Voice 1
Welcome to Spotlight1's listener2 mail program. I'm Adam Navis.
Voice 2
And I'm Christy VanArragon. Spotlight uses a special English method of broadcasting. It is easier for people to understand, no matter where in the world they live.
Voice 1
In today's program we look at what YOU had to say! We will look at comments from programs about radio sex education, going the wrong way, and making a home. Keep listening!
Voice 2
Our first comment today comes from the program "Radio Sex Education." In that program we told about a radio program in Ethiopia called Abugida. This program is for young people, and it is all about sex. It aims to give young people good information about sex. With this good information, they can make better choices. And they can feel more powerful3 making these choices. One commenter said that there is a similar radio program about sex education in Vietnam4. He said that this program changed his thinking about safe sex. This is exactly the goal of the program Abugida. Another commenter from Russia writes:
Voice 3
"This is a very good way to spread information - the way they are doing it in Ethiopia. When I was a child I did not have internet and radio programs in my country. If I had those things I would have been educated5. I would have known6 more about sex than when I was younger."
Voice 1
Commenter Mahn Tu believes the program will have a great influence on its listeners7. He writes:
Voice 4
"The good advice will make people think more before they make a decision about having sex with someone.
Voice 2
Sometimes it is uncomfortable to talk about sex. But it is also really important. We are happy we could share the story of this great radio program!
Voice 1
Our next comments come from the program "Going the Wrong Way." In this program we told the story of American football player Roy Riegels. During a very important game he made a goal for the opposing8 team. He felt shame and disgust9 with himself. But his team leader still encouraged him to go out and play the game again. This story helped people remember that we can always try again when we make a mistake. White Hands had this to say:
Voice 3
"We have made many wrong choices in life. But at the time, we could not know it was a wrong choice. The important thing is not to make the right choice every time. But, we should try to get the courage to return to the right way when we discover we are going the wrong way.
Voice 2
This is very true. Sometimes it is hard to know what the right choice is. It can also be difficult when someone tells us that we are doing something wrong. But another commenter thinks this is an important part of going the right way.
Voice 4
"It is good to be shown the wrong thing you are doing. Repairing the damage helps us continue on the right way. I think the truth leads us to what is good, beautiful, and perfect. Although that way is usually a little difficult, but long."
Voice 1
Nevardo had another idea about this program.
Voice 3
"It is important to know that there is another chance for the human race. And God always provides a help for us."
Voice 2
You are right Nevardo. It is good to remember that we do not have to go the right way by our own power. God can help us through difficult times or situations that tempt10 us. Thank you all for your encouraging words!
Voice 1
In another program we told about homes for people all over the world. For some people home is a place - a building or city. But for others a home is a group of people. In that program - "Making a Home" - we asked what home meant for you. Nyamsuren wrote:
Voice 4
"I am from Mongolia. For me, home is my country and my family. Suddenly, I think that probably, some people who feel they have no home people are not homeless. They have a motherland."
Voice 2
Nyamsuren also went on to write about the common home of people in Mongolia - the ger.
Voice 3
"Gers look like a white round tent and it can be comfortable in any time and all natural conditions. A gers' door is always set to the south. It gives a chance to see what time it is. It is like a sundial – a natural clock. At 12:00 the sun is in front of the door. Gers are wonderful and we Mongolians12 have used it for several thousands of years until now."
Voice 1
Thanks for that interesting information! It is clear why Mongolians have been using this design for so long - it is a good one! Another commenter also told us about their home.
Voice 4
"For me, my home is my relatives and then my friends, and then my city, Rostov. I will not move anywhere. I am happy here in my sweet home."
Voice 2
Thanks for sharing. Listeners, you can still share your ideas about your home. You can leave a comment on the script13 page of this program, Listener Mail 112, or the script page of "Making a Home." Tell us about your home! While you are there, you can also look at and write on our discussion14 boards.
Voice 1
Recently on our discussion boards people have discussed tips for learning15 English, the Spotlight program "Singing Changes Lives," and forming a group that can talk together over Skype.
Voice 2
Yes! Practicing writing and listening is a great idea. Many times we have people write to us for advice. They want to know if we can help teach them English. Spotlight is not a teaching16 program. But, we do offer some chances to practice English. You can listen to or read through any of our programs on the internet. You can download these materials too.
Voice 1
We have also been offering17 extra programming18 on Facebook. There, you may have noticed that we now offer a "Spotlight Word of the Day." In Spotlight's Word of the Day we choose a word from the day's program. When you press "play", you can listen to the word and its meaning.
Voice 2
Also on Facebook, look for our next country week. During the week starting April 4 we will be celebrating the country of Japan! Look for special programs about Japan. Are you from Japan? Have you visited there? Post your pictures of Japan to our Facebook page. You can find us on Facebook by searching "Spotlight Radio."
Voice 1
