talk show Are you interested in hotline That s a good idea Yet the fact is some people do nothing but break the whole program Some people know little about the topic under discussion Sometimes they even do not know what the host is talking about So the host has to tell the caller what the show is about Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express his hope and show his ignorance Then the host has to answer and explain how silly this is It wastes a lot of time It seems that some people phone the hotlines for fun They just want to let the listeners hear them They do not care about what the topic is whether they themselves are interested in or how silly they appear to be I am really bored by those people It is necessary for the radio station to improve the hotline program In my opinion if a caller does not know what is going on the operator should not let the caller take part in it Some young children phone the hotline in order to take part in games Some radio or TV stations hold the hotline in order to get more money from the children So if your phone fee goes up quickly suddenly maybe your son or daughter often phone hotline There is another hotline Everyone likes it very much It is the hotline for our life such as Mayor Hotline in your city 46 The sentence some people do nothing but break the whole program mainly tells us A radio stations use hotlines in a wrong

the caller s ignorance C because he likes talking to the caller D because of a lot of questions raised by the caller 49 The passage does not tell us the idea A that some listeners phone the hotline for fun B that some people just want to be heard by others C that some people don t care how they appear to be silly D what the hotline programs are 50 The Chinese meaning of the underline word operator probably is A 导播 B 听众 C 医生 D 主持人 C A young man was going to join the army and had to take a medical examination The doctor was sitting at a desk when he went in He said to the man Take your
