VI. Read the passage and choose TRUE or FALSE (1.5 pts)
There is a list of interesting jobs that we’ll never have again, and a town crier is, of
course, on the list. It’s been a long time since town criers worked professionally, so
there are not many people knowing who town Criers were. Today we can only see
them in the movies or at some old tourist sites. Before newspapers were invented, a
town crier, who was usually an older gentleman with a booming voice, always dressed
officially and had a little bell which he carried with him always. His job was to go
through city streets ringing the bell and shouting the latest news as he was walking.
The occupation of the town crier was quickly replaced by radio, television, texting,
internet, and all the marvels of modem technology. Today this occupation exists only
for entertaining purposes and as local folklore. Competitions for the best town criers
are still being held in some parts of the world like America, Australia, Canada and
England.
