Some radio broadcasting stations use hotlines to encourage the listeners to take part in the talk shows
30、. Thats 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 do not even 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
31、a few questions which express his hope and show his ignorance. Then the host has to answer and explainhow silly this is! It wastes a lot of time. It seems that some people phone the hotlines in fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They dont care what the topic is, whether they themsel
32、ves are interested in it or how silly they appear to be. Im totally bored by those people. Its necessary for radio stations to improve the hotline programs.
