Exercice 1
Enriqué expresses many opinions during his debate with Brent. What are they? Select all of the statements that apply.

Enriqué expresses many opinions during his debate with Brent. What are they? Select all of the statements that apply.
This is correct. Enriqué says "Your television programs are interrupted by hundreds of commercials telling you what to buy and what to think". A "commercial" is an advertisement (or "ad") for television or radio (often to promote products and services). The periods when "commercials" are shown are often called "breaks", as they are "interruptions".
This is correct. Enriqué says "Americans are immersed in a culture of instant gratification and short attention spans". To have a "short attention span" is to have a very small capacity to concentrate, or the ability to concentrate only for short periods of time. To say that America is "immersed in a culture of instant gratification" is to say that Americans are used to immediate satisfaction of their desires.
This is incorrect. Enriqué says "it's no surprise that you can't concentrate on anything longer than a beer commercial". This does not mean that Enriqué thinks that Americans drink too much beer.
This is correct. Enriqué says "Americans are used to high-scoring, fast-paced sports like basketball and American football." If you are accustomed to (football), you are used to (football) or habituated to (football). "Pace" is synonymous with "tempo", so a "fast-paced (sport)" is a sport that is played rapidly.
