They interrupt
programs. They are a bad influence on people, and they are sometimes put a stop to
people’s favorite shows. We are sick of ads, and now we mostly watch other channels.
30. Why do TV stations stop showing some programs, even someone’s favorites ? Because...
A. there are so many ads B. the programs have a bad influence
C. people dislike the programs D. ads interrupt the programs
E. they do not get sample ads
31. We received seven inches of rain in four hours …………… the underpass was flooded.
A. so B. although C. because D. because of E. but
32. A tornado blew the roof off the house, … the family had to find another place to live.
A. so B. although C. because D. because of E. but
33. Some believe dinosaurs died out ……………… a large meteor hit the earth.
A. so B. although C. because D. because of E. but
34. ………………. Bella’s nervousness, she did not pass the driving test.
A. so B. although C. because D. because of E. but
GOOD LUCK
