Captioned Television

By the 1950s many American families owned television sets. During television’s first 20years, deaf
people (1) most of the fun. They could not hear what was being said and had to guess.

Deaf people who watched television liked sports and action shows but they were disappointed
with (2) programs. If there was a lot of dialogue, deaf viewers couldn’t follow the plot. Even the most
skilled lip readers could only catch part of the talking. This frustrated many deaf people.

In the late 1960s, a man started experimenting. Malcom Norwood thought that deaf people could (3)
television programs, too. He wanted to delvelop captions for the programs. Norwood worked for the
federal government’s Media Services and Captioned films Division at the Bureau of Education of
the Handicapped.

Norwood surveyed many hearing Americans. He wanted to see how they felt about seeing captions on
the television screen. Too many people were against the (4) . Norwood realized he had to develop
another way of captioning – one that would not (5) hearing people.

In october of 1971, Norwood’s (6) signed a contract with WGBH-TV, a public television
station in Boston. WGBH was hired to experiment with captions. They agreed to (7) a captioned
televisiopn program for Norwood. That program was made. It was shown on television and at a
special convention.

The type of captions made by WGBH could (8) on any television. No special equipment was
needed. These were called “ open captions”.

Later, a new machine was invented. This device was made to send signals on a special part of
the television picture. the signals could be captions. if a family had another kind of machine in their
home or in their TV set, then the captions (or signals) would (9) on their television screen. Without
the machine, no captions would be seen. That special machine is called a decoder. it receives the
signals transmitted from the television station, Caption that (10) a decoder are called “ closed
captions”.

1. A. missed B. spoiled C. shared D. created.

2. A. racing B. local C. color D. other.

3. A. write B. recommend C. enjoy D. ignore.

4. A. questions B.law C. idea D. sound.

5. A.interest B. help C. bother D. teach.

6. A.company B. office C. students D. channel.

7. A.make B. do C. habe D. write.

8. A. describe B. confuse C. require D. block.

9. A. appear B. disappear C. show D. happen.

10. A. seen B. put C. turned D. had.

C. Choose From clauses or phrasesfrom A-G the one which fits each gap 1-6. There are one
extra clause or phrase you do not need to use.

A. so that there is little stress B. More important that you are active against
C. When you swim D. Swim slowly at first

E. As well as getting a strenuous work-out F. Whether you enter a pool.

Swimming is an ideal activity. (1)…, you get atotal body work out that combines cardiovascular and
strength benefits. you work your heart and lungs (2) for your upper and lower body . In addition this is
done in a weight bearing (the water bears your body weight) environment(3) to your joints and

connective tissue. It is less important that you are a good swimmer and (4) the resistance of the
waterwhich, in fact, provides much more resistance than air. (5) or other body of water to swim or for
some other fitness activity is not important either since all activities in water will produce varying
degrees of the same effect. We highly recommend swimming as both an excellent aerobic and
cardiovascular activity and a strength and flexibility activity.

In the spring of 1934 , storms swept across the Great Plains, but they were not rainstorms.They were
the result of sun and drought and a terrible wind that blew millions of tons of topsoil from 300,000
square miles in Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, and New mexico. This was the dustbowl. It
burried fences, fields, and homes. It choked cattle and sicken the people who stayed. Three hundred
and fifty thousand settlers fled, many becoming part of a slow, sad caravan along Route 66 to
California.

But wind and drought were not the only factors that combined to creare the DustBowl . Only
fifty years earlier, a capet of buffalo grass had covered the Great Plain , protecting the soil and
retaining the moisture in the ground. By the turn of the century, farmers had settled, homesteading in
regions that had been used as range land. The increased demand for the wheat during World War I
encouraged farmers to plow and plant even wider areas. Forty percent of the land that they plowed up
had nevr been exposed ton rain, wind, or sun before. When the drought and wind came, the land had
been prepared for disaster.

1. With which of the following is the passage primarily concerned.

A. The DustBowl B. The great Plain C. Homesteading D. World War I.

A. passed away B. became ill C. ran away D. gave up.

A. topsoil B. the DustBowl C. wind D. result.
5. It can be inferred from the passage that

A. Ranchers caused the DustBowl by grazing too many buffaloes on the grasslands.
B. The DustBowl was brought to an end by rainstorm.

C. The Great Plain is a wheat-producing region in the United States.
D. All the homesteaders had to abandon their farms during the DustBowl
