The Martians are coming!

On August 30th 1938, millions of radio listeners in the USA were convinced that their country was being invaded by Martians. An evening music programme was interrupted by a series of news bulletins, which reported that a meteorite had landed on a farm in New Jersey. Apparently aliens «as large as bears, with black eyes and V-shaped mouths» had emerged from inside the meteorite and were releasing poisonous gas into the atmosphere. Further bulletins told of more Martian landings in other parts of the USA. As the news spread, thousands of people fled their homes to avoid the alien attack. Some people even phoned local radio stations to say they could see a cloud of poisonous gas approaching New York.

Of course, they needn’t have worried. What they were listening to was an adaptation of H. G. Wells’ novel The War of the Worlds, first published in 1898. The director of the radio programme, Orson Welles, could broadcast any play he wanted, so he had asked a young playwright, Howard Koch, to rewrite H. G. Wells’ novel as a series of realistic news bulletins using real place names.

Once people realised that the broadcast wasn’t reporting real events, there was a public outcry. Orson Welles was accused of deliberately causing the panic, and people tried to sue his company and the radio station for millions of dollars. Fortunately, Welles was able to avoid a lengthy court case because he had told listeners that the broadcast was fictitious at the beginning of the programme.

Today, most people’s reaction is that the citizens of America should have realised they were listening to a play. Of course they could have listened to other radio stations to see if the story was real, instead of fleeing their homes. However, this type of realistic radio drama had never been broadcast before and it’s hard to say whether you or would have reacted differently.

Amazingly, the same thing happened when the play was broadcast in Chile in 1944. On that occasion the governor of Santiago even sent soldiers into the streets. Fortunately, they didn’t need to fight an army of Martian invaders.

1) Where did the radio play say that the first Martians had landed?

2) According to the radio play, how did the aliens arrive on Earth?

3) Why did some people phone local radio stations?

4) How was The War of the Worlds different from other radio plays?

5) How did people react when they realised it was a radio play?

6) Why didn’t Orson Welles have to go to court?

7) What happened when the play was broadcast in Chile in 1944?

Speaker 1

You want to know what I think about different inventions? Well, we have lots of useful things and I can’t imagine my life without TV, a mobile or the Internet and the list goes on and on. But what I value most of all is the microwave oven. It is used in my home more that an iron, a toaster or a blender. Who would have thought 25 years ago that the microwave would become so essential? Not only does it help me spend less time in the kitchen, but decreases the number of unwanted dirty dishes too. I think it’s very important.

Speaker 2

I used to think television was the most brilliant invention because you could sit in an armchair and have a window into the world. But in the last couple of years I’ve changed my mind. For me now the best thing ever is the mobile phone. I mean they used to be so heavy and not that attractive to carry around. But now they’re tiny and light — I never go anywhere without mine. And you can buy personalised covers and even change the covers to match what you’re wearing. Some of my friends are so cool — they dye their hair to match their phones and their watch straps as well. I mean how amazing is that?!

Speaker 3

There are so many things that I think I couldn’t live without. My mum moans at me because I can’t be bothered to cook. But I mean who needs to cook when there are so many takeaway places. Nor can I imagine life without radio and TV, but if there’s one thing that’s made a big difference to my life, it’s the cash machine. I can relax about getting money and not rush around trying to get to a bank before it closes. I was always running out of cash but now at any time of day or night I can turn up at a hole in the wall, put my card in and magic — there’s the money! No problem!

Speaker 4

I know there are all sorts of wonderful inventions and it’s easy to take everything for granted. Like electricity — life as we know it would be unimaginable without it, I mean we depend on it for almost everything. But for me personally it’s the car which I think has massively changed people’s lives. I know that holidays in space are more or less a reality now; and you can reach any part of the world by plane. But it’s the ease of the car, the fact that it offers you such freedom. Like you wake up in the morning and think where would I like to go today? And you just do it!

Speaker 5

I think some inventions are such fun. All these computer games, I really love them. And the fact that they’re hand-held is great. They help me relax when I’m feeling stressed and take my mind off whatever’s worrying me, although I suppose I could live without them if I had to. But there’s no way I could live without my e-mail. When we all left school last year, I made sure I had everyone’s e-mail address and that means we all keep in touch and get to meet up with each other. And if we can’t meet, then at least we know each other’s news and what we’re all doing.

Speaker 6

I hate being without my electric toothbrush, but I know that’s silly because most people use an ordinary toothbrush and never think twice about it. But there is one invention which has really saved my life and that’s my electronic diary. My girlfriend bought me one because she got so fed up with me forgetting arrangements. I’ve no excuse now for forgetting anything, even her birthday is programmed into it. They used to be dead expensive but now they’ve come down in price and I use mine all the time.

The Passive is used:

  1. when the agent (= the person who does the action) is unknown, unimportant or obvious from fie context.

Jane was shot. (We don’t know who shot her.)

This church was built in 1815. (unimportant agent)

He has been arrested. (obviously by the police)

  1. when the action is more important than the agent, as in processes, instructions, events, reports, headlines, news items, and advertisements.

30 people were killed in the earthquake.

  1. to make more polite or formal statements. The car hasn’t been cleaned. (more polite) You haven’t cleaned the car. (less polite)
  2. to put emphasis on the agent.

The new library will be opened by the Queen.

Changing from Active into Passive.

The object of the active verb becomes the subject in the new sentence.

e.g.    Picasso painted that picture.

The active verb changes into a passive form and the subject of the active verb becomes the agent. The agent is introduced with by or it is omitted.

e.g.    That picture was painted by Picasso.

After modal verbs (will, can, must, have to, should, may, ought to) we use be + past participle.

e.g.    You can use the machine for cutting bread.

e.g.    The machine can be used for cutting bread.

With verbs taking two objects it is more usual to begin the passive sentence with the person.

e.g.    I sent her some roses.

e.g.    She was sent some roses. (more usual) or Some roses were sent to her. (less usual)

We put the agent (= the person who does the action) into the passive sentence only if it adds information. When the agent is unknown, unimportant or obvious it is omitted. Agents such as people (in general), they, somebody etc. are omitted.

e.g.    Bell invented the telephone.

e.g.    The telephone was invented by Bell. (The agent is not omitted because it adds information.)

e.g.    Somebody murdered him.

e.g.    He was murdered (by somebody). (unknown agent is omitted.)

e.g.    The police arrested him.

e.g.    He was arrested (by the police). (obvious agent is omitted.)

Моя любовь как песня
Которая длиться будет вечно
Моя любовь словно узница в башне
И я тот кто освободит ее
