ТЕКСТ ДЛЯ АУДІЮВАННЯ
Oprah Winfrey is an amazing person! By the time she was twelve, she had already decided on a career. Not long afterwards, she got her first radio job. Although she hadn’t had any experience, she became a news reporter. When she got her own TV chat show, she had already acted in a major Hollywood film. By the late 1980s, “Oprah Winfrey” had become a household world. Then in 1994 she decided to improve the quality of chat show themes. She also made a personal change. She had always had a weight problem, but in 1995 TV viewers saw a new Winfrey. She had lost almost 40 kilos as a result of dieting and working out. She had also competed in a marathon. She has really been an inspiration to other people.
