Real life or fantasy?

Do you like"soap operas"? They are called"real life" stories, but how real are they?

Million of people all over the world love watching soap operas. Why arethese shows so
popular? Maybe it's because they are not likereal life at all. Nothing is ever ugly or
old-fashioned. The women are either young and beautiful or old and beautiful. The men
are euther smart and good-looking or stupid and good-looking. No one is ever fat.

Many things are the same about soap operas all over the world. The families are
always very rich. They usually have a family business. They live in very large houses.
They drive fast cars and they wear expensive clothes.

But there are always problems-big problems. Children don't listen to their parents.
Husbands disappear. One day the family business is great and the next day it's no
good. Nothing is ever easy in the world of soap operas.

I think that soap opera makes me happy and relax.
