Mary was very fond of television, so when she met a young man who worked for a television company, she was very interested and asked him a lot of questions. She discovered that he had also worked for a film company, 66) so she asked him whether there was any difference between film work and television work. "Well," answered the young man, "there is one very big difference. 67) If someone makes a mistake while a film is being made, it is possible to stop and do the scene again. In fact, one can do it over and over again a lot of times. Mistakes waste time, money and film, but the audience who see the film when it is finished don’t know that anything went wrong. In a live television show, on the other hand, the audience can see any mistakes that are made. " " I can tell you a story about that, 68) One day, a live television show was going on, and one of the actors was supposed to have been shot. He fell to the ground, and the camera moved somewhere else to allow time for me to run out with a bottle of tomato sauce to pour on to him to look like blood. But unfortunately the camera turned back to him before I had finished, 69) and the people saw me pouring the sauce on to the man. " "Oh, how terrible!" Mary said. "And what did you do" "Well" , answered the young man, "our television director is a very strict man. 70) If anyone makes a mistake, he fires him at once. So I just had to pretend that this was part of the story and eat the man.

Boredom can be a good thing for children, according to Dr Teresa Belton, researcher at the University of East Anglia’s School of Education and Lifelong Learning. After interviewing authors, artists and scientists in Britain, she’s reached the conclusion that cultural expectations that children should be constantly active could block the development of their imagination. British actress and writer Meera Syal grew up in a small mining village with few distractions. The researcher said:" Lack of things to do urged her to talk to people she wouldn’t otherwise have engaged with and try activities she wouldn’t, under other circumstances, have experienced, such as talking to elderly neighbors and learning to bake cakes. " Belton added: "Boredom made her write. Meera Syal kept a diary from a young age, filling it with observations, short stories, poems. The researcher didn’t ignore the old saying the devil finds work for idle hands, though. Belton pointed out that young people who don’t have the interior resources to deal with boredom creatively may end up smashing up bus shelters or taking cars out for a joyride. How about watching TV and videos on the computer The researcher believes that nothing replaces standing and staring at things and observing your surroundings. It’s the sort of thing that stimulates the imagination, she said, while the screen " tends to short circuit that process and the development of creative capacity.
