Choose the right sentences to complete the article.

Say the words “reality TV” and the show that comes into most people’s minds is Big Brother. 1. There have been varieties in more than seventy countries. The basic form is simple: put a group of strangers into a house, record everything they do and watch how they live together.

2. A similar show, the Real World, was broadcast in 1992 on MTV. But the form really became popular with the success of Big Brother, and it was copied again and again. 3. For examples, in wife Swap, a mother went to live with a family of strangers and tried to run their home.

So what makes these shows so attractive? As we all know, living with people you don’t know is full of pressures and personality problems are common. 4. A TV presenter thought it was all about relationships and real people and if you were not interested in reality TV, you were not interested in people.

But is it healthy to be this interested in other people’s private life? 5. Not everyone prefers such shows, including the first winner of Big Brother, Bart Spring. He said he wasn’t a fan of the programme or of people becoming famous for being stupid.

A. In similar shows, competitors were sent to different places, being with strangers.

B. And what kind of people want to appear in front of TV cameras twenty-four hours a day?

C. Competitors often have to share tasks and this also brings disagreement.

D. Love it or not, the programme is worldwide popular.

Over the last few centuries, there have been many changes in our lives.

To start with, people were not able to travel such a long distance in such a short time in the past. Planes were not very popular at that time because they used to be a very expensive way to travel. Nowadays, we have fast, comfortable cars, and more and more people can travel by plane.

Secondly, in the past, people had to work much harder because they did not have the tools that we have today. Today, most of the difficult and dangerous work is done by computers and machines.

Thirdly, in the past, the living conditions were not as good as they are now. There were no bathrooms or running water in many houses, and many people could not buy things like fridges, TV sets or washing machines. Now, most families have several of these things.

Finally, nowadays, more and more people have the chance to get a good education. In the past, there were fewer schools and the quality of education was much poorer. Also, it is much easier to find the educational materials that you need on the Internet now.

The scientific and technological development in the world is amazing. Life now is much faster and busier than it used to be. And we are still creating new things to make our lives better and easier.
