Testwork “Television” I. Match the description on the right with the programs on the left. 1. a detective series a) people trying to answer questions 2. a commercial b) actors doing and saying funny things 3. soap opera c) a broadcast or published report of events 4. a comedy series d) the animal life of Antarctica 5. a talk show e) guns, murder and police 6. a current affairs program f) a long interview with a famous person 7. a nature documentary g) everyday lives of the same group of people 8. the news h) characters played by moving drawings 9. a quiz show i) a television or radio advertisement 10. a cartoon j) a person telling you what happened today
1. To be honest, I didn't enjoy reading Crackers at all. The storyline so complex that I had to keep going back to reread parts. And the events in the last chapter were too unrealistic to happen in real life!
2. Paul Hopkins' new thriller is quite unoriginal; it has almost the same plot as his first book. It's a shame really because all of his other books have been on all the bestseller lists.
3. I expected Careless Whispers to be just another badly written teenage novel, but the way Beth tries to look after her young sister is really touching. I think it's on its way to become a classic in this genre.
4. If you need something to read this summer while on holiday, this is it! A fast-paced adventure with lots of action and a really memorable plot twist at the end. Hopefully, it will soon be made into a film!
1 I see 2 types of cats. In 1 picture there is a tiger, he is a predator. He mainly lives in Africa. In the second picture, I see cats, they are pets and are needed in order to catch rats at home.

3 Because it's cute and fun to play with.
4 Cattle, or cows (female) and bulls (male), are the most common type of large domesticated ungulates. They are a prominent modern member of the subfamily Bovinae, are the most widespread species of the genus Bos, and are most commonly classified collectively as Bos taurus.
Cattle are commonly raised as livestock for meat (beef or veal, see beef cattle), for milk (see dairy cattle), and for hides, which are used to make leather. They are used as riding animals and draft animals (oxen or bullocks, which pull carts, plows and other implements). Another product of cattle is their dung, which can be used to create manure or fuel. In some regions, such as parts of India, cattle have significant religious meaning. Cattle, mostly small breeds such as the Miniature Zebu, are also kept as pets.
Around 10,500 years ago, cattle were domesticated from as few as 80 progenitors in central Anatolia, the Levant and Western Iran.[1] According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), there are approximately 1.5 billion cattle in the world as of 2018.[2] In 2009, cattle became one of the first livestock animals to have a fully mapped genome
5 The lion (Panthera leo) is a species in the family Felidae and a member of the genus Panthera. It has a muscular, deep-chested body, short, rounded head, round ears, and a hairy tuft at the end of its tail. It is sexually dimorphic; adult male lions have a prominent mane. With a typical head-to-body length of 184–208 cm (72–82 in) they are larger than females at 160–184 cm (63–72 in). It is a social species, forming groups called prides. A lion pride consists of a few adult males, related females and cubs. Groups of female lions usually hunt together, preying mostly on large ungulates. The lion is an apex and keystone predator; although some lions scavenge when opportunities occur and have been known to hunt humans, the species typically does not.
Typically, the lion inhabits grasslands and savannas, but is absent in dense forests. It is usually more diurnal than other big cats, but when persecuted it adapts to being active at night and at twilight. During the Neolithic period, the lion ranged from Central Asia, Southeast Europe to Africa, but today it has been reduced to fragmented populations in sub-Saharan Africa and one critically endangered population in western India. It has been listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List since 1996 because populations in African countries have declined by about 43% since the early 1990s. Lion populations are untenable outside designated protected areas. Although the cause of the decline is not fully understood, habitat loss and conflicts with humans are the greatest causes for concern.
One of the most widely recognised animal symbols in human culture, the lion has been extensively depicted in sculptures and paintings, on national flags, and in contemporary films and literature. Lions have been kept in menageries since the time of the Roman Empire and have been a key species sought for exhibition in zoological gardens across the world since the late 18th century. Cultural depictions of lions were prominent in Ancient Egypt, and depictions have occurred in virtually all ancient and medieval cultures in the lion's former and current ranges.
