Lesson76 April Fools Day
'To end our special news bulletin,' said the voice of the television announcer,' we
are going over to the macaroni fields of Calabria. Macaroni has been grown in this area
for over six hundred years. Two of the leading growers, Giuseppe Moldova and Ricardo
Brabante, tell me that they have been expecting a splendid crop this year and harvesting
has begun earlier than usual. Here you can see two workers who, between them, have
just finished cutting three cart-loads of golden brown macaroni stalks. The whole
village has been working day and night gathering and threshing this year's crop before
the September rains. On the right, you can see Mrs. Brabante herself. She has been
helping her husband for thirty years now. Mrs. Brabante is talking to the manager of
the local factory where the crop is processed. This last scene shows you what will
happen at the end of the harvest: the famous Calabrian macaroni-eating competition!
Signor Fratelli, the present champion, has won it every year since 1991. And that ends
our special bulletin for today, Thursday, April 1st. We are now going back to the studio.'
