From the start it aimed to be “a place to think”, and it was always designed as something “that the commercial market would never do”, says Roly Keating, its controller and formerly head of arts at the BBC. Its first week’s schedule indeed verged on a parody of non-commercial TV, with township opera from South Africa and a performance by a Senegalese singer in a London church hall. A top-rated show will typically draw some 50,000 viewers – almost negligible in television terms. Yet that narrow appeal makes BBC4 a model of what a publicly financed broadcaster ought to do. It has roamed into territory where its ratings-driven sister channel, BBC1, seldom dares to tread. Despite a tiny 35m budget, it boasts an intelligent prime-time talk show and a world news programme so internationally minded that its London provenance is barely visible. BBC4 may wear its gravity a little too heavily at times, but it supplies a variety and thoughtfulness unavailable on prime time BBC1. The more the other BBC channels chase the ratings, and the more that BBC4 refuses to be dictated to by them, the more the channel looks like a model for what BBC television could look like.It is clear from the passage that, since BBC4 is publicly financed, it ----.Deselect Answer has to give viewers the kind of programmes they want has a large budget with which to work is under no pressure to attract large numbers of viewers is under an obligation to offer a great variety of programme is often severely criticized for the subjectivity of its news programmes None Q. 15 In the passage, BBC1 is described as being “ratings-driven”; this means ----.Deselect Answer it is obliged to put on popular programmes its appeal is a very narrow one it sees BBC4 as its greatest rival it feels very secure and can take risks it never experiments or tries out a new type of programme None Q. 16 Before he took over the running of BBC4, Roly Keating ----.Deselect Answer was involved in commercial TV enterprises was criticized because his programmes were too intellectual and too serious was a severe critic of the BBC1 channel had taken a firm stand against the trend to let ratings dictate programming was arts director at the BBC None Q. 17 According to the passage, the programmes BBC4 has to offer ----.Deselect Answer rarely come up to expectations are varied, unusual and thought-provoking are mostly news programmes and London- orientated are attracting very large numbers of viewers constitute a close rival for BBC1 as regards ratings None Q. 18 It is clear that the writer of the passage ----.Deselect Answer feels BBC4 has not lived up to its aim to be “a place to think” regards BBC4’s budget of £35m as excessive would like to see the BBC1 channel closed down is very impressed by the performance of the BBC4 channel was full of admiration for BBC4’s choice of programme for the first week None Q. 19 Passage for 19 to 23In this century, the wealth and success of nations will depend like never before on the ability to produce and use knowledge.
