Neil
Beth: 我喜欢看电视，尤其是一口气看完喜欢的剧集，例如《环球竞速》。我也喜欢一些真人秀节目，比如《英国烘焙大赛》，因为它有趣，可以看到人们烘焙蛋糕的过程，有时做得很好，有时做得不好，这让我放松。我还迷恋过一些斯堪的纳维亚的电视剧，包括犯罪剧、法律剧和政治剧，因为故事有趣，而且我喜欢听那些语言。
Neil: 我花更多时间考虑看什么电视节目，而不是实际观看，因为选择太多了，但我喜欢看体育赛事直播。我喜欢一些真人秀节目，例如《英国烘焙大赛》，但不怎么喜欢约会类节目和《老大哥》之类的节目。我还最近看了关于战争等严肃话题的纪录片，觉得很有趣。我认为看电视不仅是为了娱乐，还能学习新的知识，这是一种额外收获。我年轻时迷恋一些美国电视剧，因为它们有很大的悬念，让我迫不及待地想看下一集。
