Task 2. Read the text and answer the questions:
A View on Entertainment in Britain
Some people in England are not happy with local entertainments. For example, Brian Carter, a student, supposes that British viewers often have stuffy, arrogant and smug attitudes. It is can be very irritating.
The irony of the situation that it is possible to write repulsive things about English entertainments, which must be diverting and pleasing.
The British seem not to have determined the notion of what is and what is not suitable snack-food for the cinema. The point is that popcorn does not rustle in a cover and it does not crackle in your mouth. In Britain, however, cinemas realize crisps and candy in plastic packaging. It is a little bit difficult to concentrate and keep you attention while watching a movie when you are sitting next to somebody, who really annoys you with a lot of noise, like rustling, chewing, and etc.
Watching theatres' performances is a little bit better. Britain has scenic traditions which are more opulent and more miscellaneous than in practically any other country all over the world. This is, actually, the nation that has given the world Shakespeare, Laurence Olivier and a special part of London— the West End — included more theatres and original productions than you can imagine. British audiences can be endless with their speech drew out, irritating with their again and again bucko and conceited attitude. The most annoying thing is the permanent attendance of the Royal Shakespeare Company who indeed try to show original pleasure from pretending to spot the most intellectual of puns (various plays on words) or some witty remarks. They then laugh in a theatrical manner to let the surrounding house see that they, like a kind of exception among another people, have the intellect to comprehend the real significance of the play which they are viewing. You can ever note these characters because they glance around themselves purposely a few seconds after they have stopped giggling to verify that their neighbours are looking at them.
Take the cinema, for instance... To view a film you have either to go to one of the enormous complexes that has popped up on the outskirts of cities over the last two years or to stick around the high street cinemas. A visit to the multiplex is a little more funny and pleasurable, because at any rate these picture shows generally have tasty fast food.
British television has the same problems. On the one hand, Britain enjoys one of the best TV production in the world. Soap operas like East Enders are really more exciting and verisimilar than their standard U. S. equivalents because they focus more on characters, acting and plot than on the perfection of hairstyles of the actors.
On the other hand, though, Britain's TV stage directors and producers still manage to let everyone down by making some junk. There is a specific circle of British 'comedians' — men like Brae Forsyth and Ronnie Corbett — whose humour stopped to be comic a long time ago (if it was ever comic at all). Why are they on the TV still? They are a real trash. To make matters the worst, all these stygian and tiresome shows are broadcasted at peak times on weekends' nights. Actually, nobody wants to watch them.
