While visiting Spain with school, your teacher has placed you in a home with a Spanish family for a couple weeks.  Today, however, you find yourself at home alone for a while because everyone is out (at school, at work, or at an appointment).  To ease the boredom, you pick up the newspaper and hunt down the TV schedule.  Check out the following site and then answer the questions given to you on your paper.
