Why this matters
Eine Nachrichtensendung im Radio mit etwa 330 Wörtern, und du hörst sie einmal. Sie hat vier Meldungen: ein neues Klimagesetz (was die Regierung vorgestellt hat, was mit Benzinpreisen und Monatsticket passiert, was das Ziel ist, wer es begrüßt und wer warnt), ein Sturm in Hamburg, Arbeitslosenzahlen in Bayern und ein Literaturfestival. Danach kommt das Wetter. Die Fragen folgen der Reihenfolge der Sendung, so wie deine Erinnerung an eine echte Sendung. Du musst trennen, was nur berichtet wird und was als Tatsache gilt. Berichtet wird im Konjunktiv I, der Form für fremde Aussagen, nach erklärte, sagte, teilte mit: das Ziel sei, die Regierung wolle, der Rückgang sei zurückzuführen, die Aufräumarbeiten würden dauern. Tatsachen klingen so: Die Bundesregierung hat … vorgestellt; Der Fährverkehr ist wieder aufgenommen worden. Achte auf den Bau einer Meldung: Ereignis, Einzelheiten, Zitat, Reaktion. Achte auch auf die Wörter aus diesem Abschnitt: Regierung, Gesetz, Preise, Sprecher, Ziel, Umweltverbände, Opposition, Kosten, Arbeitslosigkeit, Rückgang. Die Zahlen (39 Euro, 2035, 289.000, 80.000) tragen die Nachricht, also fang sie ein.
Translation
And now the news. Berlin. The federal government today presented a new climate law. At the core of the law is a step-by-step increase in the price of petrol from next year. At the same time local public transport is to become cheaper: the monthly ticket for bus and train is to cost no more than 39 euros nationwide. A spokesman for the environment ministry explained that the aim was to have significantly fewer cars in city centres by 2035. The government wanted to make the switch easier, not to ban driving. Environmental groups welcomed the plan but demanded an earlier date. The industry association, by contrast, warned of higher costs for commuters and for rural businesses that depend on delivery vans. The opposition announced that it would block the draft in parliament; the vote is planned for the end of March. Hamburg. After the severe storm last night, ferry services in the harbour were resumed this morning. According to the fire brigade, more than two hundred trees were uprooted; nobody was injured. The city said the clean-up would probably last until Friday. On the railways there are still delays, because several lines have to be inspected before they can be reopened. Munich. Unemployment in Bavaria fell slightly in February. The employment agency reported 289,000 unemployed, 4,000 fewer than in January. Its head said the decline was mainly due to the construction industry, which had started earlier than usual because of the mild winter. For the spring a further decline was expected. And finally, culture. The literature festival in Leipzig opened this evening with a record: over 80,000 tickets have already been sold for the three hundred events. The weather: tomorrow variable cloud with temperatures between six and eleven degrees, rain at the weekend. That was the news.
